Publix Supermarket: Wide variety of everything you might need, not just groceries, but household goods and cleaning supplies, and lots of other international foods. Pharmacy is on-site.

Whole Foods: highest quality, organic and healthy food, probably the best that you will find but also the most expensive.

Fresh Market: similar to Whole Foods, but less variety.

Harris Teeter: Similar to Publix; food, household goods and cleaning supplies, etc. Pharmacy is on-site.

Costco and Sam's Club: You have to become a member to do your shopping at this wholesale store. They have everything you need (food, some clothes, electronics, etc.). You buy larger quantities, and get a cheaper price. They also have a pharmacy. Open 10:00 to 8:00 p.m.

Trader Joe’s: Good quality food, less variety than Publix and Bi-Lo, no pharmacy.
