AVOID SHOPPING HERE!…read more I am very mindful of how I treat people who work at grocery and convenience stores because I know they have a difficult job. They're putting their health and safety at risk as much as other first responders but without the recognition or appreciation other high profile professions get. Many of them are our kids, our older relatives who do this to get out of the house a couple of days a week. I have great respect for them. That being said, this store is AWFUL! I no longer give them my money. The majority of the staff is rude and poorly trained. The store is often dirty, the produce is dirty and old, there are always piles of boxes and packing materials in the aisles but no one shelving merch. I have had to hunt down a cashier on several occasions because two of them would be standing in an aisle gossiping with each other and no one is at the register. And forget finding a manager, she's never anywhere to be found. She's either "not in" or "in the back" paying no attention to the store conditions, the customers, or the staff. For a short period of time there was male manager (or assistant manager) that seemed to be cleaning the place up but he's long gone. the new woman managing (or assistant managing) appears to be operating a kind of mean girls club that seems to get satisfaction from trash talking other customers and staff they don't like. I agree with Amanda Rose H, years ago the staff were everyday helpful, friendly, polite people. Now they're aggressive, rude, and confrontational. The environment in this store is so toxic that, even though this store is around the block from my home, I will go out of my way to stop anywhere but here for my milk and bread. Without going into detail I've told my adult sons especially to stay away from there. Just not a good place for them to be!

But then Dollar General opened and shined a ray of hope on a grocery-less town. Really quite convenient. I mean they will have probably 40-50% of what you need. But lets be honest, your going to Walmart for most of your items 1-2 times a month anyways. But say you run out of sugar, or you need some bread, or even a gallon of milk, it's alot easier to just run to Dollar General and grab it than make the pilgrimage to Walmart. We needed this store years ago when the High School was open. Glad to have it now.

The store itself was laid out nicely, food items in one area, general cleaning products, clothing, etc. However, the inside was a little dingy and had definitely seen better days. The employee I asked was nice and helpful, which was a pleasant surprise. There weren't many other customers in the store (maybe one or two) and the place seemed dead. Overall, there were plenty of items for $1 but not enough to perk my interest.
