Wow,your prices are so incredibly low it’s like we live in different countries. I can’t imagine getting three pounds of apples for a dollar or two heads of lettuce for a dollar. I’m not even sure I could find 10 lbs. of potatoes for $ 1.99. Ours are 10@ $3.99 at best, as I know and lettuce is 1.99 a small head.

Those are the ad items, but it is a locally owned 1 store operation. Father and son run it, with lots of employees. They have the only grocery store in the county, but are competitive with the big boys in Abilene (60 miles away).

Many food items vary a lot because of transportation costs (particulary on produce), also cost of doing business. Texas is business friendly.

low prices-

I am very very concerned about the long term effect of the passage of S.510/HR2749/HR2751 FDA Food Takeover (Signed into law by Obozo). This is going to be the game changer. A lot of people are going to be livid when they see what this does to U.S. food costs.

It will be tar and feather time when it sinks in.
