Also, they deleted Rich/FourFour's account permanently -- without warning -- for putting up copyrighted material. And he had some fun stuff on there.
A picture of Rich, because he's adorable.

Have any of you ever used the Peapod grocery delivery thingy? We might try it out. I think Jewel has raised its prices and Dominicks ends up being pricy too. I miss Cub.
― n/a (n/a), Monday, 19 February 2007 19:21 (seventeen years ago) link
2000x
I haven't tried Peapod. I don't like the concept of not being able to pick out my produce...
Also, there is a rumor that the Dominick's at Belmont/Kimball is closing down. Which, if true, will severely piss me off, though not as much as the loss of Cub.

I had that same feeling going to Dominicks after a few months at Trader Joe's. It was fun to be in a gigantic store with a whole different array of brands.
At Trader Joe's I pretty much get: nuts, carrot juice, pre-prepared chicken breasts w/ lemon, Clif bars, Go Lean. NOT MUCH OF A COOK.

I dunno. First and foremost, it's too far away. I don't have to drive to Dominick's if I don't need to, the train goes right there. Second, I don't like the co-op(heh)t-ing of local grocery/health food/etc stores' ethea into some kind of national chain. It is what it is, stop pretending. Third, and semi-related, I like supporting local business. Hence Belmont and/or Stanley's produce markets. Hell, even Dominick's is based here, even if it is in with Safeway or whatever.
And, as I mentioned before, the atmosphere/clientele all moving at 1/4 speed, gabbing on phones and blocking already narrow aisles, makes me want to kill. Grocery rage!

I love Stanleys, but I'm usually lazy and just go to a big store because I want to get all my shopping done at once.

Oh, I forgot to comment that the employees at TJ's always seem super friendly (and, um, a little high).
Today seems to be going superfast for me, even though I don't have any work to do... weird...

I've definitely been frustrated at TJ's on a Saturday afternoon when it's crowded, but that's the case at any grocery store during peak hours. And I do appreciate the friendly employees there, as Sarah said.
They do not, however, have things like cheap paper towels, Meow Mix original cat food, and light bulbs
Hmmm, I've gotten paper towels there, and I don't remember them being ridiculously expensive. And yeah, you're not going to be able to find things like light bulbs there, which is why I just go to Ace or CVS if I need something like that right away, or else save up a trip to Target if there are lots of things like that that I need. Trader Joe's is definitely not a one-stop shop, so if you like having a place where you can get all your shopping done, then yeah, TJ's is not that place.
