Ironically, Gelsons may be the big winner from a big Wal-Mart move. Upper income people will still want to have a decent place to shop, and will pay a premium to do so.

Gelsons will sure make sure you pay high 7-11 type prices for groceries, I agree.

not familiar with that chain, we have Wegman's on the east coast, and Fairway in NY. I don't mess around with food, I don't want cost cutting on food, food handling, and preparation. I don't want some transient making $8/hr touching my chickens, my steaks, my cold cuts.

The high end grocers here are unaffected by the Walmart and Kmart super centers.
