I love old general stores like this. The old wood planks give this place so much character, and…read morejust imagine the stores those walls could tell if they talked! The general store itself carries a wide variety of items from food, to pet essentials, to ice cream, to crayons and pvc pipes. If you need it, chances are you will at least find some kind of compromise. While shopping I experienced a wonderful surprise when the sweetest kitty came walking up to me. I was curious if he was a cradling kitty, lap kitty, or only touch me when I want to be touched kind of kitty. If you're a cat or animal person, you know exactly what I mean. To my extreme delight she allowed me to pick her up and walk around the store with her. Her purring was so loud you could probably hear it on the other side of the store. Samsung made my heart so happy that day! Come for what you need, and stay to give this sweet girl love! You will not be sorry.

Okay, I may be biased because of the kitty but having visited a handful of remote areas, I've…read morelearned to appreciate the essentiality of the general store. They're stores that "generally sell all the things". This shop definitely achieves that. The day before, we were hoping to go to a grocery store but of course there aren't any. We happened upon a "market" which was nothing more than a gas station mini mart that didn't carry much at all. I had lectured my cousin at that point that the place to pick is always the General Store. One day later, we came here. It was a bit musky and run down looking, but the lady working there was super nice and the shop itself had TONS OF STUFF. Need pvc piping? This is your spot! Need random fishing supplies, you can get that here! Missing your pet cat at home? Come here and meet Samsung and make up for lost cuddles! Okay okay, in all seriousness though, we came here for a resupply on foods. We were able to purchase ground beef, pasta sauces and organic pasta! There was also a huge selection of ice cream and ice cream bars too. Not too much for the vegans, but that's to be expected. HOWEVER there were two instant noodles that were vegan/vegetarian-friendly, which was more than enough to make me happy. I didn't buy anything but was thoroughly impressed with my exploration of their curation of "general offerings". There were hatchets, ice scrapers, mops, cleaning supplies, random souvenirs and pretty much anything you can think of that you might need to get when staying in a cabin for a few days. One bummer was they sold out of eggs, but at least they carry them! Did I mention you need to visit because of the kitty? She's the cutest and had an adorable bed set up in one of the aisles. Sorry I didn't get a pic of it but just look at the kitty, Samsung!

Talking to ai chat, and ai rep, I got no where. But once they sent me to the girl in drive up and go I was taken care of. She was so nice and said they will pick the order for me again and make sure I don't get the same doordash driver again. She even called me later to tell me the driver has the groceries in the car and on the way. Once they arrived I opened the door to a small plant and a sweet handwritten note apologizing from drive up and go. It made my day!

Very unprofessional, condescending and outright rude from someone who serves the public. SMH. Spoke to an associate concerning this matter the following day and he said quote "he's been rude to several patrons that I've seen since he's been here". I'm one of a few in charge of a multi million dollar company and this matter would have been addressed immediately.

Look. You need to grade Winco on what I call "the Winco curve."…read more The store is clean and fairly well organized. They have several items you can't find anywhere else in the area. The prices are great, much lower than Freddy's or Safeway. They have a great bulk section, the only bulk section I've found in the area. Spices, candy, pasta, flours, and more can be found in their bulk section. They don't take credit cards and you have to bag your own groceries, so keep that in mind. This is considered the "poor" grocery store. But I'm not poor, and I like to shop here. Yes, you might end up behind someone in line with two carts full of groceries, and paying with a combination of cash, check, and EBT, but the savings are awesome and the checkout process is relatively quick regardless. I love Winco and if you don't you might be a snob. Bonus fact: "Winco" is an acronym for "Washington, Idaho, Northern California, Oregon."
