My better half has been 4 times this week. And we live in Fairfax, within easy walking distance of the Roosevelt Publix. She also works in Brooklyn, which adds to the appeal as its within walking distance of her office.

That is not a misprint, 4 times.

Wow. They've only been open four or five days!

Imagine my surprise when she came home with another Fresh Market bag this morning :)

I went on Saturday morning and they were already sold out of Coca-Cola Life, which they still had plenty of on Thursday. First-world problems.

Heard about a pretty cool business looking at one of the unleased units in Brooklyn Station. Not currently in Jax and would fit in well with the tenant mix there. Not a gamechanger or anything, but would be a nice addition.

Lol Ken. Not even close. Just a cool, non-chain food related business.

Recently heard that the Fresh Market is killing it and exceeding expectations. I was recently told they are 30% above projected sales.

Probably all the people from San Marco that are forced over there because we still have no PUBLIX!!!  UGH.

Interesting.

They've been running some amazing sales lately, especially for dairy products (cheese, milk, yogurt, ice cream, etc).

Beware: About 50% of the stuff I've turned over lately has been expired. Not just a little expired..I mean by a few weeks.

The Tacachale household can vouch for that.
Do you believe that when the blue jay or another bird sings and the body is trembling, that is a signal that people are coming or something important is about to happen?
