I buy my milk there organic 1percent was $ 1.99 a half gallon two weeks ago I don't think it gets better than that. I like to keep a jar or two of Rao's in the house for emergencies and they were selling the large jars for $4.99 on sale a few weeks ago. Thats about it for me. I purchased mussels there once and and half of them didn't open I have heard that this has happened to other.s I haven't purchased any seafood from them since. I do however feel they offer the best customer service of any store period and I really appreciate that.

I hope you let them know about the problem with the mussels. They are amazingly good about refunds.
As for sales, there is still a full page of them each week. Perhaps there is the perception of fewer sales if the stuff they put on sale isn't what one buys. It's been a bad winter, with higher fuel prices, so fresh produce is certainly more expensive than most of us would like it to be.

Don't worry, I wasn't arguing :-) -- just pointing out, partly for others, that you don't have to actually bring in something that you weren't satisfied with, to get a refund.
I once had a box of clementines with a couple moldy ones. I brought the receipt to a different Stew's and they offered me a refund. I said I'd be happy just to have another box of clementines--in fact, even a partial one, but they gave me a full one.
I was once with a friend who talked to them about a duck he'd bought that he wasn't happy with. No questions asked, $20+ refund.
I get seafood there (and everywhere) less regularly than I used to, because it's gotten so expensive--and I'm still leery about Gulf shellfish. I miss those jumbo wild Gulf shrimp specials they used to have before the BP oil disaster.

The price of coffee has increased, and the brewed stuff is fairly weak too.
