    Today I don’t care if my HEB is open, short staffed, or if I can’t buy shit  they make because it’s out of stock.   They always come through when Texans are in need.

Have tried all the seasonal offerings for years, my favorite so far. On bag #4.

Someone had the applie pie flavored chips here.  I tried a couple.

NOPE.

They need to quit beating around the bush with their weird infatuation with marrying foods that have no business going together and make me brisket flavored ice cream.

The specialty flavor chips seem enticing, but all of them I've tried have just been meh -- the seasoning is about 60% salt and the remaining 40% is some concoction that has little resemblance to the flavor advertised on the bag.

Brisket flavored chips would bring about the rapture. How has no one done this?

Just take a normal chip and dip it in liquid smole.

Looks like the baby will be born too big for that.

I found myself in north DFW today and hit up one of the new HEBs.  Didn’t buy much, but I had yet to sample the frozen Luby’s mac and cheese.  Slammed and went hard.  Not quite the perfection that you get from an old lady serving it to you fresh in between smoke breaks, but pretty good.

HEB makes Luby's frozen mac and cheese?

Semantics.  It’s good.  I have certainly had better, fancier mac&cheese, but the taste profile of Luby’s takes me back to my childhood when we were staying at my grandparents when the parents were out of town.  99% of the time we went to the cafeteria.  If I hit a walk off grandslam we might go to Steak and Ale, but absent my heroics we went to Luby’s.

I'm sure it's good, I just thought it was weird they would make another brand of mac/cheese to compete with their own brand, which is also good.

Unless they're charging a lot more, they'd lose money just on the branding/licensing fees.

They’re charging more.  I’m their mark.

HEB should have just opened Luby's in the deli section. 

Knock off Hawaiian Rolls have been a nice treat.

I hope none of you have to go to HEB today.  It is the worst grocery shopping day of the year.  Hell is being stuck behind someone who never goes grocery shopping while they slowly peruse every fucking shelf in the store.

heh.  I've already been this morning.  I'd rather dodge the workers stocking the shelves and their totes and pallets than the fools who wait til 3pm the day before Thanksgiving.

I went for a few last minute items at Central Market this morning when it opened at 7am. By the time I left the store at around 720 the parking lot was packed.

My Hâ€'Eâ€'B on Burnet still has curbside slots available for today. They were all available yesterday so I did an order for this morning instead of going in person.

Went to get a flu shot yesterday at noon and the place was jammed. Can't even imagine today

That's the only way to fly.

H‑E‑B pricing is whack. H‑E‑B pecan pie was $15. A pie double the size was $17 at costco, pumpkin pie was $6

You’re forgetting the point of all these oddball flavors of HEB snacks, Lays chips, m&ms, Mountain Dew, etc. Just selling one to the curious. They could give a shit if you actually like them. Yes I’ll try a biscuits a gravy Mountain Dew. A bag of queso m&ms. Sure thing.

Today is for the amateurs.

So did you get some digits?

Went to the Frisco location for the first time and tried the rotisserie chicken salad I’d heard about from folks and good lord. Wanted to stick my dick in it. Nice having access to prasek’s Summer Sausage.

The deli sells this post-oak smoked ham, these are the things that separates HEB from the pack. Damn

That’s BS.   HEB and WB has been paired up in Lytle for over 10 years.   
 

Fake news!!

Lytle? Didn't realize you were a Butt Pirate.

Lytle HS mascot is the Pirates. I played against them in football/baseball growing up. We had a very creative nickname for them as the "Butt Pirates" because teenage boys are easily amused.

Has anyone else tried their debit card? We just received ours and are syncing it with our online account. We'll try it for a few months and see how it goes.

You get 5% back on all HEB-branded products. So that includes Mi Tienda, HCF, Creamy Creations, Central Market, etc.

Seems like a no-brainer to me considering how much we spend there and what we buy.

 

You can get an amex blue cash preferred and get 6% on all grocery purchases and 3% on gas.

Ah, OK.  

I'm not from Lytle.  I just pass frequently pass through and stop at the HEB / WB.

* Limited to $1500 per quarter on the groceries.  We usually hit the limit in a month or so, but it's still average of $30/month back for groceries alone.

Yeah, they do cap it, but it still pays for itself multiple times per year.  I have bought 2 iphones and a laptop with Amex points over the last 3 years.

Picked this up the other day and it has quickly become my favorite seasoning.

It will be interesting to see if it's the nail in the coffin for the terrible Randall's in Casis Village.

It won't be. That store has a very particular niche.
