Tamara’s Local Recommendations
Grocery, Beer/Wine & Convenience Stores
There is a convenience store with ATM in the apartment complex (white building beside my apartment), Valu-Mart (full grocery store) and a 7-11 nearby.
The Valu-Mart (see map) is a great spot and has plenty of basics without being overwhelming or over-priced.
