Whole Foods and Sprouts are biking distance from me so I shop there the most. Fiesta is close too and is good for some seafood (shrimp, redfish, catfish), dried peppers of every variety under the sun and votive candles. My wife hits Trader Joes once or twice a week.

it's honestly surprising to me HEB hasnt taken over the metroplex yet given how successful they are everywhere else.



They bought up all the minyards sunfresh stores that closed, but then sold all but the McKinney one and the Uptown one which will be Central Market stores.

We buy a lot of meat from Iverstine Butcher.


Their pork is the tits. Tastes like a different animal than mass produced. Not blown away by any of their other products.

We do Walmart pickup for standard things like cereal, spices, box and canned goods and usually Calandro's or Calvin's for meats, fresh vegetables etc

Costco: Bulk
Walmart: Non-bulk but trying to save a $$$
Rouses: Weekly produce

We follow a pretty tight budget. My wife makes a menu for 4-5 weeks at a time, so we try to maximize our $$$ as much as possible. Hence, why we still slum it at Walmart. Our Walmart isn't too bad through, so it's tolerable.

Albertsons for most things, then Rouses & Costco. Albertsons & Costco are very conveniently located for me.

Exactly what I was going to say.

I get most of mine from BetR. For things BetR doesn't carry, I get those from either WalMart, Albertson's, or Winn Dixie. I also go to Albertson's depending on what sales they have on meat. I'd probably go to Rouse's more if it was closer.

90% Publix

10% Costco and Whole Foods

Maybe Kroger once or twice a year, but most of the ones around me suck

Bet-R cause it is close, they are helpful, and you can check out quickly.

Walmart cause it is cheap, but it is a painful experience.

Trader joes for some things.
