So came with my friends for a day trip to St Charles. There where lots of mentions on social media for rocket fizz so naturally we had to go check it out. First off when you walk in you realize how huge this store is and yes there is something for everyone and they have a huge variety. Floor to ceiling just about. As I navigate this awesome place I notice the over a 100 or more different types of soda here WOW. every taste and kind you can imagine. We are greeted by a friendly outgoing guy with great energy and a awsome personality. After a few words it's his father in-laws store. He took over after he got sick but being a small family store with great energy and down to earth people. We are more then happy to spend our money here with pleasure. We feel valued and appreciated.and that means alot to us. As I stroll through I'm picking up this candy and that candy oh and gotta get this one reminds me of my childhood. Oh gotta get this one for my daughter etc by the time I was done I spent 45 dollars and my friend spent 35 and we didn't care cause we felt appreciated!!!!
