Live on the South Shore near Easton?
Where do you grocery shop? My daughter and family just moved here from Indiana
and is very unhappy with Roche Bros, Shaw's and Stop & Shop, especially for meats. Granted, things are more expensive here than in Indiana but some of it is really foolish.

She is finding some things really out of line. Today, Roche Bros--Sirloin Tips. $13.99 a pound!!? ridiculous. Here(North Shore, Market Basket), not on sale they run about $5.99, less on sale.

Where do you got your meat? Anywhere near Easton? Reasonable?

I wish there was a Market Basket near her but they seem to stop short of that area.

Thanks for any advice.

1. Market Basket in on rte. 138 in Raynham
just over the Taunton line. Worth the trip.

2. BJ's Wholesale in Stoughton
One town over. You need a membership which is a nominal fee. It's where I buy all my meat. I like Roche Brothers myself, but it's a very expensive store.

4. BJ's is owned by Wal-Mart. They are not an option. n/t

6. I don't think that's true.
WalMart owns Sam's Club. BJ's is a publicly traded company.

3. Hannaford's
on rte 106 has good prices, a decent "Hannaford" brand selection and a good meat dept.
The closest Market Basket is about 20 minutes away in Taunton/Raynham...go early as it's always busy!
