Thanks... I had never heard of that chain before. I went shopping with Sweet Shirley at Wal Mart yesterday. We're putting on a brunch Sunday for newlyweds and about 30 friends. She's really a shopper and we spent $95. She believes we would have spent over $130 at Kroger, where we usually shop. We will go again on Saturday for fresh produce. Our new Super Wal Mart is really a nice, clean store.

PB, As you may have noticed, HEB has come on strong in the Houston area in the past few years, moving past competitors Randall's and others in some areas. Like Randall's, in earlier times HEB didn't sell alcohol, but Mr. Butt's offspring eventually changed the policy.

HEB also owns Central Market, an expanded supermarket concept.
