That would be great news since Lakewood has a terrible shortage of large and more expensive groceries.

The answer to that is definitely more groceries. Competition lowers costs more effectively then any other method. Just wait until Bingo decides to open in Lakewood, and see what that does for pricing.

If supermarket owner #1 knows he needs to compete for your dollar against four other choices, some of which are relatively close by, as opposed to perhaps one other choice, on the other side of town, which one do you think is more likely to cause him to have better prices?

In Lakewood there is also competition to who can be the most upscale. There are lots of super fancy people here, who will only shop at the most choshuver grocery.
So unfortunately it works the other way here. The new groceries have increased demand, not just supply.

The economics of Lakewood are backwards.

Anyone know if Marcy’s already moved into new location? If they haven’t yet when?
I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

Considering 5 gallon water delivery, I have my own cooler. Any suggestions on the best price / service? Costco has delivery fees, which offset the lower price of the water. I want the least expensive possible...

Thanx, I’m thinking to call them up.
I’ve been getting some weird newspaper along with the Voice lately
Seems like propaganda for the people fighting the draft in Israel
Not sure why, but it rubs me the wrong way

The newspaper comes from London. I should really do that. I just throw all the magazines I get straight to the garbage. Make the township a couple of cents for recycling.

If you mean Lehovin, I was told it was started by R' Aharon Schechter to present the view of R' Shmuel Auerbach.

thats what I thought.
 I just don’t like the way they’re doing it. Not sure why, but it seems kinda sly like they’re trying to sneak in the machlokes without anyone chopping
It’s funny how they try to appear like a regular newspaper by sticking in random news, having a kids section, and the best of all... they have rebbitzins recipes! 🤣
