   Read moreMy family has gone here for many years but today will be the last time. Was told thay my payment method had NEVER been accepted at their store, even though it's the one I've always used. Tyler told me he had "been there 5 years" and never had it been accepted. Sir. I've been coming here since before you were born. You're wrong. I showed you the receipt from 4 days ago and still you wanted to call me a liar in front of a store full of people and then have Jessica snatch my fountain drink away from me before giving me the chance to pull out a different card? You're attitude and rude behavior is and remains unnecessary and uncalled for. If this is how the Redmon family now chooses to operate their business, then my family wants no part. I will be telling everyone I know to go elsewhere. Disappointed, embarrassed, and hurt don't begin to describe how I feel about my experience. You deserve negative stars after today.
ETA: Never once was i loud or rude and not once did I deserve to be spoken...
   Read moreAmazing selection of candies, including some throwbacks that I haven't seen as a kid. Super friendly staff! They have pre-packaged pay by the pound, mix and match wrapped by the pound, SO many kinds of taffy flavors with each being excellent in taste even though I'm not generally a taffy fan, and a counter where shoppers can pick individual by the pound chocolates. MUST STOP IN IF YOU ARE PASSING THROUGH THE AREA!
And, yes, you probably think, "where's pics of the place? Why these bathroom pics?" I could not resist snapping a couple pics. They have the fanciest and CLEAN bathrooms imaginable. As soon as you turn the corner into the room, it's a big WOW factor.
SUGGESTION: plan on this place for a stop along the way for road trips. Everything is clean and well lit; easy off I-44 and back on; and THE perfect place to fuel up the vehicle, everyone use the bathroom (whether they feel like it or not), and grab some snacks...
