Chicago Grocery Highlights 5/16-5/23

This is my last week of grocery shopping in the Chicago area.

Wow. Good-bye Jewel. Today I shopped at Angelo Caputo’s and so hello and good-bye to Caputo’s, too. In my new home, I’ll be shopping at Trader Joe’s and Safeway, since both are a short walk from the new house.

So, this will be my last write-up of the Chicago grocery highlights as well.
