Marv's Neighbor Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Just got home. What a freakin zoo! Parking lot may be inadequate. Between the Wegmans crowd, and Sams Club, (across the road) on the N side of Rt 60, it's mostly impassable. I'll give it 10 days or 2 weeks and go again. I wish they had a standard store layout. I'm used to Fredericksburg, and this is mostly different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maury Ballstein Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) https://twitter.com/plenzmd1/status/732521160680820737Saw your 2nd tweet. Richard Sherman and Marshawn Lynch wait tables in Richmond? Omg. How much would those seats run. To be able to yell legion of boom at Sherman while he pours my wine is worth 500.00. Cost has to be triple that at minimum no ? Edited May 22, 2016 by Ryan L Billz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Poojer Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 they just did a complete layover at my local wegmans...i wonder if the fredericksburg location is the older layout and the midlo one is the newest planogram. i am still getting used to the new layout Just got home.

One of the hotter new restaurants here as well. Rumor is "aw shucks, what a great guy I am Russell Wilson" could not carve out the time for his home town...while these guys could. Just got home.

Marv's Neighbor Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Yes, the widening project is done, but when the county police won't let you use the new lanes, bad things man, bad things! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Poojer Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 I'd always heard rumors of a "gentleman's agreement" between the Wegmans and Ukrops, this is the first time I've seen/heard it out loud http://www.richmond.com/business/local/article_fd9d1861-f87e-57c6-85fa-0aa23dee271a.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just can't let any of my West End brethren know i am going to the South Side...might never be able to play West End Reindeer games again! Will give a report this afternoon!

The Poojer Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 i heard they had over 24,000 show up the first day, 3rd largest opening...i would imagine the n. virginia locations had higher numbers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beef Jerky Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) I used to audit the new Wegmans before they would have a grand opening. The inside of some of the stores can hold $2 million+ dollar of merchandise on shelve space alone. Edited May 25, 2016 by Beef Jerky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plenzmd1 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 back from the initial jaunt...holy moley the place is still packed, even on a Wed. afternoon at 1.30! Little different layout than the NOVA ones, but close enough! No oyster bar., but they do have The Pub, full-service restaurant . Pretty pricey though in there, cheeseburger was $12. We split a pizza combo and had a few wings from the bar. Just about all the WNY hotdog/sausage was wiped out. I took the last Sahlens, 2 packages of Zwigels left..Hofmans and Wardynski Sausage gone! One last thing...if you like SmartMouth beers, for some reason they have them $6.99 a six. I like the Alter Ego Saison, pay $12.99 for it at Total Wine...just wiped em out of the 4 cases they had. That ain't gonna last for long before they realize they have them mispriced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
