Milk Chocolate bar, 0.38 (I bought TEN!)
Ginger Peach tea bags, 1.95
Blackberry tea bags, 1.95
Choco Covered Espresso Beans, 2.98
oh why oh why oh why don't we have one of these here yet in SF?
This place is a reasonably priced, environmentally conscious parallel to Whole Paycheck. They have a 'self check out' system which actually *works* (believe me, i had my doubts) and the staff was really quite helpful.
OH! and though I didn't get a chance to try it:
Big Kahuna Chardonnay, 1.98.
It's their version of "two buck chuck"- let's see if that gets the same accolades as Charles Shaw... only time will tell!
Their prices on OTC medications and the daily staples are actually quite reasonable.
(As much as I love TJs, my patience with the ones in SF has been tried... the parking, the lines... unless it's 2PM on a Tuesday, I'll likely avoid TJs in SF these days. )
UPDATE! SF *will* be home to a Fresh & Easy!
HURRAAAAAAAAAAY \(^_^)/
Beth V of SF! thank you for sharing!

After years, Bayview will finally get full-service grocery store

The world's third-largest retailer plans to open the first full-service grocery store along San Francisco's Third Street corridor, concluding a more than decadelong effort by city officials to expand the impoverished area's food shopping options.
Fresh & Easy Neighborhood Market, the aggressively expanding U.S. division of British-based Tesco PLC, has signed an agreement to buy the 15,000-square-foot retail space of a condominium project from co-developers Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Noteware Development, said Roberto Munoz, the company's neighborhood affairs manager. The 360-unit project is located at 5800 Third St., a former Coca-Cola factory.
Eagerly waiting for them to *open* *open* *open*
