Wish I had seen this when you posted it, Martimin. That is actually completely wrong and I am not even sure where you found out this information. There is a website called camelcamelcamel.com that you can check the price of an item at any time and has literally nothing to do with your own spending habits or anything of the sort. The price is the price. For everyone. Period. It changes, sure. But it isn’t based on the individual. It’s funny that you even think that. One wonders where you came up with that random idea.

After seeing it, I can’t imagine a high volume of vehicles entering/exiting on Edmonds. Any word on traffic revisions?

Ari Yoder, funny you say that. I was at Admiral Safeway Thursday afternoon, and while I have no problem with service dogs,  there were at least 2 people there with their animals who I couldn’t tell if they were service dogs or not because there was no special anything on the dogs. They were on leash…one was a  Great Dane, and one was a breed of Pitty, it looked like. That one was on a very short leash that the owner held tightly onto. The Dane was huge….looked friendly enough, but head was above the produce stands, and I was hoping he didn’t drool ;-). Is there some sort of official “service dog” leash, sign, something so we can know if they are or not?

I totally agree!  Or a Fred Meyer on delridge way so I don’t have to go to the run down Target.

Every time I’m in Metro Market, there are lines at the hot food counter, especially when they have fish and chips.  They are no doubt giving the people what they want.  They still have plenty of lean meats and fish if you can’t or don’t want to cook at home.  I couldn’t care less about Whole Foods, but if it siphons off some of the crowd at Safeway, that would be great.  Too often at the Jefferson Square store there are lines down the aisles waiting to check out.  I am lucky to work from home so I’ve started shopping during the day to avoid the crowds.

I doubt the commenter was referring to service dogs. I assume this because, although I am a loving dog owner and have zero problem with properly documented service dogs accompanying their owners, I resent it when people blithely bring their clearly not-service dogs into stores knowing full well it is not permitted, placing the burden on employees or other patrons to awkwardly confront them or just deal with it. In addition to valid sanitary/health concerns, some people do not like, are allergic to and/or do not want to be around dogs.

WF is going to be great.  They’ll probably offer the Amazon order-ahead-and-drive-up service.  It’s great. You just pull your car up and they load the groceries you ordered.  You don’t even need to get out!

I don’t shop at Wal mart because of their union busting techniques. I’m certainly not in an elitist position

The reason I don’t shop at Walmart is because of my understanding of the low compensation they pay their employees not because of any snobbishness.
