Jacksons Food Stores

"I'm not sure what it is but lately I have been met with the rudest employees. I am in this particular store a lot, as I live right around the corner. Almost on a daily basis. And most of the time I'm greeted with nothing but nice, helpful employees. But twice now in the matter of a couple of weeks, I have been met with two of the rudest people. One girl in particular, her name is Emmalee, was so rude she actually snatched my money right out of my hand when I went to pay her. And then wanted to argue with me about what I was purchasing. Excuse me? If you're going to be rude to people you don't need to be in customer service. Maybe you need to be working a night job stocking shelves where you don't have contact with a lot of people. If you're having a bad day maybe you need to go home."

"Inside, the people are always nice and things are kept up and clean. My complaint is having a drive-thru that you're not able to manage most of the time. Super long waiting times, and now twice I have just given up, stopped waiting to place my order, and left the drive-thru. The first time, I actually drove around to the front and went in to make my purchases. Yesterday, after about 10 minutes of waiting (after being told that they would be with me momentarily), I drove away and went to a competitor a couple of miles down the road. There won't be a third time. If you can't handle the customers in your drive-thru line, then close it permanently!"

"I’ve been a huge fan of Jacksons since I moved to my neighborhood in 1994. My neighborhood Jacksons is at 791 N. Garden St. in Boise. I go there mostly for bags of ice and top-tier gas, but I like knowing that I can get just about anything else I need there too. It is like an Idaho version of a bodega. The employees are always very nice and friendly, too. Jacksons was started by a family from Homedale, Idaho. In 1975, they opened a gas station in Caldwell. Today, they have more than 300 locations spread across 7 Western states.  The key to a well-run business starts with happy and loyal employees. If you frequent Jacksons, you’ll notice there isn’t a lot of turnover, and the employees seem happy. In addition to providing a fair wage and a family-like work environment, they offer a generous benefit package that includes: affordable health/dental/vision plans, paid time off and holiday pay, fuel and merch discounts, performance bonuses, a 401(k) Retirement plan with a company match, profit sharing, and tuition reimbursement of up to $5000 per year. I’d consider working here just for the 401(k) and tuition reimbursement alone. Only 22% of American employers provide 401(k) retirement plans with a company match. Jacksons also raises millions of dollars for local charities. I don’t know when Jackson’s got rebranded as Jacksons Food Store, but the name is fitting.  Thebuyer for Jackson’s really knows what they’re doing! These are some of the interesting food products I found during my recent visit to the Jacksons at 750 N. Ten Mile Rd in Meridian.  I went there after purchasing tacos at Street Tacos La Cruz, to buy a drink, so I could eat at their table outside. But just one step inside the store, and I spotted so many interesting items that after I was done eating, I went back inside and took pictures until my phone battery died. In the course of doing so, I interacted with several employees. They were all very nice and helpful. I LOVE this store! You will too! GUARANTEED!!! * This store also sells a lot of wine and has the largest beer cave of all the Jacksons locations. * This store also has a drive-through. Your drive up, tell them what you want from inside the store. They go get it and ring you up. Wild! Highly Recommended!!!"

"Lots of cold and hot drink options. Fast checkout, unlike some quick stops where you see 4 cash registers but only one person working. Nice looking car wash in the rear but I never used it. They do accept Albertson reward points."

"First time visiting and saw the growler filing station. I ordered a growler of Fast Eddie's Red Ale. Think of a cross between Dos XX amber and Killian's. A very good ale. Rhe place was very busy but the young crew was friendly and efficient. I recommend the Meridian, ID store."
