Whole Foods may be pricy, but its still cheaper than your local health food store, which is why they started up in the first place.
“Whole Foods may be pricy, but its still cheaper than your local health food store”
Not where I live. we have two regional “health food” chain stores in my little berg: Sprouts and Natural Grocers. Both are cheaper than Whole Foods, and in some cases both are cheaper than the big chains like Safeway on some products. Not to mention, both Safeway and King Soopers/Kroger now carry an extensive line of organic foods that are very reasonably priced.
It’s that type of competition that’s killing Whole Foods right now. Whole Foods is not doing well right now financially because of extensive competition in organic food retailing.
