Marc’s Stores

I loved this freakin’ store! My fiancé grew up in Aurora so we were in town from Los Angeles for a week to celebrate her birthday with her family. Her mom kept saying she had to go pickup a table from «Marc’s», to which I thought she was casually name dropping a friend. She asked if I could go help her get it, so we hopped in the car and went. When we arrived, I then realized it was a store. I asked her what this store was about and she said that «it’s a little of this and that. It’s kind of a mishmash store.» …She was right.
We went in and honestly it was kind of plain on the inside. But as we walked through, I was looking around with one «wow» after another. The prices at this place were awesome. I wanted to buy everything, but couldn’t justify packing it all up and sending it back home.
I found it funny that their stores were kind of difficult to navigate. They seemed to mix groceries in with home items. In one aisle you’d be in pharmaceuticals, sports equipment, then produce, then pharmaceuticals again. The order was a bit chaotic. Maybe if I relied on shopping at Marc’s, I’d be annoyed. But I was actually pretty dazzled by it.
The staff was friendly and helpful. Everyone that assisted went (for what I’m used to) above and beyond when we needed help. Remember, I don’t live in Aurora. I’m a Seattle boy who’s lived in Los Angeles for the last 11 years. I’m used to unresponsive selfish people. You Ohioans are very friendly and I appreciated it enormously!
Yes they only accept cash, checks, or Discover cards. The lack of any other payment method is unfortunate, but at least they have an ATM on site so you’re not without a way of paying.
Thanks to the staff at Marc’s for making my shopping experience fun. I look forward to visiting you all again on my next visit!

I’ve banned this store from my life. The teenage cashiers are always in a bad mood. Have never encountered a respectful one. Needs proper management. Doesn’t accept credit cards! Go to Heinen’s up the street. A bit more expensive, but you get what you pay for.

Cleaner than some Marc’s stores I’ve been to, but also less well-​organized than some that I’ve been to. It’s fairly quiet, which is always nice. The staff were not particularly helpful, but nice enough.
If you are shopping here and you aren’t familiar with Marc’s stores, just be aware that the only credit card they accept is Discover. They always accept cash.
