One of my co-workers came in on Friday and said he had heard that HiNabor's lease expired in Drusilla and LeBlanc's was moving in. Has anyone else heard or read something on this?

Rouses is not buying or merging with Payless---Fact. Payless is taking over the Hi Nabor in Drusilla when the lease expires----Fact.

Should this mean they will do some renovations or at least a face lift?

Thanks.

Something needs to happen. I live near hi nabor and it is completely awful. Terrible selection of everything and bad produce/meat.

I do as well and I was hoping for something other than a piggly wiggly or windixie. Really just want fresh fruits and veggies.

If they do, I will lose my time machine. FACT!

When is this going to happen, I need to plan some more time travel before the Payless transition happens. FACT!

HiNabor will be out within the next 60 days. LeBlancs > Rouses. By far best independent in this area.

I hear ya...I actually try and patronize the Hi Nabor on Jones Creek as much as possible, but someone needs to get that place out of 1985. I think Hi Nabor is stuck in time.

My roommate is close to the owner (Randy Leblanc) and he confirmed that they have bought that spot on Drusilla where Hi Nabor was

I've only been to LeBlanc's a couple of times to get plate lunches from their deli, and the food was underwhelming. Sad, considering all the props that LeBlanc's gets.

I do remember the store being very neat & clean...LeBlanc's is more like a Ralph's than a Calandro's though, right?

I used to live by that Hi Nabor, and it was so gross in there. Glad something is being done about it.
