LOL, we drive to the Beacon Hill one to avoid the Sunridge one, which is technically closest to us. We find they seem to have more cashiers on during super busy times than Sunridge (or Heritage) ever does. I've been at the Beacon Hill one when it's been crazy busy and I don't think we've waited in line for more than about 10 minutes, ever. Waited far longer than that in line at the Sunridge one.
We buy a fair amount of meat from them, as I mentioned before, and I repackage it all when we get home - like stew meat, I cut up into smaller pieces and double bag in ziplock freezer bags, put hamburger into 1-2 pound packages, and that sort of thing. We never buy the fresh chicken breasts but pick up the frozen ones.
My mother-in-law likes to go when they're down here and she picks up vanilla (the real vanilla) and dog food because it's cheaper than up in the hinterlands where she lives. She grabs books there too because they're often so much cheaper.
