Whole paycheck needs some good competition.

Let's hope for Tulsa, CBRE, and a landlord and maybe Sunflower will open a store or two here.


"The new Oklahoma City store will offer customers all-natural and organic groceries at the lowest possible prices. The market will feature fresh local produce, all-natural meats and seafood, a large bulk selection and a deli, plus natural living health and wellness products."

Could that be the chain that's going in at The Walk at Tulsa Hills?

Hope so. But I think when it is organics it's focused on those who spend for quality.

Sunflower is very much a budget organic, at least as far as meat/produce.  Your on-the-shelf goods are going to be the same price as Whole Foods but the spoilable goods are at a lower price point (and quality level).  Still a good store, though.  They were my prediction for Tulsa Hills, looking solid.

Plant your own and learn the finer points of canning and dehydration if you really want to know what's gone into your food.

You're gonna need a larger pressure cooker!  The 7 quart won't do it.  Need a 19 quart one, otherwise canning takes way too much time.  Love the results, though!!  Especially if you have a couple bushels of anything!

Sam's pick up works well.  Have used it quite a bit.  Get online and put together an order, then go get it the next day.  Fantastic.  (No produce, though)

Maybe a hybrid of shopping/delivery??  You go to the store and pick out everything, pay, then have them deliver what you chose?  Not sure any of them do that, but might be worth asking about.  Get to see what you buy, then they bring it.


Going for the vertigo stare....

Isn't that Teatownassclown's thing?

You knew exactly where that was headed

I've heard that they're courting 'Sprouts Farmer Market' as their grocery store component.  There's nothing on Sprouts website to confirm it but that's the name I've heard tossed about.  We'll see.

I've heard the same.  I'd like to see Sunflower take over the now-closed D'Novo space at 61st & Yale.
