Where do you shop? I'be been living near a Wal-Mart Neighborhood Center for 5 years and never stepped inside till Sat. Best Freaking Super Market ever. that's all
HEB, Hancock Center, Austin TX HEB, Far West, Austin TX HEB, Barker-Cypress @290, Cypress TX See a trend?
IGA Minimax on Woodrow in Crestview (Austin) HEB #269 on Braker and 183 (Austin) Whole Foods 360 and 183 (Austin) Spec's #62 360 and Loop 1 (Austin)
I usually alternate between HEB and Super Target. Occasionally Super Wal-Mart if it's after 10 p.m. and I feel up to dealing with the chaos. I'm in San Antonio so doubt any of y'all use the same ones... know there aren't that many people from here... but I used to shop at some of the ones you mentioned when living in Houston and Austin.
Neighborhood Wal-Mart Even though it's on the border of a low income neighborhood, it's not trashy on the inside at all. The usual insane Wal-Mart lines have not been an issue for me yet, which is the biggest plus aside from the prices.
I would say that it depends on what I'm buying. If I want high quality ingredients I'll go to Central Market
ditto. Such a nice store and the employees are always so pleasant. I also love HEB Central Market. In Katy, I go to Katy Mills Wal-Mart and the new HEB Plus.
