Tom Thumb

Very good Tom Thumb, always clean. Friendly staff. The Starbucks in here does top notch drinks!
Changing to a Minyards soon!

This is by far the best pharmacy I’ve ever used. I’m an RN, so safety is a big deal to me, and they have NEVER, in almost ten years of service, made a mistake on my drugs. They are friendly, fast, helpful to the extreme, and go way above and beyond standard and usual pharmacy practice. I highly recommend this pharmacy and its wonderful staff.

We used to use the Walgreens across the street for all our prescriptions. Finally got fed up with the almost certain half hour or so wait each time we were there. Switched to Tom Thumb and are much happier. Professional staff, our co-​pays go on our rewards card credit, and hardly ever a wait.

Nice clean store, and they almost always have better gas prices than others in the area. Gas perks program on top of that. Prices on groceries are hit and miss, but normally a little higher than the competition. Parking lot here can be a little bit treacherous. My one weird gripe with Tom Thumb is that their online circular is impossible to read.

I like this Tom Thumb. I need to get the guy’s name who is my normal cashier… I have only encountered one rude woman who checked me out, but normally everyone (particularly the boys) are friendly and helpful.
I read some of the other Unilocalers’ experiences with meat and produce and boy did they suck. I’ve purchased pounds and pounds of pork loin from this location and never encountered a problem. I have not purchased seafood though (I do normally save my salmon purchases for Market Street or Central Market). I’ve also purchased ground beef, chicken breasts, a whole ham and a few produce items without being disappointed (though I usually save the bulk of my produce purchases for Sprouts).
Overall I’m a fan of the store. I score good deals with couponing and I get gas like $ 2 off with all my points. The few times I’ve had issues with pricing and coupons, customer service cleared it fast and without giving me grief. My weekly trip is tomorrow :).

I love this store. It is super convenient for me to just pop in and out of this friendly neighborhood Tom Thumb. The staff is always smiling and helpful and the Starbucks baristas are a hoot. The store is always very clean and stocked well. The only reason they don’t get 5 stars is because their prices are pretty high compared to other grocers.

Tom Thumb has really come around since I stopped shopping here in 2007. They finally figured out how to manage ordering to where items are in stock on time! The produce quality has improved slightly. However, if you’re looking for chiles or habanero peppers, look elsewhere, because those are still pathetic looking.
The meat department is superb, the best steaks I’ve ever grilled came from their «Rancher’s Reserve.» The meat has the right amount of «marble» for the best taste, and perfect tenderness.
Overall, they’ve regained my patronage, and I’m confident they will continue to improve. If Tom Thumb would be more diligent in the produce department, I would give a 5 star review

YEESH! I don’t know what corporate complaint the guy that posted before is talking about, but I can only imagine what went wrong.
Hubby and I didn’t get ten feet into the produce section before we noticed that it was almost empty and everything was really poor quality (i.e. bruised fruit, old bananas, gross potatoes). Tom Thumb usually charges a little more than other stores, so I expect better quality, but this place was a wreck.
What was really funny was on our way out we noticed another family leaving and they said they were going to Albertsons. We followed suit, and I recommend you do as well.

I emailed corporate about my experience. Judging from the response I got, they really don’t care. It was a standard reply stating they were sorry and to have a nice day.
