I just got back from
my favourite supermarket, Acme Fresh Market. This is NO relation to the Philadelphia area chain. This is an Akron based, family owned chain, founded in 1891!
I have found that finding a good market, getting to know the staff, treating them with respect, and going regularly will reap BIG dividends.
Yes, some things are "special order", but since I am known, they always come through for me. It may be useful to remember this supermarket business saying: "For every customer who asks for a product, there are three who want it, but won't ask."
Link is to the chain, not just my local store.
