Wow I never would have thought it would make it to Ft Worth. I wish they would put one in El Paso, I would definately have to make more trips there. I actually worked at HEB for a couple of years.

You and me too, I wish they have never closed the Albertsons. I like the veggies at Lowes and I buy the kids their sodas and used to love the tortillas but lately they stick together even though they put the plastic between them. Their alcohol is usually pretty cheap and they have everything.

I get their corn tortillas because all they have in them is the standard corn, water and lime. They tend to split, but they taste ok.

All of the others usually have additives...and sometimes even regular wheat flour...in corn tortillas!!

Was it in the building that they want to make into the library? Why did they move out of that building? It seems alot bigger than the present IGA.

I want to say when we moved here in 2000 there was still a Big 8 sign but I think it had already closed. I really miss the Albertsons though, they were expensive but most things but their sales could be really good.
