6 Of The Most Popular Grocery Stores, Ranked From Best To Worst

As I’ve established multiple times, grocery stores are my favorite places on this planet. The warm atmosphere, the stacks and stacks of products on the shelves, the free tasting samples - just everything about grocery stores warms my heart. Just strolling in a grocery store without any intention of buying anything is in itself therapeutic and relaxing. Because of my complete and utter love for grocery stores, I’ve decided to come up with a comprehensive ranking of some of the most popular ones in the country.

1. Target

For anyone who knows me, Target is my ultimate grocery store, as it is packed with every product imaginable, from bedding to chocolate. The atmosphere is the same in every single one you walk into, making it feel like a second home.

2. Whole Foods

Now, Whole Foods is not only aesthetically pleasing, but it’s also packed with some of the most interesting foods. I know that I’m in for a treat whenever I head to this store, and the green and earth tones always fill me with happiness. Although pricey, it’s worth every penny.

3. Sam’s Club

While Sam’s Club lacks the initial aesthetic that most grocery stores have, it’s high up on my list because of the sheer accessibility and convenience it possesses. Whenever I need to buy my groceries in bulk, Sam’s Club is always there to save the day.

4. H-E-B

H-E-B is special because of the items it sells. There are times when I go to the store and am completely surprised by how many cool H-E-B only products there are on sale. My all-time favorite thing they have is the sushi.

5. Trader Joe’s

Trader Joe’s has an interesting vibe and is definitely one of the cooler grocery stores out there. It’s fresh and not too complicated, although it certainly tries hard at being the “in” grocery store among the others.

6. Walmart

Now, Walmart is the only exception to my love for grocery stores, as it completely lacks any of the qualities I enjoy in one. The lighting is too bright, the atmosphere is lacking in character, and the organization of it isn’t really my style. While I can appreciate it for the fact that it is a store, it simply does not do them any justice. Sorry Walmart, but your slogan should be “always low quality” (ouch, that feels harsh but I’m gonna keep it there anyway...sorry Walmart).

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
