The former “As_oc_i_ted” at St. Johns and Underhill has now been transformed into a shiny new cornerstore called St. Johns Market. In the words of supreme_ian “let the reviews begin ….” Here are some excerpts from early critiques:
jarvis: “The place looks great and the selection is a lot bigger.. I also heard Sam say that they only have about 50% of the inventory in at this point. For the kinds of things I buy (veggie stuff, a lot of Amy’s and soy products, organic pasta etc..) it’s great. As for prices, it seems more expensive on certain items, and less on others.. hard to tell at this point. Definitely psyched!”
Underhill_MT: “Prices are good for most things (a box if macaroni is the same as the grocery store, same goes for canned beans), steep for others (our biodegradable dish detergent is $5 there, but $3.5 at Met). Store is great looking, can’t wait to go back when they’re fully stocked.”Â
So what’s the verdict? Sure it may no longer smell like cat piss, but is it everything you want your corner store to be?Â
