Expansion on Brookside is under way.

If you ever find yourself at Whole Foods on a Saturday, you know how packed that place gets.  It's hard to even get a cart through the isles. 

I have a solution though.

As soon as you walk in, go to the customer service desk and tell them that the owner of a metallic colored Subaru has left their lights on.  Once they make the announcement, everyone will leave the store giving you more room to browse around.

That or have them announce someone is giving away free Birkenstocks or Tom's in the parking lot.

Oh and we will have two and OKC will still only have one.

This is an old video I just ran across, but I see they were certainly excited ("super-excited") in Oklahoma City when they got their first Whole Foods Market back in October 2011.

Someone at another board said the OKC store is better set up because it was built from the ground up to be a Whole Foods, while the Tulsa location on 41st was a Wild Oats until the buyout in 2007. I can't say because I haven't been to the OKC store, but I understand they would never have gotten one at all without Aubrey McClendon and Chesapeake.

Anyway, it's nice that Tulsa will have two Whole Foods stores. I used to enjoy Borders Books and Music, and probably annoyed several people by bragging that literate Tulsa had two stores while bigger OKC had just one. Yes, it was a corporate chain bookstore, but I loved it, great atmosphere and selection. Any bragging rights are irrelevant now, as no one anywhere has a Borders bookstore.

And ironic that one of our Borders stores became home to a chief competitor with Whole Foods.

Irony.

All I see is blank space but if I hit quote I see the hyperlink to a picture and can copy and paste into my browser to see the image.  Seems to happen a lot here.  Do I not have access to the super secret photos?
