Yeah, exactly. They play a game that works. Save $1/gal on milk...

but they probably make up for that if you're too tired to fix lunch and grab something at their hot bar. Similarly, they have a lot of "kit" items. Need 8 ounces of bean sprouts for that recipe in the Wegman's magazine? Only $2, not too bad, until you consider that they're 69 cents a pound somewhere else.

Not complaining, the choice is yours and they let you choose where on that price/effort you want to be preparing meals.
