Ok I went inside. It smells like piss and mold. My brother is trying to convince me its like the old days when we went in the central terminal. I guess I am post asbestos. I think @libertad is moving in.
This lack of being able to buy beer at some music venues and all stores really annoys me and I barely drink.
Last night at the chez-a-rena they sort of got around it with this scam. For $30 they has an all you can eat VIP pizza buffet, and in the VIP lounge they also gave away "free beer" but you had to pay $30 to get on. To me, and especially because we had just eaten, that seemed like a total rip off. Even @terry didn't want to spend the money. Plus the VIP space was as far from the band as possible.
I don't know how alcoholics survive here if not by stockpiling. However, in my own personal experience I've noticed alcoholics are not good stockpilers.
As member owners, we decided we needed to visit the new coop. It is nice and kind of looks like a whole foods. There is definately a good selection of food although the prices, as usual, are a little outrageous.
For example, a 113 grams of salad for $3.99 or $17 for a piece of beef. Some stuff is also reasonably priced but in general it's too expensive for me. Yet as @joshua said they definately have some yummy treats.
I also don't understand the need for the giant loft ceiling on one half of the building. Maybe someone know more about that?
We bought lots of fruit for smoothies. I guess in the end, I am glad I have somewhere new to shop close by, but it won't make me forget wegmans is a local business to, with much more reasonable prices.
