| a few of my Wegmans purchases |
I am a gal of favorite places to shop...
Examples include Pine Valley Bulk Foods, Choma Dairy Co-Op, Food Lover's (a South African chain), Dillsburg Farmers' Market, and now...
I hear that Wegmans originated in New York. It's a unique grocery store, because it includes a massive take-away section and bakery... in addition to everything a "normal" grocery store would have PLUS everything an organic grocery store would have!
On top of the impressive selection, the store's marketing is fresh and full of style.
The first time I stepped into Wegmans I couldn't believe such an establishment existed. After wandering the aisles for an hour and getting a sense of what the store might house,
I put "visit Wegmans in detail" on my to-do-one-day list.
A couple weeks ago my roomies were out and rain clouds moved in for the entire day. So, I figured it was a perfect time to roll up and down and up and down the aisles of the massive Wegmans store.

| i love.love.love choose-your-own bulk fruit/nut bins :) this was a tasty trail mix that highlighted banana chips and dried strawberries |
I made all sorts of wonderful discoveries (such as the ENTIRE aisle of teas!), carefully selected some items for purchase (including three boxes of tea), and eventually exited the store some 2 hours later.
It was an excellent way to spend a rainy afternoon.
Your idea of a way to spend a rainy day is much different than mine.
ReplyDeleteWow! Sounds like a fun place to shop. I'm glad you discovered that.....quite a change from the selection you had last year!
ReplyDeletewhat is a "take-away-section"
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Wegmans! There was one in Erie PA, and when we would visit Mark's parents, we would often shop there. It's definitely a shopping experience!
