The Hy-Vee store in Oakdale, MN seen here on it's grand opening day.
Hy-Vee is the latest supermarket chain to enter the competitive Twin Cities Metro area supermarket war. As you can tell the parking lot is packed with customer vehicles. Apparently I wasn't the only interested in checking out the new location!
Overall for my first impressions, I thought this was a nice store. The staff seemed friendly and helpful. The layout was pretty straightforward. Certainly there were some good deals and reasonable regular prices on many items too. Plus, Hy-Vee has a lot better grocery variety then what you get at Target or Walmart superstores.
Some things I would like to see improved on are staff training, my checkout time took almost 30 minutes, with only two people ahead of me. It seemed like the cashiers were just thrown to the wolves in a way with a lot of them flagging down supervisors for questions. Also, I just bought those groceries, please don't just cram them in a bag like they're garbage. And it was a bit warm in there, maybe turn up the AC.

I've just completed a commissioned build of some retail park units using the Kingsway Models RPU kit. Using two kits has produced two half relief units and one full depth unit.
Each unit has two store fronts - this is the completed full depth unit.

WEEK 30 – Wolfchase Ollie’s, Set I
An overload of wall signs assaults us in this photo, a scene which – if they weren’t used to it already – local Ollie’s shoppers were quickly going to become familiar with XD There are so many of them to be found – not just in this shot, but in this store as a whole – that I doubt I’ll be spending much time describing all of them, so I want to go ahead and encourage you now to always zoom in to the pics in this album and read all of those signs, if you can. In typical Ollie’s fashion, they are littered with amusing(ly bad XD ) puns, so they’re worth it!

Not that I planned it this way, lol, but if my timing of posting S Perkins Kroger photos means the same as it did last year, then it's time for summer uploads to officially begin on my photostream! This year I'm kicking the season off with a special extended two-week photoset I've dubbed Retail Road Trip (hence the interstate off-ramp food sign in Hernando I'm using as the photo background here). Beginning tomorrow, we're taking a return visit to the script décor Kroger in Cleveland, MS, followed later in the week by the Kroger in Greenville, MS, as well as the Kmart in Greenville next week. I also have some blog posts planned to supplement this series, with one already up and another in the works for next week. Stick around!

This is an oddly designed K. It has a 90 degree angle at the entrance. The registers are from this view in the right hand portion of the store.
WEEK 22 – Clarksdale Kroger Closing, Set I
Here's a closer-up shot of the greenhouse itself, as we prepare to head inside in a moment or two. It's interesting – I don't think I've come across any two greenhouse Krogers with the exact same entryway setup! This store's entrance doors are located beneath the right side of the greenhouse; obviously, the left side is otherwise occupied, as you can tell from those white walls blocking off the space. A little bit later on, we'll see what it was being used for at the time, and also get an idea of its original purpose.

Behind the gate, a view of the unearthed former DEB store along the new corridor. I'm not sure when exactly this store closed, but it's strange to see that this store is still exposed. Looking towards the center and the fitting rooms.
WEEK 35 – Former Horn Lake Ryan's
Here's a shot of the Goodman Road-facing pylon sign, the likes of which Horn Lake and Olive Branch still allow, but Southaven and Hernando do not. I can go on a tangent about that, but suffice it to say that retailers that have existing pylon signs should be smart enough to keep them (stupid O'Charley's!), and those that don't will have to install nicer-looking (in my opinion, except for the one O'Charley's put up XD ) monument signs.

Fashion Square Shopping Center in Cherry Hill, NJ. This was built in the early 1980s over the site of an entertainment venue that was known at different times as The Ice House, Cherry Hill Arena and The Centrum. It was originally anchored by a smaller size Kmart, which later became a Super G Supermarket and then Shop Rite - which has since closed. That section still has the Super G facade.
