Wegmans

So I finally tried Wegmans today...and I wasn't impressed. The produce and meat selections are terrific otherwise I think the store is organized in a very strange way. Anyone feel the same?

Yes, I really don't like it. I like to go there sometimes and get a sub from their Cafe section, but I don't like shopping there....and I'm only like 2 miles away!

I like Wegman's but rarely get there and I did remember thinking that the layout was kind of strange. I like their cheese selection too since they usually have more variety than my local Giant. I still wish they had one on the East Shore.

Honestly I never figured out why everyone makes such a big deal out if, but I spend 4 years of college with a choice between Wegmans and Tops (like NY's version of Giant) in Rochester, NY - when you've been in scary old Wegmans afraid you were going to get shot and not their new stores it loses the appeal.

DH on the other hand keeps complaining about every other grocery store we have around here and can't wait for the one in Frederick to open as he says that all of the other ones around here have weird layouts and a lack of section. DH grew up in Western NY, so he grew up with Wegmans and I think he is biased.

Well glad its not just me. I think I'll just stick to the Giant in Camp Hill.

Heh, I love Wegmans.

I agree the layout is odd. The entire center section of the store is like no-man's land with pre-packaged organics and random furniture/ cooking supplies. I don't care for some of their bakery items - bagels, donuts (not my thing, but for DH), and their bread seems overpriced.

I like that they have a wide selection of things in their store brand: flavors of juices, whole wheat pastas, the soups in the cafe (but NOT the store brand canned soup, ick). I also like some of the individually packaged club pack meats (easy for freezing), and the produce and cheeses.

I am a loyal Wegmans shopper. A lot of people around here say how expensive it is but DH and I spend less when we go there. I think its because we buy a lot of their store brand products. I've found that most of their store brand items are great quality, and a great deal.

I agree that the layout is weird, but I still miss Wegmans. We used to go there a lot in college and now we don't have the best grocery stores in MD, so Wegmans would be a great improvement.

the best thing about wegmans is the beer Stick out tongue

DH was so impressed with their beer selection, he talked about it all weekend.

Because of the distance I don't shop at Wegman's as often as I'd like but I do enjoy the store. They carry many things we would buy regularly but are not carried in our local Giant.

I love Wegmans but I do not do our every day shopping there. I go there mainly for my "foodie" foods like specialty meats, produce, and cheeses. I usually get the everyday things like cat food and pasta at Giant and regular produce at the farmer's market (or our garden). The downside is that when I go there I end up spending $50 on one basket of groceries.

The closest Wegmans to me is at least a 45 min. drive, but we enjoy shopping there so we make the trip when we do our "big" shopping trip every 4-6 weeks. I do agree that the layout is odd and it does take a bit of getting used to and w/o fail we have to ask where something is every time we're there. But we go and just leisurely shop and could honestly spend hours there. LOVE their store brand stuff too - great quality.
