Necessity & Passion Shopping®

These are not merely clever "taglines," they are bedrock principles that guide our company. They guide our store philosophy and are goals to which we constantly strive. At Mollie Stone's, we believe shoppers live in two distinctly different worlds. We stop at nothing to satisfy both.

When you are in this category, you're looking for convenience and selection. Despite the rare treasurers you'll find on our shelves, you probably shop here because we're near where you live. You know what you want and you'd prefer to buy it all in one trip. Whether it's Cheerios, Oreos, or Spaghetti-O's (hey, they'd stop making them if no one ever ate them), you'll find them all on our shelves. Although we're not typical, the fact is we're still a big grocery store. Gum. Toothpicks. Soda. Batteries. Jell-O. Pens. TV Dinners. Groceries. As long as there's room on our shelves, we'll continue to carry these things. They are, to the necessity shopper, the bread of life.

When you're a passion shopper, you don't just grab whatever's nearby. Your standards are higher and you're willing to search out the things you really want. Like health food. If you shop at a regular supermarket, you probably make special trips to a health food store for certain items. There are some areas where you simply don't compromise, and the supermarkets don't always carry the rare jewels you seek. We may be a big store, but we're not content to merely please the masses. We know a lot of our customers look for specific, often hard-to-find things. Some people want organic foods. Others want ethnic foods. Others need certain food for medical reasons. Others simply like to experiment. Local foods. Exotic foods. Esoteric foods. Take a stroll down our aisles, and you'll find them all-and more of them than you'll find in any other supermarket.

We shop all over so you won't have to.
The fact is, no one is more passionate about shopping than we are at Mollie Stone's. Our commitment to our customers: unequaled. Our passion for local: unrivaled. Our love of shopping: unmatched! At Mollie Stone's, you'll experience a veritable treasure trove of natural and organic products from free-range chickens to organic cereal, fruit and vegetable juices-even organic baby food.

Give us your wish list.
Despite myriad opportunities to expand and grow, we've stayed small for a reason: we can give each and every customer the attention they richly-deserve. If there's something you want that we don't carry, let us know. Other people probably want it, too! As we said earlier, the Best of Both Worlds really is a goal for us. We want to carry the items you want and need.

Mollie Stone's: a big supermarket with the heart of a small store.
