As the Uncle of the Bride (affectionately known as the UoB -- that would be pronounced "Ooooob"), it was my responsibility to drive up to the nearest Price Chopper and pick up the sandwich trays and wraps which had been ordered for the bridal party to enjoy while they got dressed for the ceremony.
A short drive up the Northway, to the next exit north of the Inn at Erlowest, and I found myself at this brand-new Price Chopper grocery store. It looked as though they had just pulled down the 'Grand Opening' signs, as this place was still sparkling on the insides. The shelves were fully stocked, the employees were very welcoming, and hardly anyone was inside (although I am sure that will soon change).
I made my way back to the deli counter and the ladies brought out one massive tray of deli subs for the groomsmen, a second platter of wraps for the bridesmaids, and a big bag filled with chips and pretzels. They helped me to load up my cart, and then I was off to wander the aisles and pick up some mixers and bottled water.
Checkout was a breeze, and again the staff was super-friendly and very thankful that I was shopping with them.
This is a fabulous store which will cater to area residents, and tourists coming to explore the Adirondack Mountains. read more
