All signs of the old Vons are gone, the only thing that remains are the bad memories. And in its place: yet another corporate market. Will it be better? Can we expect something else besides Cup o’ Noodles sales? Hmm, I’m gonna speculate no. Still, I know I will end up shopping here just out of convenience, so might as well go take a look at what’s happening. They had the Grand Opening on Wednesday, so this market is fresh! Let’s see something else.<\/p>\n

I thought nobody did this style of sign decoration anymore. Thumbs up!<\/p>\n

Damn, it was packed in the parking lot. People were circling and parking all over the place. I bet it will get back to normal once the place has been open for some time. I parked near my favorite tofu source, come phat<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Aside from all the instant noodles, they have other essentials. Wow, even Celebration Ale? I bet this selection isn’t going to last. Eventually it’ll mostly be Bud Lights and the equivalent. Oh yeah, they also had a 5 gallon bucket of dill pickles and a 35lb container of corn oil, for that fried pickle blowout we all secretly want to throw.<\/p>\n

The line was long, here I’m still way by that Wells Fargo bank. But it moved fast cuz they were doing it Fry’s style, with a lady directing you to your selected checkout line.<\/p>\n

I would have taken more pictures but didn’t see anything else that interesting. Plus I didn’t feel like getting into it<\/a> with a security guard about picture taking in the market.<\/p>\n

So yeah, its open.<\/p>\n
