Customer service. The last time I was in there and actually purchased something, the person at the checkout was very rude.

It's a thrift store. Yelp seems to think is something else. Clean and big. Mostly clothes. Shelves were kind of empty today.

This community area food bank is needs-based that depends on strict parameters established by…read moreUnited Way. Even if you do not think you qualify, it's always good to check. You can check by calling 211 (United Way), or direct at 423.265.8000. They do a good job in providing basics, but you don't get to choose and you get what you get. Our voucher included lots of canned vegetables (some smashed beyond usable), a gallon of 1% milk (expires 4.11.20), a 10 pound bag of potatoes, a small jar of Jif peanut butter and a large bag of yellow onions, plus some odd items like jarred marinated artichokes and a huge cottage cheese that expired 4.8.20. We picked up this food on 4.9.20, so I highly caution you to check your expiration dates before you eat anything. I do feel as though I shouldn't complain at all because United Way is providing this food free of any cost. That being said, it's far from what I would buy for my family had they put the money directly in my hands. We did receive some strange items, such as a "discontinued" and expired-a-month-ago Wal-Mart item of 'blue fondant' and a set of decorating tips (without bags) :P. Just for the heck of it, I opened the fondant and it was harder than play-doh. I looked further and tossed 90% of expired food. :/ I would like to see them provide some fresh items with the canned foods and less snack-type 'Little Debbie' items. I get the Little Debbie though, as their manufacturing plant is located here in Tennessee. Even those items were expired a month ago. Some off-name granola bars expired this past January. I really was disappointed not to receive fresh fruits and vegetables. Oranges, lettuce, celery and garlic all would have been more appreciated than a sugary children's cereal and snacks. Maybe even a few fruit snack packs that don't require refrigeration and a loaf of bread would have been better choices than some that they picked. All the workers and volunteers wore masks and gloves and practiced social distancing amid our current coronavirus status and they also were very polite and respectful. They even loaded the food into my vehicle. But they do not allow anyone to come inside and I glimpsed a refrigerator full of fresh produce and stacks of bread. You do know you can freeze bread, right?
