I know Addie has posted about her love for visits to Wally World. Well, guess what, ours is undergoing an renovation. Honestly, it took me a trip through the entire grocery section and ten minutes to find the bread. For me, I have WW, Sav-A-Lot and Food Lion (which is very expensive and hard to get in and out of, especially with summer traffic). Choices are limited. Ugh.bang head here

Geesh. I've stopped at the mini marts that go hand in hand with some of our local gas stations (Hess)

I know what you mean about summer traffic. I live down the shore so we get all the Benny's (tourists) invading us starting on Thursday. If I have to go to the store I go either really early or really late.

They keep moving stuff around in the local WW and I get so frustrated. They make room for seasonal by putting the regular stuff all over the place, and not all together in one place. And don't even get me started on the discontinuing of fabrics and crafts. When I was manager of a locally owned arts and crafts store in 1988=89 they were the cause of our losing business because they opened up a few miles away. Now you can't find craft stuff OR fabric there....I have to drive about 30 miles here in Atlanta area to a Js or Ms or a HL. We have a Hancocks fabrics thankfully, so my quilting habit can continue.

They did the same thing to our Wal-Mart Super Center. The renovation is finally done though. The grand opening was this past Wednesday. I did not go. I will be there tomorrow evening for my weekly grocry shopping. Oh joy!
