August 16, 20241 yr A solid second place behind the El Patio chips and in front of the sea salt ones from the bakery

It seems like they are on sale half the time for cheap. I still buy them when I need a little more structural integrity in the chip.
August 16, 20241 yr Believe it or not, these Randalls tortilla chips don't suck at all. I like them a bit better than Casa Magnifica. Currently $1.61 for an 11 oz bag. Mmmm chips. (Just don't try their salsa, oof.)

August 19, 20241 yr If you grew up back when TexMex joints brought a stack of hot corn tortillas and there was a rack with butter pats at table, here’s an easy hack. Of course you can heat tortillas at home and recreate it. But an el Patio chip, dipped into some soft butter and some salt, recreates that same taste.

August 22, 20241 yr Could go in enshitification. HEB replaced the tasty and inexpensive bulk pack La Patrona salsa with branded Taco Deli salsa at twice the price.
August 27, 20241 yr Central Markets now all take tap to pay, should be rolling out to regular HEBs soon HEB has been slow on this because they didn't want Apple taking a few years to do market research and then buying a grocery chain using the purchase data available from tap to pay.
August 27, 20241 yr Their chip readers are the only ones on earth that struggle with my card. I have to try it 3 times and then it lets me swipe. Fuckin' HEB.

They've been shit from the day they were installed....which wasn't very long ago. I love HEB, but Equinox must have naked pics of someone to keep rolling out that trash (they did the last system as well, which also couldn't read chips for shit).

There are like 3 registers that will read my debit card chip at the Allandale HEB. The self check out worker said that RBFCU always has problems with their readers.

August 27, 20241 yr The bank doesn't matter - that's just cashiers making up their own biased stories. Mine's Chase and it doesn't matter what HEB it is, there's about a 30% chance it works the 1st time and about a 30% chance it fails 3x and I've got to swipe it. I'm so glad this is happening to all of you too - not because I wish this pain on others, but at least I know I'm not the only one.
August 27, 20241 yr as slow as their readers are they sure are quick to ask me if i want to round up or make a donation.
August 27, 20241 yr It would be fine if I could just swipe from the jump, but I have to acquire Triple Rejection Syndrome to get to that point. #whitepeopleproblems
August 28, 20241 yr Never seem to have a problem reading all the Lone Star cards at the Rundberg location.

No other grocery chain comes even remotely close. i regularly shop at 4-5 different stores in Denver, depending on what i need and where it's best...versus HEB + a monthly CostCo run. this thread is torture.

August 28, 20241 yr Why the hell does HEB put their brand of K-cup coffee - Texas Pecan - in the same color packaging as Snickernut Cookie? Argh. Anyone want 99 unused Snickernut cups?

August 28, 20241 yr Beats the shit out of that Taste of the Rio Grande that tastes like straight orange peel.
August 29, 20241 yr Who in their right mind would want to taste the Rio Grande?It’s better than their taste of Beaumont and taste of the below Dallas Trinity

I watched the cashier once use my card when the chip wouldn't read. She put the card in and put a bit of backwards pressure on the part of the card sticking out - thus making the chip push closer to the side while inserted. That's what I do now and it works most of the time.
