When is Red Robin opening?


Hopefully soon. Lafayette is running real low on burger places.

You didnt hear..they opened up a side street to relieve the pressure from Kaliste Saloom and Ambassador.

Fresh Market >>>>>>>> Whole Foods.



I shop at Rouse's and Albertsons for groceries. I'm gonna check out Costco though because my mother in law got drunk and bought my wife and I a membership the other day.

I've never been to Costco. I don't really like buying in bulk. Am I missing anything?


You don't have to buy in bulk to love Costco. You can find really good deals on non bulk items. Electronics, etc. Gas there is cheap. And if you are a Costco member.....you can rent a car and get huge discounts. I only rent cars through Costco now...always much cheaper than any other place.

No, rotisserie chicken breast. It is in pieces, already cooked. Not quite shredded, but in chunks.

Hopefully that road that goes to Lourde's does help. I live fairly close to the Costco development but I just use Camellia and Pinhook to get places so I think that'll still be fine.

That's what I do as well. I only travel down Ambassador if I absolutely have to.

A lot cheaper than bidding on Priceline?

I have a Sam's membership but never use it.

No Fresh Market in my hood.

When I was in Texas, Central Market was awesome.

I just reserved a car through Costco last week for travel in September. Just checked priceline for same dates...Priceline's cheapest economy car rate was $70 more than Costco's cheapest rate.

You can do a lot better on Priceline by bidding.

But do you have to pay the rate upfront to get the good deal?


Costco you just lock into the rate and don't pay anything until you actually rent the car.

Champagne's is nice since they redid it but their beer prices are higher than even Rouse's.

Yeah, they charge you once the bid is accepted.
