There are always alternatives. NE and Boston have "beautiful" stores as well. But I prefer FL so I will stay here and enjoy WD, Publix, Fresh Market, etc. if I feel really hard up (which I won't) I'll go to The Meat Market in Orlando or any number of many other places between here and Orlando with excellent meats, fish, and produce. Cache is just that cache - worthless but a justification for beautiful & stylish prices.

You need the card to pay for what you would normally pay at any other store
They make a big deal you just saved $$$$$

No you didn't rip me off as and bad and the public falls for it

Without using my card, and comparing prices, I found WD to be less expensive. I tracked prices for purchases for about 2 months before I requested a card. Most of our purchases are for produce, certain meats, and some tonic (sodas). I tend to buy bulk products at Sams.

If you don't have a card, WD checkers will use the store card, just ask.

And Duke's is definitely better than Hellsman, or any other mayo sold around here.

Actually, you don't have to have your card with you.....just give them the phone number the card is registered under and you can get the discount!

Ok. I will give Duke's a try.

Dukes is great! Really good in pasta salads! It tastes like mayo with a bit of Miracle Whip mixed in.

I think that it's because Winn Dixie charges more.

Why do you shop at W D or Walmart when you can go to Aldi or Save A lot get the same quality for much less. And why do you have that car insurance.

Where is Scarsdale and what is Cache'? And the answer is Hellmanns.

Oh, boo. I am going to have to respectfully disagree with Graciegirl on this one. Duke's is the Secret to Southern Cooking. There is no sugar in Duke's like there is in Hellman's. Hellman's is salad dressing. Duke's is Mayonnaise with a capital M. Sorry, Graciegirl. Let's do lunch soon!

I like peanut butter.

I was thinking the same thing. At my house, The usual bunch?

Did you know German descendants put sugar in their slaw and in their potato salad and in their red tomato spaghetti sauce?

I am now a southern woman of German descent. Maybe if I bought Duke's and put a teaspoon of sugar in it................

Dukes! Dukes! Dukes! Better at any price.
