“Once you get to know what they have in stock, and on sale consistently, it's a smart first stop for savings. Most of the time, it's pretty fast getting though the check stands. Some items do run out temporary but, usually show back up before too long.”

Grocery Stores
“Almost a five star, a little understaffed at times, one completely rude female cashier but the rest are always cheerful and absolutely amazing. Places is usually cleaned very well and easy to find what you need.”
“I was just passing through on my way to buy a rototiller I found on FB marketplace and stopped here for a cold drink. The staff was very friendly and made my visit very nice. They seemed to have a little bit of everything. I recommend stopping here if you’re in town!”
“It is expensive (hint: much less expensive if you download their app and look for savings there) but they have a good selection of anything you might need. The store is always clean. Lines for cashiers can be frustratingly long at times.”
“best and only pumpkin patch in the area!! pick your own pumpkin from the field and then end your visit with some yummy treats from the snack shake. there's also numerous farm animals to see including a giant turkey (that I'm sure come November will be a goner lol)plus it's a working farm which means you're not only supporting a local business but a long standing farming family in Nevada county!!love the bierwagons and wouldn't ever go anywhere else!”
“Arts station is our go to station when we need gas for the motorcycle, car and tractor. It's easy to get in and out. Art is a great man, always asks how we are.”
“Rolled up at 9pm the other night nit realizing the time and, the door was locked. Bummed I missed out on grabbing a beer turned to leave when the door popped open and I was invited in to shop! A simple act that was well received and will definitely be remembered. Thanks guys!!”
“One of the best micro stores in town, great selection for such a small store, very friendly staff. If you need anything last minute, or late in the evening I would stop here. Even some basic tools and camping supplies can be found here.”
“Respectful employees, they have just about everything you need and priced very well. Big parking lot and and friendly customer service plus the new remodel looks really good.”
“Great customer service, good deals, everything tastes fresh, everything I want as far as drinks, snacks, smoking habits I can get there. Been going there off and on past 14 years, great place to go”
“This is my go to market because it's close to my home and if it's snowing I can still run in there and get my necessities...in and out quickly! Happy and Bobby also have great customer service! Ps. Bobby brought my groceries into my car because my hand hurt from skiing!”
“I love this shop. The guys who work there are very nice. They have a huge selection of liquor and beers and wines and all the good drinks and snacks. Please shop here. Great place great people. Cheers.”
“I was at McDonald's eating brunch and I needed deodorant so I went to Save Mart and lo and behold my brand was on sale. Thank you Save Mart for saving me a couple of bucks”
“Kindness goes a long way. We love "our little neighborhood market". But today the men who work there made a tough situation better for my family. Unfortunately my toddler vomited in the store. The guy behind the counter rushed him to the sink to be cleaned up and helped with a speedy checkout. As a parent it is horrifying when your kid unexpectedly pukes in public. Worried about the mess, judgment, and our child. But the guys working showed kindness and we will always remember that.”
“I was so pleased and impressed with my visit to Cedar Ridge Salon today! My color touch up and cut are great--thank you Michella! This was my first hair appointment since COVID/shelter-in-place and I wasn't sure what it would be like. Cedar Ridge Salon exceeded my expectations with their attentiveness to staff and client safety. The night before my appointment I received a symptom survey by text. I was asked to wait in my car instead of the salon if I arrived early. When I got to the salon I was instructed to use hand sanitizer upon entering and my temperature was taken. I was the only client in the salon most of the time I was there and when another stylist and client arrived they were able to used the second room. I wore cloth mask in and I was given a disposable mask to wear during the coloring process so I didn't ruin my cloth mask. The chair and hair washing station were cleaned before and after I used them. The salon owner told me that she is using special A/C filters that cut down on germs. When I paid they even had a new clean pen for each client, and a separate area to leave the used/dirty pens. It is clear that lots of thought and care has gone into making sure staff and clients are at the lowest risk possible! I would highly, highly recommend patronizing this business!”
“I have tasted so many vibrant drinks. I make my own veggie juice. I am so jealous of this, I have to say it, perfect juice blend. Whoever made this Godly creation needs a raise. Period! And thank you for this. My God...”
“I love going to SPD because, if you want to buy a steak don’t buy them from Safeway, Save Mart, or any other store like them. I highly recommend SPD in GV or NC for the meat you want. And shopping there is awesome !”
