| - I shopped here the week they opened. I tried it again today, and it's my last visit. I try to shop locally, I want to support businesses, but when it becomes a hassle to shop there, forget it.
I had my vegan shopping list. They had everything I needed - almost. The fresh spinach was slimy, disgusting, and overpriced. I would have to throw out half of the bunch and waste a lot of money. After leaving, I still had to stop at Safeway to finish the shopping list. If I had just gone to Safeway I could have bought everything I needed, saved money, and time. Organic or not, who cares?
Natural Grocers still has this silly pretense of no bags - you have to bring your own. C'mon! Use paper if it's such a big deal, but like it or not most of us will go back to Sprouts or Trader Joes both of which have bags.
This place is doomed - too high priced, too pretentious, weak produce section. It will become another empty eyesore. Didn't anyone learn the lessons from the failed Fresh n' Easy? The average guy doesn't need this place any more than he needs the snobby Whole Foods. Trader Joes, Sprouts, Frys, Safeway, even Walmart are just fine. Lower prices and bags.
