It is weird to see good people doing their best, dealing with rude customers, taking care of front end business, and that for a couple pennies compared to the thousands taken by the Kroger heads. I want to see clearance goods better labeled, presented to ensure food waste is minimized. Grosses me out how these big brands abuse and manipulate price gouging then brag about record profits while claiming higher prices are due to inflation. What a scam, at least ensure the billions of produce thrown out each year is reduced by incentiving seriously low pricing to tempt consumers to help out your expiring items. Also the rewards are so skewed, gasoline discounts take a while to accumulate, rarely help at all considering gas stations a mile away are cheaper without any rewards discount!

I am very disappointed with the policies of this store. I'm out $75 because of this seemingly…read morenewer policy. I purchased a coffee pot for $50, on sale from $70. After two weeks, it just stopped working. Nothing I did helped. I couldn't find my receipt but the statement on the wall says that Walmart accepts returns without a receipt. Prior to going to the store I called, explained and asked if I could still return it. She said "most definitely". I even asked her if I could use a box from the shelf as a reference for her. She said "yes". However, the service desk staff asked if I had the box which I did not have and I was told I couldn't return it or exchange it. The item is back to the $70 and I guess I could have been shady and said I paid the $70, but I did not, of course. Prior to this incident, I was not allowed to return another item for $25 BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE THE BOX. So I'm out $75 which is significant to me. I'm older and live alone on a fixed income. During this inflation period and previous pandemic, big box corporations have increased their profits ranging from 56% to 450%. That takes into consideration their own shipping expenses etc. This overwhelming profit is that, PROFIT. I constantly find errors with the checkout and, since it is minimal, I haven't brought it to their attention and absorbed their mistake. Another incident that happened at the checkout was truly frustrating. I wasn't out any money from the Walmart mistake, but it caused a ripple effect and cost me approximately $100. It's a long story, but Wendy was at the checkout telling me she was new etc. She was very pleasant but when I left I had been mistakenly charged $79 on my credit card. Walmart said it would be 24 to 48 hours before the amount was applied to my card. Then 72 hours. Then 5 to 10 days. It was 28 days before that was returned. It was a frustrating and exasperating experience. I will never use any card there again. Have had some problems with my debit card and other credit cards but never this bad. Another thing I have noticed and dislike is the practice of no longer selling/supplying brand name items and replacing them with all Equate or Walmart brands. I'm in Kankakee very frequently and with do my shopping at Meijer's or elsewhere in K3 and at Berkot's in Watseka.

The obnoxious record profits and big bonuses paid to the top brass while claiming the hikes on prices are due to inflation has to be one of the greatest scams to Americans. It is time Walmart, Target, McDonald's, and many others recognize their future is entirely stuck in the abilities of everyday consumers to afford basic items, work and receive fair compensation, and ensure the wage gap between board members and new employees makes sense.

There's no streamlined self checkout either with people bogging down with less items and still somehow taking longer than other groceries. I do enjoy their beverages and value.

It has been a couple years since I have been in this place, but I was reminded of it whilst…read moreperusing Yelp here. It is a small store, but actually quite big for a small town shop. They don't have a large selection of more exotic things like dairy-free loafs of bread or frozen mock meats suitable for a vegan, but they do have some Mornigstar Farms items. I would suggest those for vegetarians if it were not for my recent discoveries about GMOs... While it sometimes feels like I am, I am assuming that I am not the only vegan or vegetarian visiting towns such as Monticello who is wondering where to go to get some eats. Anyhow, there is enough here that you can certainly make a meal no matter what your dietary needs. There just isn't much in the way of "quick" foods available here that I could eat if I just wanted to pop something into my friend's microwave. I am thinking that we did find some interesting items that I had not seen elsewhere, but it really escapes me what they were now. (I guess that means I will have to go back!) We were often visiting a friend in the area so we have shopped here when we did not feel like making the trek to Kroger or Walmart. I DO prefer to shop at small, locally-owned stores, but sometimes the hours didn't work for us or there were other things we needed at the bigger places. Everyone really should support this store though since it is such a luxury these days to have a grocery in a small town. It is for that reason that I am giving a four instead of a three because I am happy that it even exists. It was a huge selling point for me when we were considering moving to Monticello. All we have where we are now is a gas station and believe me I am grateful for that much! A grocery store would be heaven!
