My guess is that Amazon will make sure more WFs get opened as it will integrate into the delivery ecosystem for the website. I expect their store count in the Triangle doubles in the next 5 years. I like this larger store and the la farm bakery in particular

Are the prices really that lowered? I personally haven't noticed a big difference with the limited shopping I do there

The La Farm bakery stuff sure seemed over-priced to me. But, the nearby demo can afford it, I suppose.

More about their prices:

quote:

“Whole Foods Market and Amazon have a shared goal to bring the highest quality, natural and organic food at affordable prices to everyone, and we’re just getting started. Since the close of the acquisition less than four months ago, we’ve lowered prices on many of our best-selling grocery items and holiday staples, and this is just the beginning. We’ll continue to work closely together to ensure we’re consistently surprising and delighting our customers while moving toward our goal, and plan to offer more in-store benefits and lower prices for customers as we continue to integrate with Amazon.”

Overall prices at Whole Foods are down just 1.1 percent since Amazon bought the company, according to a survey released on Tuesday by Gordon Haskett, a New York City research firm. They compared prices on 110 items at a Princeton, New Jersey Whole Foods just after Thanksgiving with prices for the same items in August, just ahead of the Amazon deal closing.
