[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The thing is, DC is filled with people from elsewhere, so when something that reminds them of home opens here, they get really really excited.  And then they tell everyone how amazing it is and how lucky we are to be getting one, because it reminds them of home.  And then everyone who is not reminded of home visits this new, super-hyped establishment, and thinks "why was the opening of this in the news?" because in reality it's just a grocery store.

I learned this when Wawa opened on 19th street.  Turns out, Wawa is a freaking gas station.  Why did I have to read about the impending opening of a gas station with no gas pumps on PoPville for 6 months? [/quote]

Western NY native who is (im)patiently waiting for the Rockville wegmans to open....fair enough.  But what has always appealed to me about Wegmans is that it is the most "complete" grocery store.  Other stores may have them beat on particular characteristics, but they are the best combination of quality, selection, and prices, IMO.  I tend to leave there with everything I need.

I haven't been to the Wisconson ave location, and I do think that overall Wegmans has suffered a bit from expansion.  The produce dept can be more hit or miss than a few years ago.  [/quote]
The Rockville Wegmans is supposed to be one of the smaller urban stores, so I’m not holding my breath until 2025.[/quote]

Blah!  Although I guess that makes sense, the plot of land does not seem all that big.[/quote]
