We regret the closing of the Superfresh store on College Avenue, but it would be a great location for a Harris Teeter supermarket, which would give the Giant a real battle to remain Salisbury’s food emporium of choice for the local elite. Hey, I can dream, can’t I?
PS – if you don’t know about Harris Teeter, visit one of their 3 stores in Sussex County, Delaware – Millsboro, Selbyville and Bethany.
I don't know Harris Teeter but I do know Publix and they, also, would give Giant alot of competition.
ReplyDeleteHow about a Wholefoods or Trader Joe's?
ReplyDeleteDo they have the 1/2 price specials?
ReplyDeleteI vote for a Whole Foods, Trader Joe's or Harris Tetter...they all carry healthy food options.
ReplyDeleteOhhhh Trader Joe's would be wonderful!
ReplyDeleteHarris Teeter are expensive just like Giant!!!...I would rather shop at Food Lion or WalMart where their prices are much cheaper. Thank Goodness for coupons.That is the only time I step into Giant or HT. But we something instead of an empty shell and lost jobs. I dont know much about Safeway's prices..Maybe we need a safeway in Salisbury.
ReplyDeleteSuper Fresh is more expensive than some stores. However, they have outstanding bargain prices on sale items, and they will double (sometimes triple)coupons on top of that. They seem to have $1.00 items quite often too. I save tons of money there, and I only go in to buy sale items. I wish they would stay, I am going to miss them!!
ReplyDeleteFor healthy foods try the Railway Market in Easton.
ReplyDeleteI would love to see a Harris Teeter or Publix. I have lived in areas where I've had the opportunity to shop at both. As for Trader Joes, don't hold your breath, my wife visited the headquarters in Monrovia, CA (Mother-in-law lives there)last summer and they know about our area, but we are too far off the beaten path for supply
ReplyDeleteHarris Teeter
ReplyDeleteTrader Joe's
Wegamans is good too!
Maybe the extreme couponers put them under? It has to have had some effect.
ReplyDeleteTrader Joes would be fantastic!!!! Healthy food options, but affordable prices.
ReplyDeleteI just don't know if Harris Teeter would be successful because it is a high-end store....lots of good stuff, but pricey. A Publix store would be wonderful! They run very good sales, and their quality is very good.
ReplyDeleteWe need a new grocery store for the local "elite"? Leave us lowly heathens to go to food lion.
ReplyDeleteI have been to the Harris Teeter in Selbyville and I didn't like it. Things were way over priced.
ReplyDeleteI stopped going to Superfresh years ago when the staff was so nasty and most of the time the things they had advertised they either didn't have in stock or when you got there you had to spend so much before you could get the sale price.
walmart isn't always the cheaper option. they take advantage of shoppers assuming they have the best deals and sneak in higher price instead. I never buy milk there, it's $1.00 MORE per gallon than I pay at a drug store or convenience store. seriously folks, check it out.
ReplyDeleteI am so disappointed today. First they took away Safeway and now Super Fresh. What do they think we are? I can depend on GOOD meat and fish at Super Fresh!!!!! NO NO NO NO NO don't do this to us!!!! Barb P.S. I forgot they also have the best deli trays and we get all of our cakes from them for birthdays.
ReplyDeleteIt would be awesome to have a Trader Joes here on the Delmarva Peninsula.
ReplyDeleteHopefully Salisbury will get an Aldi's one day. It's a non-name brand store, but it's top quality. Everything is made or grown in the USA. I go there for the basics and save money everytime. Some are turned off by not shopping name brands, until they try the products. Would do very well near the college.
ReplyDeleteI never want to hear how high food is at Super Fresh, for those who want Wholefoods, and Harris Teeter. Most of us could not afford them.
ReplyDeleteI would like to see Wegmans come into the area. I have shopped in their stores in upstate NY and they are great for the gormet or the batchlor.
ReplyDeleteThey have it all!!!

ReplyDeleteWhole foods suck and they have snotty employees. We are not missing anything by not having them around here. Except high priced 'organic' food they say is healthier for you but has recently been disproven.
Wonder how them folks feel about being ripped off?
Giant use to be the cat's meow and had everything! Since that new company bought them they eliminated alot and never can I go and get what I need. However, Super Fresh is now how Giant use to be. Hope Super Fresh sticks around cause I HATE Giant.
ReplyDelete1036-Yeah, whole foods are pretty expensive. But, their bakery is top notch, their deli is better than any major supermarket, plus you avoid the landwhales you see at wal-mart. Many guys like myself, go chick-shoppin at Whole Foods. It'd work by the college, remember those shoppers are the same fools who's parents send them from out of state for SU(13K per semester for non-residents).
ReplyDeleteland whales? chick shopping? classy

ReplyDeleteGuess you and others didn't see the report that said those places didn't sell food any healthier than any other non-organic store. But they did charge you a lot more for the illusion.
