Pgh has:

Shop n' Save
Foodland
Giant Eagle
Kuhn's
Whole Foods
I think we have a couple Aldis, but I find them pretty gross.
Everything else is independent.

MattUMASSD 08-11-2003 11:39 AM

Which stores does everyone prefer. My family prefers Safeway because its convenient. But Shoppers has the better prices.

Erie Area has:

Giant Eagle
Wegman's
Top's
Aldi
Wal*Mart
Quality
and I think we have a few Shop & Save
but I'm not sure where

and Clarion has:
Wal*Mart
Bilo
Aldi
and we just lost our Shop & Save

In Syracuse we have:

Price Chopper's
Wegmans
P&C
Aldi's
Nojaim's
Walmart
BJ's
Sam's
Peter's

I prefer the top three. My pick differs week to week based on who's having the best sales.

sigmagrrl 08-11-2003 11:43 AM

I like Giant for bakery/deli

I like Safeway for my United Airlines points

I like Shoppers for donuts and cheap prices

I like Sam's for kick ass desserts and appetizers when I'm having a party...

I will NOT step foot in Magruder's...IT NASTY AS ASS!

I totally forgot about Wegman's!! A sister of mine used to bring me cookies from there after a trip home!! LOL

Wegman's is great.

I'm a Whole Foods girl myself, but I will be 90 blocks away from one when I move. Perhaps I'll find a suitable organic grocery in my new neighborhood. I won't be caught dead in Wal-Mart for groceries.

Kristin AGD 08-11-2003 11:50 AM

Dallas is too big, so within five minutes of my house I have...

Tom Thumb
Kroger
Albertson's
Minyard's
SuperWalmart
SuperTarget
Whole Foods
Central Market
Sam's
CostCo

In Newport, RI (well, on Aquidneck Island) the larger markets are...

BJ's
Stop & Shop
Shaw's
The A&P is gone :(
Clements' Market
