7-11 has been around for so long now. I think it really deserves a name change now that it is more like a 24-7 sort of a place, rather than a place that is open from 7a.m to 11p.m. This store is like your typical convenience stop, filled with newspapers, maganizes, dairy products, snacks, etc. I, too, am a big fan of the slurpees here. The classic cherry slurpee is a must have for me as soon as the weather starts to get warm. Just be careful how fast you sip that thing because you can get a case of major brain freeze if you sip too fast!

This is one of my favorite produce stores. This store carries every kind of fruit and vegetable. The prices are real low. There is always a crowd here, especially on weekend mornings. There are always people cramming down the aisles bagging up their favorite fresh fruit and vegetables. I always come here to load up on fruits. I find the service here to be very quick. I do not have to wait in line very long.

This is one of those small "we sell everything and anything" type of stores. I wouldn't count on them for top quality food or anything, but they are pretty good if you just want a cold pop, need a lottery ticket, newpaper or if you are having a snack attack and want some chips. They also sell magazines and stamps (although the price of one stamp seems to keep changing, depending on the mood of the clerk :) If he likes you, it's less, if he doesn't, you could pay a buck for it!

This deli stands apart from the others because of its miniature size. You won't find much here in the typical scope of most markets. This place is tiny and focuses entirely on its meats, and it does so with an eager passion. You get a ticket and you wait your turn and you will not be disappointed by the quality of their meats. They also showcase some homecooked goods. They have a variety of soup broths and maybe a borsch or two. They might have some deserts on display as well.
This place stands out in my mind from the time that I was a little girl for something completely unrelated to meats, however. The night before Christmas is a day of fasting so most families make a famed mushroom soup. During that season you can come to this deli and buy your own string of the finest dried mushrooms the world over. They will cost you a hefty penny but they are divine!

LIke most grocery stores of its kind, the quality isn't phenomenal. But that is to be expected and therefore we accept it. They have a decent selection of produce, snacks and emergency supplies. I'll only go there in a hurry because there aren't may other "grocery" options super close to Apple. Occasionally, I'll stop in for some bread and lunch meat and call it a sandwich. It's a little healthier and cheaper than McDonald's.

This store has good quality meats and produce, including cantaloupe, apples, strawberries, as well as Mexican specialty veggies. It is sometimes hard to find someone here who speaks English, so don't come here if that's important to you. Dont' come here for regular goods (cereal, crackers, etc) they're quite expensive, but you can get bargains on the fresh food.

This is the best store for Turkish groceries in the whole Midwest. They have an amazing selection of Turkish, Middle Eastern and Mediterranean goods. Prices are reasonable and the staff is friendly. They just moved from their Devon location to East Dundee but I am sure they kept the quality. They also have a small counter and seating to enjoy lunch specials and delicious Turkish tea. Most of their business is through the internet, so you can also order from www.bestturkishfood.com.

A great, small grocery store that offers everything the big chains do (maybe not quite the selection, but everything you need is there). But - unlike most of these small stores - this one isn't more expensive than the big stores so you can actually afford to do all your grocery shopping here.
Also has fresh herbs, fruit, etc. and a full deli.
Super-fast check-out people get you out of there fast.
