    I also forgot to mention in the video but if you buy a case of something, you get a 10% discount! Associates can help you out with this so just ask! What other tips do you have?

    I don't know whether WF has gotten cheaper or everywhere else has gotten more expensive, but if you're shopping for organic and vegan, WF is competitive with all the other options and they have a fantastic selection.

    as much as i would prefer to shop elsewhere, due to bezos, this is where i shop. the ease of finding good organic produce and lots of vegan options is a win for me. i am a bit jealous that your WF is waaaay more stacked with vegan options! the specialty mushrooms, the food bar, the bulk section, and the pastry/desserts are much more loaded than mine☹

    I think Whole Foods isnt as bad as everyone makes it out to be. I did worked there as a parttime job and they actually seem to treat their employees better than other places. I mean the second I started you get time for paid time off and they sign you up for benefits for 401K and their food isnt as greasy when it comes to their hot bar I have noticed. I also think if you smart you can save there. Sorry to go off but I just had to say that.

    Envious that Whole Foods has a better selection of vegan options that mine and I shop there once a week. Love their 365 brands and their vegan meatballs. Suggestion- buy your tofu and tempeh from Trader Joe’s as their prices are much lower than Whole Foods….

    I am vegetarian but try to lean vegan. We are getting a Whole Foods near me soon so I’m pretty excited. My best friend is vegan so this will make things easier on us. We are going out tomorrow for a Happy Hour and there is literally nothing to eat so either she or I bring vegan protein bars and have a snack together. Lol. This happens a lot in our area because we live near the ocean, very seafood and meat community.
