Alls I know is that Albertson's paid their employees reasonably well and prices weren't nearly as much higher as you claim.

Also, other companies use a lot of part time labor because that's what the employees are looking for. (aside from their seasonal hiring, of course, which is all part time) A friend of mine manages a fast food restaurant. Almost everybody who wants full time gets it, so long as there are enough hours to go around. He's also got plenty of part timers, but the almost all want it that way. Works out well for him since he needs some part timers for Friday and Saturday rush and to fill in on occasion if someone calls in sick. And his company has a lower threshold to qualify for benefits than WMT does. Unless it's changed recently, WMT offers benefits if you work 40 hours a week. (for the purposes of marketing, they call 37 hour a week employees 'full time'). This particular restaurant chain offers benefits, including the accrual of paid vacation, if you work 25 hours a week or more.

Albertson's also treated those same employees like crap.  Have two close family members that were in that 'high wage' environment for a few years and it was not a job I would want.

There is no Reasor's at 15th & Harvard.  I've never noticed the Sushi at the 15th & Lewis one but there is some at 41st & Yale store. 

That part settled, who on earth buys sushi from Reasor's in the first place?  That seems so un-holy.  I can see buying from some place which actually makes it fresh like Whole Paycheck or Petty's (at least I think they do), but not pre-packaged, ghack!

Why would someone eat sushi here in the middle of the continent in the first place - regardless of who prepares it?  We are a thousand miles from the ocean for crying out loud! 

I did see a note in the news last week how it is so dry in western Oklahoma and most of Texas that the fish are stirring up small duststorms when they try to swim upstream!

In fairness, a lot of the sushi grade fish comes from Japan, so even eating sushi on the west coast means your fish came from thousands of miles away - not that I would buy sushi from Reasor's.

The Reasors in Jenks has an actual sushi bar with Sushi chefs preparing the sushi fresh to order.

Probably the closest thing we have to Market Street in the area.

Of all the places, Wichita Falls has about the coolest supermarket I've ever been in.

Fry's in Sierra Vista, AZ.  Puts almost all of ours to shame.  The Reasor's in Jenks is okay but pales to this particular Fry's.

I've been to the one in Flagstaff and was not particularly impressed. Maybe the one in SV is better.

I'm betting on some torn mumu's and more than one sample woman knocked the hell out in the stampede.

I have qualms with the "pay money to buy something from a warehouse full of mostly-junk stocked by minimum wage employees"

Now.. If we had a Costco I'd think about it.
