Default been there a few times...

can't compare to super H.

Since it's a chinese joint, it does have the typical chinese goods you can't find at super H.

Korean stores are cleaner than Chinese. That's what my parents say, and they're Chinese. :-P

Usually cheaper, too. At least at Super H. Sometimes as much as 50% diff on produce and meats.

Default Haha

I neglected to mention that. It's part of Arab culture, that when you're shopping somewhere other than your usual stores, that it has to be cheaper too.

Never mind how long the drive is to get to the store, the actual merchandise is cheaper and that's what counts for Arabs.

Default I LOVE Super H. Great produce and all sorts of crap you can't find elsewhere. El Grande

in Springfield is a messican market and another favorite of mine. It's aptly named, too - the place is HUGE.

Default LOL!! "Never mind how long the drive is to get to the store" reminds me of a friend who's cheap.

He drove to a Dollar Store 30 minutes away to buy a window squeegy (sp?) for 99 cents.

Well, the squeegy left streaks on his windshield so he drove back 30 minutes to rerturn the squeegy and get his 99 cents back.

Default Oh no!!!!

That's hilarious!

Thank God my parents aren't cheap. My dad justifies it by saying he's retired and has nothing else to do, so why not make a run around to the various grocery stores...since he's out anyway.

But wow, drive 30 minutes for a $.99 item, then to return it, LMAO!
