There Has Been An Unexpected Change to Amarillo’s Market Street

If I can say anything it is that I am a creature of habit. I go to the same stores a lot. I have my favorites when it comes to restaurants. I tend to keep within my circle. I try new things. I do. I just end up back to the familiar.

I know where stuff is located. It makes things faster. That was not the case over the weekend when I made a trip to Market Street. I tend to go there a lot. It had been a little over a week and a half since my last trip. That is not usual.

I had a big list of things I needed. It's grocery shopping. I feel we all tend to need a lot and spend a lot. It's the way of the world. I do go on the app and clip all the rewards that I can. I am thrilled when I can save money.

The first stop on my grocery list was the produce department. Heck, half of my list was stuff I needed in that area. Imagine my surprise when I couldn't find anything. I had to do a double and triple take. I decided to stand in the middle and just scope it all out.

I was used to having the bagged lettuce to the left. The pre-packaged fruits next. Then the heads of lettuce, the carrots and celery. I knew I could find the mushrooms at the end. Then the organic vegetables.

The Mushrooms Have Moved All the Way Down to the End Now Along With the Carrots

I knew in the center would be all of my tomatoes, the squashes, the potatoes. I just knew where everything was. Until it just wasn't. I mean I was able to find the stuff I needed. I know that in the end it will all be easier to find. I get why they did it. It makes sense.

It really does. I mean I just have to get used to it. I don't like change. Heck, I still have issues finding the bread. I mean how many years ago was it that the bread aisle was moved. I mean I know where it is. I just have to look down each aisle to make sure I turn on the right one.

I get it. Change has to happen. Just wait a long while until the next change up. I beg of you.
