explain??
ahhh okay thanks I was confused haha
Sorry, I love Whole Foods and have been shopping there for over a decade.. hate to see Amazon turn it into a Walmart.
I'm trying not to jump to conclusions and I'm going to give it a chance, but I like my local Whole Foods exactly as it is. I can't imagine how they can lower the prices and keep the same quality that they've always had. I shop there because every single department is superior to what is available in other grocery stores. I have many choices in the area where I live and I don't need or want another generic experience.Sorry, I love Whole Foods and have been shopping there for over a decade.. hate to see Amazon turn it into a Walmart.
I gave Whole Foods a chance once. I walked in, looked around, saw the prices and walked back out. They had their chance and they blew it.
Yes, but, it doesn't carry the pretentiousness that Whole Foods does. I'm guessing that along with confusing configurations is worthy of paying the long price.Another thing that bugged me about (at least my local) Whole Foods was the confusing layout of the store--odd, circular floor plan, with some aisles in a vertical direction and others in a horizontal one. The signage for the aisles is printed in a light colored font, on a light background. I don't have failing eyesight, but I find these difficult to read from even a short distance away.
All the other grocery stores in my area (there are 5 different chains here) have all their aisles facing in one direction, and have very clear, bold-faced signs for each aisle, that make it quick and easy to find what you're looking for.

I didn't realize that the 365 brand was now available online. That definitely interests me. Yes, Amazon is a staple in my life too. 5 Amazon packages expected today. My mailman hates me.I'm waiting to go over the weekend. I shop Whole Foods almost exclusively, except for a few of my nasty habits(Diet Pepsi). I can see this as a win, sure there is going to be some Amazon touches but improving the supply chain infrastructure(lowering costs) and having the ability to buy their 365 brands online now is the benefit. Amazon already rules my life, I gave into my corporate overlord long ago.

Because that makes it more of a game, like a maze. So really entertainment and shopping in one place, hence the higher price.
Maybe, but, having the Amazon connection coupled with lower prices will blow the hell out of the status importance of the place. First thing you know it will be a more refined Walmart.Ha!
Actually, my hubs likes to get a few special item things at Whole Foods, that he can't find elsewhere. He mentioned to me today that he is seeing some of the prices a bit lower, since Amazon took over. So that sounds positive for people who shop there on a regular basis.
I don't know anyone who has time to worry about their "status" while running weekly errands such as grocery shopping. What I do worry about is feeding my family nourishing meals free of dangerous chemicals and unhealthy additives, something that Whole Foods makes very easy since they have strict rules about what ingredients are allowed to be in the foods they sell.Maybe, but, having the Amazon connection coupled with lower prices will blow the hell out of the status importance of the place.
