Clinton Grocery Store Owner Talks Challenges of Shutdowns

If you shopped at the Clinton Save A Lot at any point during the shutdowns, you were likely able to find anything you needed.

 

Store owner Dave Jackson on the WHOW morning Show Thursday indicates there were certain items they found themselves challenged to keep in stock consistently like bread and a few other things but for the most part, they were able to keep their shelves stocked for almost the entirety of the coronavirus pandemic shutdowns.

 

 

About a week ahead of when the country was turned upside down, Jackson had a hunch something was about to happen and began getting as much inventory on everything as he could. He had double the supplies coming in and stored it all at his old store off the Clinton Square.

 

 

According to Jackson, the mask-wearing policy at the story has evolved. While patrons are encouraged to wear a mask, he believes he has found a happy medium for him and his staff after Jackson himself experienced some complications from the mask-wearing.


 

 

Jackson praised his employees for stepping up amid the craziness and being there for the store and the community. 

 

Jackson will be in his new location on Washington Street for four years in November.
