About Lucky Stop Food Mart

Lucky Stop Food Mart is a neighborhood convenience and grocery store located in Wilmington, North Carolina, operated by permittee/owner Sadek Ali under the trade name “Lucky Stop Food Mart.” Public alcohol licensing records in North Carolina list Ali, Sadek as the manager with the trade name Lucky Stop Food Mart at 6402 B Market Street, indicating this is a locally owned retail food mart rather than a national chain. The store typically offers packaged foods, beverages, beer and wine, tobacco products, lottery tickets, and general convenience items for nearby residents and passersby.

A charge with a descriptor such as “SADEK ALI DBA LUCKY” or similar variations will usually come from an in‑person purchase at this store, such as fuel-adjacent convenience items, snacks, tobacco, beverages, or lottery, and may also reflect alcohol purchases given its off‑premises malt beverage and wine permits listed with the North Carolina ABC Commission. Smaller merchants sometimes appear on bank statements under the owner’s legal name followed by “DBA” (doing business as) and a shortened version of the store name, so seeing “Sadek Ali” in the descriptor is consistent with this type of local business billing.

If you’re unsure about this charge, first think back to any recent in‑person convenience store or small grocery purchases you made in the Wilmington, NC area, especially along Market Street. Check any paper receipts or card-notification entries on the date of the transaction and compare the amount and time. To resolve questions, you can call or visit the store directly during business hours and ask for a manager, providing the date, amount, and last four digits of your card so they can look up the sale in their point‑of‑sale system. If you still do not recognize the transaction after speaking with the merchant, contact your card issuer to dispute the charge or request a card replacement in case of possible card compromise.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my statement show “SADEK ALI DBA LUCKY” instead of just the store name?

For many small, independent businesses, the card descriptor uses the owner’s legal name plus “DBA” (doing business as) followed by a shortened trade name. In this case, “Sadek Ali” is the registered owner, and “Lucky” refers to Lucky Stop Food Mart, the convenience store he operates in Wilmington, NC.

What types of purchases typically result in a charge from Lucky Stop Food Mart?

Most charges from Lucky Stop Food Mart come from in‑person purchases of convenience items such as snacks, soft drinks, beer or wine, tobacco products, lottery tickets, and other everyday essentials. The amount on your statement should match your in‑store receipt for those items.

Does Lucky Stop Food Mart run subscriptions or recurring charges?

No, Lucky Stop Food Mart operates as a local convenience and grocery store and generally does not offer subscription or recurring billing. If you see repeated charges, they are usually separate in‑person visits on different days rather than an automatic subscription.

Could I see a small pending or duplicate charge from Lucky Stop Food Mart?

It’s possible to see a temporary pending amount if your bank places an authorization hold when your card is first run, especially if there was a partial reversal or the transaction had to be re‑attempted. These temporary holds should drop off automatically within a few business days, leaving only the final sale amount posted.

How can I get a receipt or verify a specific charge from Lucky Stop Food Mart?

To verify a charge, contact or visit Lucky Stop Food Mart and provide the date and exact amount of the transaction, along with the last four digits of your card. Staff can search their point‑of‑sale records to confirm what was purchased and, in many cases, reprint or show you a copy of the receipt.

How do I request a refund for a mistaken or incorrect charge from Lucky Stop Food Mart?

If you believe you were overcharged or billed in error, speak directly with the store manager at Lucky Stop Food Mart as soon as possible and bring your bank statement and any receipt you have. If the store agrees there was an error, they can process a refund back to your card. If you cannot resolve it with the store, contact your card issuer to dispute the charge.

What should I do if I don’t recognize a Lucky Stop Food Mart charge at all?

First, check whether you or another authorized cardholder recently visited a convenience store in the Wilmington, NC area around the date shown. If no one recognizes the transaction, call the store to see if they can identify it. If it still appears fraudulent, notify your card issuer immediately to dispute the charge and consider cancelling and reissuing your card.

Does Lucky Stop Food Mart have an online ordering or delivery site that might bill my card?

Lucky Stop Food Mart is primarily a local, in‑person convenience and grocery store and is not widely listed as offering its own online ordering platform. Most legitimate charges should correspond to physical visits; if a charge claims to be from Lucky but is linked to an online purchase you don’t recognize, contact your bank for further investigation.
