Wegmans is not an ACC corporate sponsor....Food Lion is.
Just cash the check.

Food Lion is Belgium owned. I'll cash that check, but I won't patronize.

Wegmans is garbage. Southeastern Grocers went full tard competing against themselves with Winn-Dixie and Bi-Lo (what, you expect good management to come out of Jacksonville?). Kroger is like a Camry.... average, bland, boring, and everywhere.

Do you even Ingles, brah?

Wegman's needs to put up some money then.

Food Lion is a no frills, low cost store. Even if they were in the same markets, I don't think Food Lion and Wegman's would be competing.

Cool story, bro. Ingles is okay but no Wegmans.

I agree...especially with their push South...rumor is they will add another Distribution Hub in the Richmond Area to serve from MD to NC

Everyone else, Wegmans beats everything in the south every day of the week and twice on Sunday - except for Fiesta, but that's only because I absolutely love their name, especially with the bird. It's great!

Them There Is Fighten Words!



Have you ever been into Wegmans? I have traveled up and down the east coast for work over the years and part of the Midwest. I have seen nothing that comes remotely close to the quality and atmosphere in Wegmans stores. There are a couple of Wegmans here in Rochester that look like castles, one of them multi level with underground parking. Many cities are practically begging Wegmans to expand in their areas, and offering all sorts of tax breaks. When a Wegmans has a grand opening in new cities, its usually and event that draws as many as 60,000 people in one day and has traffic snarled for miles around. Its truly remarkable what that family has built.

There is another chain in Upstate NY that tried to compete with Wegmans called Top Markets. They gave up on building the massive superstores, and now are building smaller stores that are similar to Winn Dixies or Publix.

Also I never heard of Ingles...., but I did a google them.

Ingles' - where the Spanish-speaking people shop.

Wegmans seems more like a Fresh Market, which I do like a lot. However, for regular groceries I prefer Harris Teeter.

Nah they speak Ingles there...Fiesta is where espanol is spoken.

Harris Teeter is very good...but Wegmans is something bigger than those

King Kong ain't got shlt on Albertson's.

Albertson's is so 1980s

You never heard of Wegmans, I can see. But Winn Dixies and Publix? They are all over the south.

I don't get too into grocery stores but my favorite is Giant Eagle Market District. Have any of you guys ever heard of Giant Eagle?

When I lived in Florida Publix was the big grocery store. It was okay. Nothing special. Truthfully, I've never been in a grocery store where I thought, "This is it! This is where I belong!"
