Hank's

This is a store that a lot of the locals swear by. It is clean and neat and there are a lot of items in there I don't see at chain supermarkets. The deli is great and the baked goods are to die for. So what is the problem? Hmm...well, I'm cheap. I think that's the only problem I see. The sign says Hank's Thriftway, but I can not see how Hank finds his prices thrifty. An example...a dozen eggs for almost two bucks. I can get same dozen eggs for 1/2 the price at my local Albertsons. In all fairness Hank's does run some weekly deals that are really good. This is to draw one in. After that, just buy what is on sale and run out, the rest is going to cost you. Hanks is very clean and the people are VERY friendly. If you have a few bucks to spare it's the place to shop. If you are paying off old student loans, a car or two and have a mortgage and child care, you may want to shop someplace where you can pinch those pennies a bit tighter. more

Hanks Grocery is a small chain. They have weekly sales that are too good to pass up. The store is always clean. The employees are friendly and helpful. Our family has been shopping there for the past five years. Most of the employees have been working there for at least as long as we have been shopping there. Due to it being a smaller in size, they do have a limited selection of items. They have a pharmacy, deli, bakery and a great meat department. One day, one of the employees was shopping herself before she went home, and saw that I was looking for something, and asked if she could help, and stayed to help me, even though she was off the clock. This is how friendly they are. Hanks still has great home town service and feel, there baggers still take your cart to your car, unload and bring in the cart, all with a smile. more
