+1. Whole Foods is an exponentially stronger brand for a grocery store. Why would they waste billions trying to create a new grocery store brand from scratch? Sometimes I think this sort of “dumb” insider stuff in business is just an insider scam to launder and embezzle large sums of money.

Proximity, low prices for a lot of items, and much longer hours than the lovely old family grocery that used to sit in the same spot. Plus Amazon returns and a wine bar next door. I agree the restocking seemed awful and a lot of the staff were constantly stoned. And it's freezing all year round for some reason. But not having to get in the car and sit in stupid Bethesda or Kensington traffic? Priceless!


Prices were absurd at Potomac yard

Amazon is just doing its own deliveries. They are not liosing volume.

Amazon Fresh was the only grocery place that fully committed to the hot bar section after Covid wiped it out at Wegmans and Whole Foods, and the Amazon Fresh at Manchester Lakes in Kingstowne was always very busy at lunch time.

I bet they will- still a good spot for groceries.

The grocery part was okay but it was the easiest way to return Amazon purchases
