I prefer Meijer to Walmart myself and the competition of having both stores in town is good.

I love Meijer. I remember when it was called Meijer Thrifty Acres.

I will be shopping at the Big Rapids and Cadillac Meijers soon as I will be home next Monday for a few weeks. Menards too. Can't wait.

There’s a Meijer store on either end of town in Jackson. Its nice that I can go to the one on this end of town without going IN town.

It was called “Meijer Thrifty Acres” when I was a kid growing up near Grand Rapids in the 1960s. My parents used to go to their store on Alpine Avenue just south of the junction of M-37 and I-96 about twice a month.

I think they are still a family-owned enterprise. Good for them.
