Curious to know how they're going to like rubbing elbows with the new EBT-card-carrying customers the price drops will surely bring.
Yes. I like Hello Fresh.
I’ll never shop at Whole Foods ......
I won’t but for different reasons. Jeff Bezoes owns Washington Post. No news outlet creates more fake news for liberal agenda than the Washington Post.
And there is not one anywhere near me helps too.
As does your screen name };^P>
I am always good for a boycott. I’ve got so many going I can’t name them all. My Whole Foods boycott is easy because there aren’t any in my area.
I seldom go there unless I need some supplement or other that I cannot get elsewhere and cannot wait for it to come in from an online order. My main complaint is that you are not allowed to carry concealed in their stores, but I agree with your points. I would add a few more: tattooed, pierced and ponytailed or man-bun-wearing cashiers and electric car recharge stations.
The DOJ and antitrust laws are useless
The chicken at Sprouts is so good its like what we got as kids.
I don’t like having to rub elbows with people who go to Whole Foods so they won’t have to rub elbows with people like me!
And the whole organic thing is a scam anyway, like AGW. They simply use the crap for fertilizer instead of the chemicals the crap must break down into to be used by the plants.
Some form of dumping is going on here. Amazon can sell food at a loss for a time in order to wipe out others by propping it up from other operations.. Then prices jack up. Much as I hate WF I can’t believe the profit margin was so high that it could cut prices 40+% and not be hemmoraging money.
So you define what is good for you by those that find it useful for them?
Seems an odd way to decide what’s worthy of your time or not.
I go to a local pizza shop that makes great pie, I don’t avoid the place because other who I don’t agree with enjoy their pizza as well..
But to each their own.
Personally never been to a Whole Foods because, their prices are insane and their isn’t one near me. I do go to Trader Joe’s near my work, to buy snacks for my office... honestly thhe quality of their fruits, vegetables and nuts are better than any of the national brands and the price is uslly on par or lower for these items than I find in most other super markets. Other things are grotesquely too expensive for my taste... particularly their meats
One could go crazy looking for logical behavior in liberals.
“Also, I believe that Amazon will be using the Whole Foods infrastructure and distribution centers to get into the meal kit delivery business.”
Watching late night tv last night I saw a commercial for Omaha Steaks.
They have gotten into the crock pot meal game.
They send a food kit with the meat, vegetables, spices and broths necessary for a crock pot meal.
I have seen OS commercials before but this was a new one to me.
If 25% of Walmart is going to Whole Foods, are they going to have dress code? Or new pics of Whole Foods Shoppers?
well of course people will check out or recheck out whole foods if prices have lowered.
I didn’t realize whole foods cut some prices. I may stop by one more time to see. I had boycotted whole foods due to their severely overpricing items/brands you could find elsewhere cheaper.
What people don't realize is that there are thousands of regular Americans who make a great living selling products on Amazon either through their FBA program or seller fulfilled. It is the equivalent of a mom and pop shop in many cases. There are people making millions off Amazon, there are people makung 6 figures, there are stay at home moms making a few extra hundred dollars a month for extra cash. Read the story about Death Wish Coffee. The guys a millionaire now. He was running a failing coffee shop and had, like, $300 in the bank.
Heck, occasionally I sell stuff on there.
No big shocker.
Years ago, when a new grocery store would open, it would have ridiculously low prices for a while to attract customers. Such stores were usually packed with customers. Then, after the newness and sales ended, the customer traffic would decrease.
They were usually called something like: Grand Opening Sale.
I raised our own meat chix for a number of years. They were slaughtered and packed into cartons with bags of Ice for the trip home. We packaged them at home. They were all rinsed in our well water and dried prior to packaging.
I wouldn’t eat a chicken that had not been rinsed.
