They're not rude, per se, but they're not not rude if that makes sense. Last time I was there the two folks behind the counter were having a LOUD conversation about something and did not let my presence at the register deter them from continuing their LOUD conversation. It's just a bit jarring. Sand the edges off, ladies. Make some better eye contact and save the decibels and gossip for the bar after work.

Wawa has made it to the Valley, officially opened today August 15th at 8 a.m. The grand opening…read moreceremony was nice and many from the community attended. The store itself offers a couple of self-checkout lines, attendant lines (2), made-to-order kiosk (3), self serve coffee and drink stations, lottery machines, mobile pick-up, a small section of convenience items, pre-made food and pastries, as well as tobacco and alcohol. Compared to other locations, I felt this store was very small and offered a lot less than other Wawa's I have shopped at (it could be that we are located in a smaller area). My one complaint is the pre-made heated food was burnt, my husband could not finish eating his sausage croissant, we are understanding- it's first day and your still trying to adjust QC and the like. There is parking directly in front of the store and as well as on the left of the store (if facing it). There are several gas pumps for those needing fuel. Overall, it was a nice Wawa, I just wish the store itself was a little bigger and they had a wider selection of items. I'm still very happy that Wawa has come to down, I only wish I would have gotten there a little early to get some swag (the shirt). The goose was very friendly and engaging:)

Less expensive at the Wawa.

This was meant to be a quick stop, but ended up taking a bit longer than expected. Pulled in and found a spot. Opted to park a few spots down from the doors and make our way inside. Made a b-line to the facilities. The men's facilities were in working order. However, my colleague wasn't having as much luck as I did. I made my way outside to wait on her and was informed that one of the stalls was not in working order. Before we headed out of here we were planning the rest of our day. How long it was going to be to get home and where to get lunch. Even though we were parked in the lot, we didn't feel rushed to get going. Decent stop, well used location.

The employees were friendly and courteous, which is why I'm giving it two stars instead of one. Beyond that, the store looked tired and poorly maintained. Things that should be routine--such as working entrance doors, clean facilities, and employees wearing uniforms that present a professional appearance--simply weren't up to the standard I've come to expect from Sheetz. I also continue to notice inconsistent fuel offerings from one Sheetz location to another. My home store has consistently offered 88 octane for years, while other locations do not. After learning that Sheetz is company-owned rather than franchised, this inconsistency is even more disappointing. When every location operates under the same ownership, customers should be able to expect the same brand standards regardless of which state they're in. I hope Sheetz takes a closer look at maintaining older stores so they reflect the same quality and professionalism found in their newer locations. Right now, the experience is simply too inconsistent.

Costco had repeatedly texted me that my glasses were ready, so I came in specifically to pick them up. There was no line, and staff had time to speak with me, but I was told I would have to wait while they finished assisting another customer. I explained that I could not wait. If Costco is going to repeatedly notify customers that their glasses are ready for pickup, I believe there should be a reasonable way for someone to simply hand over glasses that have already been purchased and paid for. Customers picking up completed orders should not feel like they have become unimportant once the sale is finished. Unfortunately, that was the message I took away from my experience today: the attention was there before the purchase, but not after. I would recommend buying glasses from an optical provider that makes customers feel valued both before and after they pay.

My daughter loves and introduced us. So with UVA move-in inexperienced a new store and was impressed. They offer nearby surface parking, but at peak times it's challenging. The lot is a bit tight and weekends congested. All good though and no debris. My Saturday experience on a UVA move-in would not be typical. So in my opinion it really tested them. It was crazy full, but still stocked. The staff was working hard to ensure customers had the products they needed. Many of the staff i encountered said hello and was working hard! Although Trader Joe's stores are smaller than traditional types of groceries like say Kroger they pack a ton into their space. TJ's is best known for their frozen foods and there has not been a single item I have been disappointed with. However like any product from Trader Joe's if you are not saturated shied bring it back for a refund, just keep the container and receipt. Checkout was smooth and cashier friendly. Bring your own bags and save some. My daughter will be a regular.

I have my favorite Trader Joe's items, and I was surprised how many of them were absent. But I certainly found things worth buying at a decent price. Their oat milk chocolate is really an excellent entry into the non-dairy scene, and I like having steamed lentils to add protein to my dishes. Even when I don't find everything I want due to limited selection, I don't find visiting one of these stores to be a bad decision.

The extra large toilet paper rolls were on top of the dispenser instead of in the dispenser.

In the past when I have shopped at Giants I have went to the front desk and complained but no permanent changes are ever made. So although I like Giant's foods and workers, I try not to shop there as often because the bathrooms can easily spread germs. It appears that they may be cleaned at best, once a day. Yuk, yuk, yuk.

For a gas station without much around, it was a good meal at a reasonable price. I went with the 3-piece dinner, which gets you a thigh, wing, drumstick, and two sides. There were a few options and I went with scalloped potatoes and onion rings... Oh, and a dinner roll. For $9.99 it felt pretty reasonable. Chicken and sides were warm. Chicken was crispy, good seasoning, but not complex flavor. Onion rings are real onion rings (not minced) and batter fried. Scalloped potatoes were better than expected and they were a decent portion. In the end, it was good fried chicken from a gas station, though I don't think I'd go out of the way for it. Driving past at meal time and it's a reasonable option that won't break the bank.
