Jesus that sounds awful.

I've had a decent experience with Kroger. They don't have any stores in my market, just a big warehouse. A Kroger employee on a Kroger refrigerated van delivers it all at once and always on time.

    Kroger owns a bunch of other brands. Do you have one of them in your market, and it's just a branding difference?

    No, there are no Kroger brands in my market (Florida) at all. Not anymore, they left decades ago.

    They're using us as a test market for the delivery-only format.

    There's three big warehouses (or maybe not, I think some closed), that's it.
