Dan the Man Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 great, another subway. That will put at least 3 subways within like 2 miles of my house. (once the main st. one reopens)I share that sentiment, Subway is lame. At least it's not a payday loan or check-cashing place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angostura Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Dang. I was hoping they'd re-open that area so you could access the Kroger from Durham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heightsite Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Indulge me on a Kroger rant....while I do wish there were better grocery shopping options CLOSE to the Heights, I continue to shop at the signature store at 11th & Shepherd because it's convenient. I'm really dissappointed that they are sending the West Gray flyer to the Heights area and most of those "specials" aren't on special at the Height's location. I asked the manager at the Heights store what I could do to recieve the Heights flyer and he said there's nothing I could do. So I thought I'd touch base with their corporate offices and they also said there was nothing I could do to have the preferred flyer delivered to my Heights home. Aside from chronically being overcharged and badly bagged groceries in bags I bring, they add insult to injury by offering a sales price on organic milk, lobster, etc. etc. that they won't honor at the Heights location! I guess the Heights isn't gentrified enough to be lurred into this location with upscale food fare!At least HEB, who also has different circulars for different stores, sends flyers for both the Katy/Wesalyn location and 18th store. Too bad HEB won't expand that pantry store...it would be well worth the drive. I hope they haven't given up on the Heights area since Walmart snagged the property they were trying to acquire. So much for keeping the customer happy...the customer who used to spend quite a bit of ching every week there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonic0boom Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Depending on how easy it is for you to get on I-10, you can get to the Bunker Hill HEB in 10 minutes... That location is sort of like a light version of Central Market.And have you tried looking at the Kroger flier via the website? You are prompted for your zip code as soon as you access it, and it will show you the flier for your local shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LTAWACS Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 I never go to Krogers. I shop almost exclusively at HEB Buffalo or HEB Central Market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutfieldDan Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Is Krogers on 20th going to expand and upgrade now that the Walgreens store moved across the street? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Is Krogers on 20th going to expand and upgrade now that the Walgreens store moved across the street?That's the $64,000 question. I think there's another thread about it on here somewhere....Ah yes:Kroger on 20th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbigtex56 Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Aside from chronically being overcharged The Montrose (a.k.a., 'Disco' or 'Ghetto") Kroger is notorious for this practice. Having shopped there for nearly 30 years, I cannot think that it's mere carelessness, as the errors are always in their favor. Be on the lookout for mismarked or unmarked merchandise; the costs can be substantial. (So why do I continue shopping there? It's faster and cheaper than taking a cab or bus to other grocers. And, it's still occasionally Cruisy Kroger. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronTiger Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 To me, Kroger has always been worse than H-E-B.Back in the 1990s, Kroger was an old "greenhouse" location, while H-E-B was a Pantry Foods. Circa 2002, Kroger renovates and H-E-B moved across the street to be a real H-E-B nearly three times the size.Unfortunately, Kroger zapped the character out of it while retaining the overall dumpiness. Brand names aren't great either, and you have to use their ____ Kroger card to buy anything that competes in price with the other stores in town.

Brickfence Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 As long as we are ranting about Kroger, am I the only one who is completely over the Cowboy Valentine Kroger campaign? I mean, yes, the Dad and the son bought flowers for their significant others, or both for the mom, or what ever. I am sick of seeing the same billboard for the last ten years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverJK Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I noticed the renovation and particularly the webbing on the roof--is something going to be built up there?i might have thought a second story starbucks like the midtown randalls but there is an existing starbucks across the streetnever stopped em before...

TABC notice in the window, and a sign at the back end of the wine section seem to confirm this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
