Like saying there was too much pollution in the Atlantic Ocean near England, so Miami has to keep out of the water

Both the Atlantic right?

Seems like pricing is the same or slightly more than Unger's. I guess the selection may be better?

Will it work for ice cream or will that melt just above freezing for so many hours?

[dealfinder11]

Not familiar with Ungar's pricing, however this almost filled up immediately thru word of mouth, so apparently there is some demand/interest for this service, be it price, selection or quality. Or perhaps convenience.

Do you mean to suggest that Cleveland has competitive kosher grocery pricing relative to Lakewood?

Is this considered good pricing for Lakewood? Surprised that things aren't cheaper.
Checked a couple items and it seemed to be more expensive than Ungers, unless things have gone up in recent months.

They’re not the cheapest store in Lakewood if that’s your question but groceries in Lakewood are more expensive than, say, Brooklyn

[Dan]

I wonder why not use the cheapest store once going through all the hassle?

feel free to compare to NPGS. You will be surprised with any gap in pricing if any at all. Besides the quality does not match up.

same interface so easy to compare.

Kosher West offered to wave a long distance trucking fee. Only difference in cost between Lakewood and Cleveland is $2.50 in picking fee ($7.50 V $10).

[mmgfarb]

If that's really what normal pricing is in lakewood then I don't know why people still think food is cheaper in lakewood than OOT.

Depends what you mean by OOT but Lakewood groceries are not cheap
