“Best fried chicken! I tried to order fried chicken from Tri-Star this morning but, apparently, they'd taken their phone off the hook, constant busy signal. I'd always heard that the chicken at my local Get n Zip was good, so I gave them a call. I can't say enough good things about my experience. The woman who answered the phone and took my order was extremely pleasant. The chicken was ready on time and to die for. No more Tri-Star for me!”

“Usually the best price for fuel in the area. But, they need to fix the approach angle of their parking lot. Fine for trucks, but most cars scrape the under carriage getting in and out on to the street. Ouch! It won't keep me from going there, l just go in through the diesel fuel area where it is much more level ?”

“CVS Kilmarnock truly went above and beyond today trying to get a medication filled for me. I was pressed for time trying to leave to catch a flight. The med wasn’t in stock, and when my doctor called in an alternative, they had it filled and called me within an hour to tell me that it was ready. Everyone I talked to was helpful and pleasant! I am very grateful for their care.”
