I have been coming here for decades and I love the upgrade the cashier remembers me and is very nice and respectful and helpful I’m handicap so I’m fresh out my wheelchair and he grabbed everything I needed for me they are the best come one come all to a store with respectful people and all are given special treatment keep up the good work guys even though most stores don’t last this long I love it

They've got a ton of stuff here and some brands I've never seen before. Parking lot is super small but the store has a surprisingly large selection of stuff. Cool glass! Prices are pretty decent!

Since the man in the store cared enough to argue back and forth (literally back and forth repeatedly) with me about whether I should give my own money to unhoused people hopefully he cares enough to read some education. If YOU don't want to give money, you don't have to. If YOU want to only donate to charities, you can! Why giving money to a homeless person doesn’t maintain “the cycle”: • The cycle isn’t created or sustained by generosity — it’s sustained by deprivation. Homelessness and poverty are products of unaffordable housing, low wages, inaccessible healthcare, addiction without treatment options, and lack of safety nets. The problem isn’t that people get “too much help” — it’s that they don’t get enough. Refusing someone $10 doesn’t bring them closer to housing or stability. It just leaves them hungrier, colder, or in more pain that day. • A small act of relief isn’t the same as perpetuating a problem. My $10 doesn’t fix the systemic issue — but it can make a miserable day a little less unbearable. It’s not a solution, it’s a reprieve. I’m not reinforcing homelessness; I’m acknowledging humanity within it. • People don’t “learn responsibility” through deprivation. Withholding help doesn’t teach resilience — it teaches hopelessness. The idea that people will “hit rock bottom” and then get better assumes they have access to ladders when they fall. Most don’t. They need stability, not punishment. • Addiction doesn’t negate someone’s need for compassion. If someone uses what I give them to get through another day — even through drugs or alcohol — that tells me the world has been unbearable enough that survival itself requires numbing. I can’t fix the cause, but I can ease the suffering for a moment. That’s not enabling addiction; that’s refusing to dehumanize people for their coping mechanisms. • Individual giving isn’t the same as systemic neglect. The government and institutions have abandoned many people. Mutual aid — direct giving — is a way of redistributing compassion in a world that withholds it. I can’t rebuild the system, but I can choose not to withhold care in the meantime. Why I Give Directly Instead of Only to Charities • Charities decide what people need. Direct giving lets people decide for themselves. Charities are structured around categories — food, housing, hygiene, job programs — but real life doesn’t fit into neat categories. Maybe someone needs a bus fare, a phone charger, a clean pair of socks, or yes, a drink to get through withdrawal symptoms. Giving directly lets them choose how to meet their needs, not someone else’s version of them. • Direct giving restores dignity and autonomy. When I hand someone money, I’m saying: I trust you to know what’s best for you. That trust is radical, because society constantly tells unhoused people they’ve forfeited the right to make choices. My $10 isn’t just money — it’s respect. • Charities can’t reach everyone, and they often have barriers. Many shelters and aid programs have rules — sobriety, ID requirements, curfews, gender restrictions — that exclude people who are most vulnerable. Direct giving reaches those who fall through every institutional crack. • One approach doesn’t replace the other. Supporting charities is great — they can address structural needs like healthcare or housing programs. But direct giving fills the human gaps: it’s immediate, flexible, and personal. The two aren’t mutually exclusive; they just operate on different levels of care. • Poverty isn’t a moral failing — it’s an economic and systemic one. People don’t become homeless because they lack character. They become homeless because rent, healthcare, and survival have become inaccessible. Denying help on moral grounds doesn’t solve that; it just deepens the suffering.

I strongly recommend this business. The proprietor of this establishment had an opportunity to do what some businesses do and jack up their prices while pretending to give you a huge discount. Instead, the kind and generous gentleman gave me the deal of a lifetime on some collectible items and absolutely made my day. It was like Christmas and my birthday all in one.

Take it from a non-smoker (bought a carton of cigarettes for a friend), these guys are awesome. Knowing very little about cigarettes, the guy still made sure to ring up the cigarettes in such a way to give me the best price that was inclusive of a BOGO 50% deal Camel had. Friendly, too. Lots of stock of all kinds of products. Highly recommend!
