I wanted to like Haggen. After all, the same wonderful employees are there. People count as much or more than "places," right? But the atmosphere is sterile, the prices are higher, and the Von's bakery I adored now hangs its baked bagels on a hook or rod. I found out those very bagels are too "hard" also. Maybe that's from them being on a hook, or maybe that's a new Haggen recipe. So that's a negative change. Before, I truly was grateful for Von's Just4U which enabled me to shop online and pre-select items before going into the store. I truly was grateful for the gas rewards. Haggen does not have either and I believe their prices overall are higher than Von's or other competing stores. So I only go there now out of sheer convenience, and the closest remaining Von's stores in Las Vegas are not close to me at all. Well, there is always change in life, and I always am critical of myself for not accepting some of it---but I wish my little Von's store had not gone away.
