I miss Piggly Wiggly (where do you shop for groceries?)

Ahhh Wegmans. The greatest supermarket in all the land, with incredible selections, decent prices and everything a person could want. It's what I miss most about being in the Northeast. Instead, I'm stuck at places like Wal-mart and Schnucks. Maybe one day Wegmans will take over the world, not just New York.

 

Actually, I just rag on you because; grocery shopping is a perk.
But when I go back to Michigan next month, you bet I'm taking a cooler for shopping...

 

There's a locally-owned place where I live which is the greatest grocery store ever. Has everything the chains have, plus lots of extras, good produce, great meats and cheeses, etc. It's a tad pricier than the chains, but still well worth it.

 

Fair enough. I'll stop crying myself to sleep over your hurtful comments.

 

I shop at Eat My Ass, that's where I shop.

 

Albertsons. It's on the corner, and I can walk.

After work though, it's all Winco all the time.

 

A friend who lived in Denver shopped at King Soopers.

For some reason, it was colloquially referred to as Queen Soopers.

 

They got great berries.

 

Albertson's, mainly. It's the closest big store to where I live. My city is kind of strange, however. Wal-Mart is the big dog, but there's a co-op of indie grocery stores that has a big chunk of the market -- some of the indie stores are a little more upscale, some are like the places where your mom shopped in the 60s and the 70s. Whole Foods is doing well over here, and a Fresh Market is set to open in the fall. I wish we would get a Trader Joe's....I've read about that place and sounds really great.

 

Trader Joes is great... but two buck chuck is overrated.

 

Going to a place called Russ' tommorrow. Only other options are HyVee and Wal-Mart. I guess there is a ShopKo here, too.

 

I and the gf go to Publix mostly, but we do stop in at Wild Oats sometimes in case we want some special meal stuff, or cheese. They have a much wider variety there.
