On another note, I've been to that market you went to on a Saturday afternoon. What a jungle!!! LOL. It was so packed with people, I just left because the lines moved so slowly. Don't misunderstand, it's a great store and wish there was one by my house. However, I will never go there ever again during the afternoon on a weekend. I can just imagine how full that store must have been the day before Thanksgiving!
Could not agree more!
that's why I only go during off peak hours, an hour or two before closing, at like 9 or 10 pm is perfect. the bike makes late night grocery shopping a breeze (no need to wait 20 mins for the subway / bus etc).
the lines are ridiculous on a weekend afternoon, just not worth the brain damage
