Come up with a brief list of items and have people all over the city buy them and see how things compare. They'd need to publish where they bought stuff and, to be fair, you need to flag anything that happened to be on sale.Gilahihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05331323175802868796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29952376.post-83191019254043765992008-06-12T14:57:00.000+01:002008-06-12T14:57:00.000+01:00J.M.: I am!

Wegmans is the greatest grocery store ever! The prices are decent (better than Giant; I can't compare them to Shoppers since the one I used to go to was dirty and apparently, I unconsciously knew that a random poking could take place there at any time) and the selection and prepared foods are terrific. Just don't go there on opening day.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08811858639259602946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29952376.post-42572064345374964012008-06-09T22:55:00.000+01:002008-06-09T22:55:00.000+01:00Green: OMG!

(What can I say, we lead a rich life.) We can not get over the marketing campaign for their "colossal donuts with over 32 varieties." "Over 32"?? Not "Over 30" but "Over 32".
