Friday's SMAKOFF non snak edition: MHK GROCERY STORE GRINDOUT

[jmlynch1]

I voted west side Rays. I also rarely grocery shop in MHK anymore except for tailgate, but I always try to spend at least ten dollars so I can get a stamp thing and then my mom can get a free washcloth or whatever prize they are giving away.

rays pro tip- if there is a lot people in line to check out (lol), you can you go to the customer service counter and they will be happy to check you out. 

Can I now change my vote from Dillon's to Ray's?

maybe. mods?

I'm eastside dillons. Ghetto Rays/ food 4 less was a staple of mine in years gone by.

[Stevesie60]

East side Dillon's. But it was hard for me to vote because if I lived in the west part or even the central part of Manhattan it would be Ray's and it wouldn't even be close.

[TownieCat]

I shop almost exclusively at West Dillon's because of proximity and the gas discount. Also the self checkout line is a major bonus.

The only thing that HyVee brings to the table is its admittedly superior butcher shop. I can count on one hand the number of times I've bought anything at any of the Ray's because 

Also, @CF3, the Manhattan HyVee opened like a billion years ago...2008ish.

I'm gonna go with Dillons on this one. I had some friends who worked there and they would weigh my salads as a banana price weight.  2lb salads for like $1.

Only thing about hyvee that sucks is the deli meat is low quality. I have to go to dillons to get it

[hatingfrancisco]

Anyone that bitches about the Westloop Dillons aisle setup has never been to HyVee.   

[TownieCat]

The Manhattan HyVee is set up backwards from every other HyVee I've been in 

[The Tonya Harding of Twitter Users Creep]

i was always a westloop dillons guy when i was in school unless i wanted chinese food. hyvee's chinese food is 100x better than westloop dillons chinese food. thats about all they have on WD.

Dude, chinaman is not the preferred nomenclature. asian american please.

[pissclams]

not really sure a chinaman would prefer to be labeled "asian" but hey we're all just cattle on the car so let's get out there and cheer on the cats, go cats.

so what you are saying here that ray's is the better grocer but you go to east dillons due to proximity

well just an update for all the listeners out there- the chinaman food was delayed until today but turned out pretty good

how great would their chinaman food be if they made the chow mein without the vegetables in it.  not a question.

Mhk needs a stand alone panda xpress

I have a Q-Card coupon that I can reuse throughout the year and a $2.99 chinese food meal from hyvee is one of them.

The price chopper on roe is the best grocery store I've ever been in, so you should go there instead (tho hen house has a bomb ass deli meat selection)

looks like we can count cat AD John Currie down as a rays goer.
