Re: Love Lowes Food Grocery Store!!!

@just bee   Rio Rancho is a grocery wasteland and Albuquerque isn't much better.  I don't know why none of the big, nice stores don't "discover" us.  I love the City Market stores in Colorado.

I hear ya!  And Rio Rancho "stole" our Westside Natural Grocers!  When we moved here 26 years ago, there was a plan to build a Wild Oats next to Target at Coors and Irving.  Never happened and then Wild Oats folded.

What are the long tables for in the wine area?  

 

I saw a mgr. doing an interview there.


@ECBG 

They do wine tastings and also have chefs that do some cooking classes.  You may end up getting one. Some of the older stores have been purchased and will probably be redone in the newer version.

I'd love to have the option here in the mountains of NC, but this area as well as a northern area of SC has been covered by a private store  that gradually increased holdings, called Ingles.  We also have Publix which is very similar, as well as Fresh Market, Trader Joes, and Aldi.


@ECBG 

 

I am very familiar with Ingles. The one in Boone is pretty good. I did not need to go when I was last there.

I would love to see some thing like that Lowe's here in Miami! Publix could use the competition

After emptying the car at the beach, I went to Publix instead of Food Lion because they were 5 minutes away.  I hadn't seen Lowe's yet.

 

I was very surprised to see that their 6 pack of name brand drinks was $5.99!  They were 4 for $10.99 at F.L.

There's a great little hole in the wall produce market not far from me with all local produce and the price difference between there and Publix is astronomical! It seems to be a popular place among local chefs.
I usually try to avoid Publix but it's two minutes from my home and so convenient!

I heard today that we had a Lowes Foods here for a very short time in an out of the way area.  

This area is across from a private school and only one neighborhood really passes that area.

 

Lowes came and went.  I had not a clue!!!
