Ray's Mini-Mart 4100 U.S. 221, Forest City, NC 28043

"The last paragraph explains why they only get four stars. They have a lot of things that most convenience stores do not have. Yes they have cola and Candy chips etc but they also have brownies chocolate oatmeal cookies cream horns etc. They of course have lottery as well as cigarettes and cigars. In the summer they often have those large just off the vine tomatoes from local farmers. You know the kind I'm talking about,the kind where you make a tomato sandwich and you bite into it and the juice squirts all over your mouth and outside your mouth and runs down your chin. Truckers are welcome as they have a large parking place for them. It's never really crowded, at the most you'll see maybe four or five people in line yet they do have steady amount of customers. If you are traveling south on highway 221 it is a convenient turn just off the highway. If you need a loaf of bread, box of crackers milk etc they have it. They also have old VHS original videos as well as DVDs sometimes.. NOTE THEY DO NOT HAVE GAS. Overall it's a decent place and the staff are great but there are at times the select rednecks that sit in the back of the store and make rude comments about people. #Business #lottery #cigarettes #cigars #candy #cola #vegetables #trucking #trucker #truckers"

"Small convenience store with friendly people to help you out! About the only store on that stretch of hwy."

"Love Ray's Store he is a Aweome Sweet Person..."

"Ray is awesome. My only complaint is I think it needs updating and a good cleaning. It's just a little country store that offers tge basics. It reminds me of my childhood. It's nice to see the "regulars" sitting in the back shootin the bull."

"Rays is awesome but the location on this map is wrong!!!"
