waiting to happen for my bank account!

It is so much fun to shop there. When they first opened here, the first place folks would show their out of town guests was Central Market.

Now not everything is expensive: you can buy spices from bulk bins, measure them out and weigh them. You would be amazed how much money is saved right there.
They also carry many basic HEB house brand items, which are often the least expensive one can find.

They have a wide range of tea in bulk, and the usual rices, beans, other grains, granola, snacks etc.

Great selection of coffee.

Thinking of the olive oil: I never knew how many varieties of olive oil and vinegar existed!! ALso honey

I will not buy seafood anywhere else, and if there is a special on sirloin steaks I will pop in and buy one- we usually get 2 or 3 meals from one, especially if I make stir fry.

I love that all the produce is labeled with the source. CM will never branch out of Texas because they have a very well established supply chain which maintains the incredible freshness of the perishable goods.

So Andy, what part of FW ? Wedgwood here
