“Staff was friendly and opened right on time. They normally have the items I am shopping for. The only negative from my point of view, is the store does always tend to be crammed with carts with items being restocked. They never seem to be caught up on this task.”
“I mainly to to Publix for prescriptions. The pharmacy team is stellar. For the first time ever I had questions about a prescription for my baby and I was VERY impressed with the assistance provided by the pharmacist.”
“Restroom clean main area very clean shelves well stocked I hear alot about this pla e finally went and my goodness it's a New favorite absolutely best coffee and food is good also. Need more non bacon choices. The overall experience is more than what any other place offers they sell way more than just coffee honey is thier main attraction and everything else makes you want to stay in the atmosphere for as long as possible before returning to the busy life outside the building”
“Star reinstated.... bogo tags are on point now for the most part. Star deduction.... Unfortunately the bogo price tags are incorrect on at least one item every time I go to Publix. Still my favorite grocery store, but be aware that just because you see a bogo tag doesn't mean it's actually bogo. Check the app to confirm, or roll the dice.... I love this grocery store! Yeah, you are going to pay up a little but as the saying goes... You get what you pay for! I took 4 lbs of the southern style potato salad from the deli section to a Christmas gathering, and EVERYONE thought it was homemade. It honestly was some of the best potato salad I have ever ate (sorry mom and grandma). I think everyone else liked it as well, the picture speaks for itself. I am updating my review to TEN STARS. This place cares about their customers and it shows everytime you walk through the door. This place is the best grocery store period. Mike drop and what not.... Still the best grocery store in Clemson..... they have set the bar high. An employee saw me looking for a specific cheese, and said that she would check to see if it is something that they can get for me. They continue to impress. Management should be proud of their employees, and themselves.”
“The grocery store is a nice store with lots of varieties and brands. Ingles brands are affordable and good quality. The restroom, however, was disgusting. It is usually well taken care of but today the toilets didn't flush so they were backed up. Toilet paper was out and most of the doors didn't latch. It's nice to have a restroom in the store, but would be nice if it were usable.”
“I shop at Aldi's for my weekly groceries always find great deals and their cheese selection is one of the best selections I've seen with affordable prices... Can't forget shopping for groceries and all of a sudden walk the ever rotating aisle... The AOS.. iykyk... And remembering you need a weed eater ?”
“Cindy was Awesome in helping me with an issue I had at the store! I love Ingles and I appreciate her help so much! ❤️ Sam usually checks me out each week when I visit the store. She is always so friendly and displays excellent customer service! ❤️Thank you both so much!”
“If you’re looking for authentic tacos, Alazan food truck is a must-visit. The flavors are bold and true to traditional recipes, from the perfectly seasoned meats to the fresh cilantro, onions, and tortillas. Everything tastes fresh, not rushed or overly Americanized. The tacos are simple, satisfying, and packed with real street-style flavor. You can tell the people running this truck care about their food and their culture. Easily one of the best spots for genuine tacos on the go.”
“This is a Great place to save money with a wonderful meat counter. With good weekly specials. The employees are all super friendly and very welcoming. I highly recommend it for your next shopping experience. But you will be one of the regulars after that.”
“Easy access! Plenty of parking & close to the doors. Also, sufficient handicap spaces. There is also a well-staffed Deli, which can prepare party trays or dinners with advance notice.”
“Great prices on gas, numerous pumps, easy access. One star removed due to the weird sequence of events required when paying cash and scanning the Ingles card. DO NOT SCAN YOUR CARD AT THE PUMP IF PAYING CASH. They do have a small sticker stating this, but I don't think most people would see it without actively looking for it.”
“Caleb gave me very great customer service!!! I didn’t know the store didn’t take Apple Pay. The left over total was only $3 and some change and he decided to pay for the rest!!! Nicest thing that’s happened to me in a while and he definitely deserves a raise and is the only reason I’m writing this review!!!!”
“I had this store at 4 stars but I'm changing it to 5 because of Dyllan is the deli. That department was Really lacking but not anymore. Thank you, Dyllan for being attentive, polite and very efficient.”
“I have to say this has to be the most organized Dollar General I have ever been in. Let's be honest, most of them are a hot mess express with inventory all over the place. The dedication to organization and cleanliness was evident, and staff was super friendly and helpful. I commend you.”
“Although there are many Dollar Generals in a small radius, this one stands out. Everything is nicely organized, stocked, and every employee has been polite, helpful, and extremely kind.I go out of my way to visit this one over any others.”
“Had problem with gas pump and pressed button twice for help and had to go to the window to get help. Attendant was busy on her cell phone and finally assisted me getting pump to work.”
“I enjoy my local Walmart. It's not so large as to be overwhelming, but large enough to carry pretty much all I look for. My pictures are some of my latest purchases.”
“Most awesome people love them they are really cool and respectful so if patronize them please behave be respectful he or she might not say anything but ...please handle your kids this is a mindful establishment for the community dont go in there using them words please they good people”
“Going to the Walmart in Central was surprisingly nice compared to the other local Walmarts. It wasn't crowded, they were well stocked and the employees were helpful.”
“They have everything! I can only knock off a star because of how unhelpful the cashier there was so unhelpful on finding things...but thus may have just been the one cashier so i can mark my experience any lower!”
“Love this store but the receipts are still not printing correctly. Please correct this. I use the Fetch app to get points from my receipts & they have to be clearly printed. Thank you!!”
“I go in this store two or 3 times a week. I tried to avoid it months ago when you had an older man who worked there, manager I think. When I checked out today I asked the employees for their names. Freddy and Wynes are great! Sometimes people struggle bringing in a cart from the cart rack outside, Freddy will run open the door for you. Even the lines when you checkout are shorter than what they use to be, wait time is less. Both of these employees are happy to see you when you go in there. This is the best help you have had at this location in the few years I have moved to Central. Nice to go in and the employees help you use your coupons instead of be mad you are. From a local who shops there often, please hold on to these employees. Very few places have good customer service any more.”
“Everyone there is friendly and very helpful. They all joke with me when I come in. We know each other by name. I have zero complaints. If someone posts negative statements about the Pickens Ingles I will have to call them Karens.”
“So happy to have a genuine alternative to the run down "convenience" stores in our area that are poorly stocked and very expensive. The new store is attractive, the staff is helpful, and they are always getting in new product.”
“I am so grateful to the staff working at this pharmacy! Today I went to pickup my prescription and found out it’s not covered by my insurance and would cost me $170! The manager and pharmacist went out of their way looking for a similar prescription they could find that wouldn’t cost a fortune, checking their database and over the counter stuff. They even called my doctor asking for an alternative! Eventually, they were able to find the same type of prescription from a wholesale supplier at 3rd of the price! Thank you so much for helping me!”
“Beth in the Pharmacy department was amazing!! My prescription was $187 total and without me saying a word she found a prescription card discount that brought my total down to $97!!! She is amazing!! Thank you Beth!!!”
“Oh my gosh!!! Call the Coast Guard!!! Someone working there didn't have a mask on! You really should get a reality check. The world won't end because of people not wearing a mask. There's far worse things in this world than Charlie one nine lady. Get over this mask garbage.”
The Cincinnati-based supermarket giant will open about 110 new stores in fast-growing markets by 2029 and introduce three updated store formats, executives told investors Oct. 20 at the company’s Investor Update in New York. Kroger already runs about 2,700 stores in 35 states. The formats come in three sizes, a bit like small, medium and large, matched to each market. Mary Ellen Adcock, Kroger’s executive vice president and chief merchant and marketing officer, walked through the lineup.
Walmart shoppers want a head start on the holidays, and money explains a lot of it. Some 44% of respondents call affording the holidays their top stressor, and 61% say holiday costs shape their shopping mood. Asked what would make the season easier, 70% picked lower prices and 57% picked more deals and promotions. Convenience ranks lower: 30% want one-stop shopping across categories, and 20% want faster delivery.
Walmart wants your groceries at the door before the ice cream softens. On May 29, the retailer said its 30-minute-or-less delivery had reached 33 U.S. markets, adding a wave of new cities across the Northeast. Shoppers in those areas can order from more than 100,000 items, everything from fresh produce and baby formula to pet food, electronics, cold medicine, and prescriptions. Behind the scenes, the service leans on Walmart's store network and an algorithm that factors in order size, available drivers, and distance from the store.
Trader Joe's keeps adding stores, and shoppers keep showing up. The California grocer has marked nine more locations as "opening soon," pushing its expansion into new corners of the country. The grocer also took first place in the American Customer Satisfaction Index's 2026 supermarket rankings. It has held a spot near the top of that list for years.
Target is rolling out its most ambitious store overhaul in more than ten years, with plans to remodel over 130 locations and open 30 new stores across the country this year. The retailer is also putting money into supply chain technology upgrades to keep pace with how shoppers buy today.
