I just moved to Charlotte a few weeks ago. The grocery chains here are different from the stores that I know in MD/DC and SoFl. In MD, I shopped for all of my veggies, meat, etc. at the local amish market. I loved it and that's one of the things I miss most about MD other than Crabcakes from Phillips in Baltimore. I read on a another thread that there is Amish sotre in Caswell County. I'm not familiar with the area so I don't know how far that is from here.
What chains have the best prices, best food quality etc.? I'm near a Lowe's Food, Harris Teeter, and BiLo. I like Whole Foods but there are none in this area. I hate Walmart so I will not go there. Thanks for your help.
Are you sure there isn't a Whole Foods in Charlotte??? I could've sworn there was.
There's also a smaller-chain version of it called Earth Fare that is in many NC cities...I think Charlotte has one or two of those too.

Blanch, NC, ( in Caswell county) where Yoder's store is located, is almost 3 hours from Charlotte. Kind of a hike There are two Whole Food Markets in the development phase for Charlotte ( according to the Whole Foods website) but no opening date listed as yet.
I prefer Lowes over Harris Teeter although each store has some things that the other doesn't. Each store has various specials at different times that the other doesn't. I live in the Triad area, though, not Charlotte.
I've only been to a Bi-Lo once. It's a bit of a distant memory.
If you ask your question in the Charlotte forum you may get more responses.
The Whitehall Commons BI-LO always has beggars outside of it. I might have to stop shopping there just so I don't have to deal with them. I get asked for money or cigarettes even though I don't smoke, every time I stop there.
