Groceries

[tfabris]

Anyone know of a grocery store chain in the Seattle area that carries these exact brands, flavors, and quantities of the following three products simultaneously in the same store?



The Albertson's near my house does in fact carry the knudsen stuff, however, their supplier refresh rate is TERRIBLE. I often go there and find that its expiration date is either past due, or it's coming up in a day or two. That stuff should have a lead-time of at least a week or two. Near the end of January, I bought a tub of the stuff dated Feb 2nd, then returned 7 days later to get more, and found the stuff on the shelf was still dated Feb 2nd (which was by then only a day or two off).

Looked at a number of other local places, and while stores often carry the snapple (unlike my Albertsons), that Knudsen stuff is as rare as a bag full of rare things.

Hmm ... safeway.com's online store (which delivers here to MSFT) seems to have the cottage cheese and the diet peach Snapple, but not the diet cran/rasberry. Oddly enough, albertsons.com (which also delivers here to MSFT from their Issaquah store) also has those two items but not the third. If you like, I could get you the store phone#--we've ordered from them for parties for years now, and if they have the cran/rasberry in stock, they could almost certainly make a "custom" order for you, that you could repeat as needed. That would also be a good way to get them to check the expiration date on the cottage cheese.

I've been to multiple safeway stores in the area, and none of them ever carry the knudsen's.

I can always get the snapples I want at Safeway, but what I'm looking for is a single store near my house that can be my regular haunt because it always carries my particular favorites.
