Groceries will be 100% cheaper because no one will pay for them.


Yup, and no tax on the 5 finger discount either.

Usually dims choose to take the long game. This is notable. It means the agenda is hot and burning, or they don't expect him to be around long enough to play long.
Possibly the latter being reason for the former.

Same here, but looking back it seems the stories never mentioned price (except for a few which said things like "low-price").

This is going to be a massive drain on city resources, and this will be on top of the fact that this is at a time where he's already had to have a lifeline from Albany.

Let’s assume it’s true, that the groceries are 30% less. In that case the people will line up to get the groceries, and there will have to be limits on how much you can buy. Even other grocery store owners will be buying to get the markup in their stores.

How long will the lines be? Exactly as long until the wait time, multiplied times the value the shoppers place on their time, equals the discount. This is why the government can never really make the groceries cheaper by simply lowering the prices.

Critics have said the city-run stores will hurt small, privately-run, neighborhood bodegas. The mayor disagrees, saying that the city's groceries won't sell items like cigarettes, alcohol and lottery tickets.


So just call it the EBT store and make it the only place that accepts EBT cards. Then you can advertise everything is free.

It always appears to go well until they run out of other people's money.

Hasn't he already made this announcement?

Having a press conference to announce what you've already had a press conference to announce is hilarious.

Dude is doing one a day at this point and running back old takes because he's addicted to the press and his followers are mindless idiots

His promises are evaporating like farts outside.

Free transportation buses.....nope
Free groceries....nope, some days 30%off

And that's all before it even opens. Just wait. Anyone can see the direction this will go.

Trump should make it so SNAP can't be used at state or city-owned grocery stores and let the fun ensue.

Well when you get an 8B bailout from the taxpayers of NY not living in NYC, you can run in the red.

The DSC rep interviewed by Fox last week said the quiet part out out "If a mom and pop grocery is going to go out of business bc of one city owned grocery store, then maybe they shouldn't have been in business"


Cannot wait to watch the impending trainwreck in NYC. You get what you vote for.

The bodega owners will just buy at the government grocery store for 30% off and sell it for 10% off.
