Pittsburgh Area Commissary — Local services in Moon Township

Found the store right inside the gate, so very easy to find. No parking close to the store - there was a big area in the front with chairs and tables... The store was set up well and nice and clean, and wasn't busy at all . Was hoping to find prices like I remembered from when I was on active duty .. significantly less than the surrounding area. Sadly, that wasn't the case. Turkey was the same per pound as what I'd purchased from another store a couple of days prior.

The VERY best part of shopping here is being KNOWN; recognized by Army Veteran Jerry's warm welcome at the door, then by cashiers, baggers, people stocking shelves, and the supervisor, as you shop and check out. They remember products you often buy and ask if you need more, or offer to help in other ways. They preserve a community shopping experience that seems no longer available in most venues.
