[quote=Vinny536;35605570]I have a pretty deep dislike of walmart, but I have to say the neighborhood market in Cary on route 55 is a very nice store. it was clean, well stocked and had equal offerings to food lion/Kroger. If I were blindfolded and taken into that store I would have never guessed it was a walmart...well, besides their store brand products and signage....

I don't really know what the excitement is all about for Publix. I visited one in Florida on a few business trips and wasn't blown away. I think Harris Teeter, Wegman's or similar stores offer better quality than what I've seen at Publix.[/QUOTE

Vinny 536!! Wegmans!! Lord how I would LOVE to have a Wegmans! That is one of the big negatives for us moving to Brunswick County in three years (Ocean Ridge Plantation). I will dearly miss my WEGMANS in Mount Laurel - plus we have one 15 minutes away in Cherry Hill, NJ!! I even wrote to Corporate and told them they would make out wonderful with a Wegmans somewhere in Wilmington/Myrtle Area!!!

Harris Teeter very similar to Wegmans.....Live in Charlotte for 20 years where there's a Teeter every half mile and been up in NJ for 8 years and shop at Wegmans. As long as you will have a Teeter you will be A-OK.....

I would also love to see Wilmington get a Wegman's. It *may* happen sometime in the distant future. My dad works for Wegman's in NY, and he said they were considering their first NC location in the Raleigh area. *Fingers and toes crossed!*

My dad's a pharmacist for Wegman's, so I'm not sure how much pull he's got. :/ He did say he'd happily volunteer to be Wegman's first NC pharmacist!
