You know what we’re tired of? Having to get out of the car and actually go inside the grocery store. If there’s anything we’d like to avoid it’s the prying eyes of our neighbors watching all the things we’re buying and not buying. Okay, okay, that’s not entirely true. We’re in Maine, which means we obviously love running into our neighbors and wasting an entire afternoon by gossiping. But, if you’re looking for another way to do things check out this grocery store that runs things just a bit differently.

You might recognize the location of Auto-Drip. It once housed two other small convenience-type stores. But what exists here now is truly one-in-a-million!
