Wal-mart Supercenter & Sam's Club Fuel Center

I do love the employees at our Harris Teeter. And I am a sale shopper no matter where I go. Wegman's doesn't really have great sales, but their prices are pretty good. If I bought the same thing every week or if I only bought what I felt like having, maybe I would shop at Wegman's. But I shop whatever is on sale and make it work. I love the buy one get one free at Harris Teeter, but I do like the prospect of crazy low prices on lots of groceries at Walmart. Let the Broadlands Pricing Brigade reconvene!!! Where's APHIONI on all of this?!

 

HT is a rip off on day-to-day items. I stopped shopping there and now go to Target and Wegman's.
Cat food is a good example - its over $6 at HT, at Wegmans - under $5 and Target is a few cents more.
Some dairy items are the same way. Milk is a buck cheaper, pudding cups are nearly 1.25 cheaper. Walgreens sells recycled TP and paper towels cheaper, so I buy those at Walgreens.

I'm all for sales and coupons, but for stuff I buy on a regular basis, HT is outrageous. I've found Wegman's staff to be just as friendly and helpful, so I have no real reason to shop at HT anymore.

 

afgm and others--

Harris Teeter and Giant Foods grocery stores also accepts Competitor Coupons from retailers--as well as Wal-mart/Super Wal-mart stores. Lowe's and Home Depot (and other hardware/home center stores too) also will price match and accept Competitor Q(s). Just a thought.

Recently, on a sidenote, Wal-mart accepted $10/off $50 coupon from World Market. All kinds of ways to shop.

Have fun--check out the Hot Coupon World site.

Heard the wait at Wegmans yesterday was an hour and a half.....yet another reason not to shop at Wegmans...

 

But Fridays at Wegmans are always bad. Add to that the holidays coming up and a snowstorm predicted and you've got gridlock.

 

I waited for an hour and a half at Harris Teeter Friday night. They had one line open.
There were no eggs. No milk. Not a lot of bread. Hopefully everyone got what they needed.
If you know any older folks or anyone else that might need a little assistance in weather like this, remember to check on them- since probably no one else is driving out to help them in this weather!

 

:agree:

 

Steve referred to the night BEFORE the big storm.

 

I actually enjoy standing in line and waiting at Wegmans. In fact, I usually pick the longest line (though inevitably they open another lane, which takes people out of my line) because this is more time to myself while my children are in W-kids.

 

I thought I was the only freak who doesn't mind waiting in line, or even sitting in some traffic! i organize my thoughts, people watch, go over my day or what lies ahead... it's simply not that bad.

if i am in a HUGE hurry, then i go to the end of wegmans near the prepared foods with my 5 or less items.

one of my resolutions last year was to better organize my time so that i am not stressed out or rushed, and what a difference it makes to CHOOSE to do things i have time to do, not cram my day full of chores and duties making NONE of them a pleasure! far easier than losing weight or saving money... i LIKE that resolution! think i'll stick with it, it hasbn't even been that hard...

 

Foodie, does Wegmans accept competitor coupons, price match or double coupons?
Also, at Walmart - where do I go for price matching on groceries? Regular checkout lanes or Customer Service?
What is their mileage max? Are there any grocery stores they won't price match to because they are too far away?
When doubling coupons - is that automatic or do you have to ask?
Finally, any good coupon generators out there for grocery items?
Now that the holiday craziness is over I want to look into doing my homework before grocery shopping. Thanks in advance!
