See...if you have never been to Wegmans you won't get that.....and if you have driven 3 hours to get there, well why rush through? It is not like HT where you can be in an out in fifteen mins....it is literally ginormous with many, many selections of each and every little thing you can dream of plus others you might not even think of! And there are so many in-store dining options (yes I said DINING) - you may want a break in the midst of your shopping for a glass of wine and an appetizer, or maybe a little sushi, or maybe a slice of ultimate vanilla cake.....! Oh ye of little faith, soon you will all be drinking the Wegmans Koolaid and see what us Upstate NY'ers are so excited about!!!

Nah. I have. I just don't get it, but lots of people do have their attachments to various things. I'm sure I have some, too.
I do think you could spend that long in there if you liked being in any store that long, though. Me, I have a tough time spending that long in IKEA and it is GIGANTIC.

I think anyone who knows what a Publix is, got upset when we found they are now in states other than Florida... UNLESS they live in a state once not having them....
They used to be a completely Florida Only store - until the owner died, and his family got greedy....
Mr. Jenkins wasn't dead 5 minutes and his family was already plotting what states to open in. They also decided to no longer be an only Monday thru Saturday store - as they once were... (Their hours were once 7am to 9pm Monday thru Saturday - taking Sunday to 'do the things we need to do to better serve you.'
So much for THAT idea...
Honestly, I now live in AL - and frequent Publix at every opportunity - but never on a Sunday...
Lololol.......yes I have driven to Wegmans in Fredericksburg (heck it is ONLY 3 hrs and 15 mins from my house).....leave at 9AM - have lunch there (their subs are delish), shop leisurely for two or three hours, spend a bunch of money on Wegmans deliciousness, home by 6PM. I could care less about WaWa or Ikea but Wegmans that is a whole other story!!!
I personally would never drive that far to visit a grocery store much less spend 2-3 hours shopping.
I try to be in and out of any store in less than 15 minutes.

Same here. I went to one once, and was just not blown away. That said, I'm happy for those who have wanted it, and I always welcome more choices, especially those who will "up the game" of the current players. All in all it's a plus, but I too am not fully 'getting it'.
