Color of shirts? Blue
olive bar? didn't see.
taco bar? didn't see.
health food section with whey protein? No idea. You don't actually buy that stuff?
red box? Nope. One a mere 200 yards away @ wallgreen



Chinese, itallian, "delicasean", deli, salad, seafood, breadery....it was ridiculous. I felt like I was at some elite SFO grocery store. Except it's 24 hours!

breakfast?  In shawnee the breakfast is outstanding, elite of elite.

didn't see. didn't want to wander around that much...could be dangerous to do that (in mhk, at least)

They had the breakfast advertised on their promotional so I am assuming they do.

It is a tragedy because now, we have at least an extra month without Cat football until next year. I hate wasting my life away but I can hardly wait until next year.

What's going in where the ALCO used to be on the west side of town? They're doing some remodeling and exterior work, but I haven't heard what's going in there.

Yeah, Ray's is moving over to the old Alco building. Putting in a bakery and deli. Not sure what will be in the old Ray's though. The grocery selection is looking good for MHK.  :dancin:

When I worked at the Hy-Vee here in Topeka (deli) I ate alot of free olives.  I like the feta cheese stuffed ones best.

Went to HyVee on Sunday morning, had the Breakfast Buffet  :lick:, the guy making the omelets brought them to your table after you ordered and even called you by your name, then every time he went by he proceeded to ask how the omelet was and refer to me by name (very elite memory and he was very funny). Like other posters have said there is an olive bar and self check outs. The meat section was as other posters had said amazing and seemed to go on for miles. I also nearly got frostbite after venturing too far into the freezer section. The layout of the store was kind of odd though, I didn't really like having the bakery section next to the meat department (couldn't fully appreciate the fresh baked goods smell without smelling salmon and other fish at the same time  :yuck:) I mean don't get me wrong I like the smell of fresh beef and fish, but not when I'm trying to smell the Cinnamon Rolls and cuppin' cakes.

Here's something that is different than I've seen anyone say, all the employees were wearing Purple shirts and not the blue that had been reported. Thought that was kind of interesting and very EMAW. Finally as another person has stated Rays is moving next door into a much larger space, which means even more elite shopping for MHK.

Manhattan is going to be very comparable to St. George Utah.  I did some slight research on it, and I have personally never been there but it appears to show very high rapid growth in population.  Over 700-1,000 people are moving to St. George every month!  I feel Manhattan will have the same numbers soon if the Bio Lab comes into place.

Was in it a couple times last weekend.  Nice setup.  Not as nice as the one in KC but nice none the less.  Sams Club type floors though.  :yuck:

bad news guys. woke up this morning and really wanted breakfast but didn't have anybody to go get breakfast with and didn't want to go to the chef or similar elite type place alone. i went to hyvee and got a #11 (smothered browns) to go. they were bad. not even good. i'm sending a letter to hyvee mhk and asking them to send their bfast chef to the 6th st lawrence hyvee location to take notes. lawrence has us beat here. it did not feel good to break this bad news to everyone. sorry again.  :frown:

Both probably also flyover cities as well.

Wouldn't be surprised here. Quedubya was all set to go into the location Planet Sub currently occupies but they backed out because of customer parking concerns.

Company as a whole has been groveling ever since. Worst company mistake ever, etc, etc. CEO was ousted - no merit pay given to employees every since, etc, etc. .

Not new, but Kenrick has been boosting MHK's eliteness for years. YEARS. ;)
