Community Markets

Clean store, well stocked with a decent variety. Employees are very friendly. I get my groceries here every time I go camping down the street.

We don't come to Community Markets very often. However, yesterday's experience inspires me to keep coming back. My son is 29, autistic, and wherever we go...we probably won't go unnoticed.

We were approaching the checkout, when my son noticed a fresh copy of a magazine featuring his favorite, Elton John:

"But Mom! But Mom! Elton John, Elton John....Rocket Maaaaan!" Do you know the words to Rocket Man?

"And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no, no, no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man, burning out his fuse up here alone."

We were obviously not leaving the store without him. I plunked down our items on the conveyor, mentally adding Elton to our bill. I could not say no.

"He is seriously one of my favorite customers. I'm not even kidding," the cashier said of my son.

Hearing her words, my son exclaimed, "Oh, HI Tommie! Oh, HI Tommie!" He had caught a glimpse of her nametag. She rung us up, bagged the magazine, and placed it right into his ready hands.

For those of you who don't understand what it feels like to be very different, this is how you do community. My son's face beamed. He was seen. He was heard. He lit up like a Christmas tree.

We could use more days like this. More Tommies.

Kudos to this grocery for putting the "community" in Community Markets. Thank you for making 2 people feel very happy, and accepted, and not so alone in this world.

I shop Community Market E Sandusky Ave frequently. I feel they have the BEST, Freshest, and most price value meat in our area. I greatly appreciate their Tuesday is SENIOR CITIZEN DAY with 5% Savings on total purchase, Thursday PRODUCE SPECIAL VALUE DAY and of course the friendly, courteous and helpful employees.

High-priced but it is usually never extremely busy very good meat department and Deli Fried Chicken is the bomb the pot pies are fantastic as well

They have the best hot lunches in the deli. Lasagna, Alfredo, fried chicken, etc.

Easy to find what you want. Great employee's.
