So to take the counter argument, though not all MB’s are universally great, I’d go to the worst MB I know of over the best Price Chopper I’ve ever been in. No contest. Better quality, selection, staff, ambiance.

Right which is a bit proving my point that it’s based on the store. I don’t know the Price Choppers you’ve been in but the ones we’ve hit have ranged from “okay if you just need a jug of milk” to “where we get 90% of our food”. I’ve probably only been in a handful of Market Baskets but all of them have been subpar compared to the handful of Price Choppers I’ve consistently used over the years (but better than dozens of others I’ve been in for “grabbing milk”).

I’ve got 1 Market Basket in driving distance and I’d rate it a 6/10. I’ve got 4 Price Choppers and it’d be an 8, a 6, and a couple 5s. That being said, the “8” where we get the best experience is even just for 90% of the groceries only because they have a wider variety of stuff we are used to buying but we will do occasional meat/produce runs to the coop because it’s better still in those regards.
