All About Fareway

I went to Fareway today,  the local grocery store and midwest chain. I love going to Fareway. I'm not sure how much of this is the fact that I actually like the store, or just that I am going a little stir-crazy and enjoy pretty much any time I get out of the house. 

I also think I enjoy it because it's local and so small. I know that there are other Fareways, but this is the only one I've been in, so it feels unique to Winterset. It's also nice to not have to wander a really long way just to get from the frozen vegetables to the milk. There are slightly fewer choices than you would get in a Wal-Mart or Safeway, but since I am not decisive, this pleases me. And the prices are good... they are actually somewhat similar to Wal-Mart, and things that are on sale are cheaper than you can get them at the Wal-Mart in Des Moines.

Also, Fareway can be a social time because it is a major employer here in town. About half the kids in the youth group work at Fareway, so if I go after 3:00 or so I get to see people I know.

So anyway, grocery shopping is fun again.
