Grocery Wars: As Meijer Enters Mix, 'Something's Got to Give'

Meijer's plans to enter Wauwatosa and Sussex add to a rapidly crowding grocery market populated by Pick 'n Save, Target, Walmart, Costco, Trader Joe's and others. Is there enough business for everyone?

Since everybody has to eat every day, usually several times a day, there is an inevitability built into the grocery business. There will always be somebody ready to fill that need. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t volatile. The retail grocery industry is highly competitive, and since the rise of the chain supermarket, it has typically been a high-volume, low-margin business. If the demand for food is always there out of necessity, it’s still subject to changing tastes, offers of better service or pricing, dips and turns in the economy, demographic shifts in customer bases and fluctuating commodity prices. Over the past two decades, the grocery business in metro Milwaukee has changed radically, and it is about to change again. Nowhere is that…

My favorite is Woodman's but there isn't one close enough to me to shop there regularly yet. I do like Pick n Save, Piggly Wiggly and Aldi combined as 2nd choices. I do double coupons at pick n save to end up with free things sometimes and this really helps the budget. Aldi and Woodmans are good for everyday low prices.   more ›

Lights Out at Sussex Pick ‘n Save and Surrounding Businesses

Residents are ushered out of the local stores until power is back online, a process that will take all afternoon.

Sussex-area residents shopping at a dozen local businesses – including the Main Street Pick ‘n Save – were cut short Thursday morning after a piece of power equipment failed, leaving the stores in the dark. Power was lost around 11:30 a.m., according to WE Energies representative Brian Manthey, and it's still in the process of being repaired. He says the repairs will take all afternoon. “It’s still going on right now,” Manthey said. “It looks like in Sussex there are 12 customers out of power. They’re still working on repairs… We’re still doing repairs, and it will most likely take the rest of the afternoon, until about 5 or 5:30 p.m.” Manthey said he’s unsure what specifically caused the power outage along Main Street, but he knows …

Fighting Sussex Fires One Brat at a Time

The Sussex Fire Auxiliary needs you to get hungry for brats on Saturday and excited about making a difference in the village.

Everyone loves a hearty, grilled brat, so why not make your next Wisconsin staple one that could potentially save a life? The Sussex Fire Auxiliary is holding a brat-fry fundraiser at the Sussex Pick ‘n Save on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. to raise money for the fire department. The group, which was formed by former Sussex Deputy Chief Cathy Selerski, bands together to raise money for life-saving tools that sometimes don’t make Sussex’s budget. “I retired as the deputy chief at the fire department in May after 29 years,” said Selerski when the group was formed. “And I knew it was time. I’d been talking about starting an auxiliary group for the fire department for years. Lisbon has an auxiliary, and they do so much to help out.”  From …

Very cool to be a part of this. The people from the Roundy's Foundation were incredibly nice, everyone pitched in to help us load up the cars. Then, store manager at the Sussex Pick-N-Save, Jeff and assistant store manager, Rick, both drove over to the food pantry to help us unload the cars and fill the shelves. Thank you!!   more ›
