This place feels oppressively dystopian and they have got to be analyzing every move you make for marketing research purposes. However, I'm willing to deal with all of that if there are good deals to be had. Does anyone have experience shopping here? Anything worth looking out for?

>salad bar priced per container
If it’s not by weight you’d never have to pay full price for pricier things like bacon bite ever again. Just takeout box full of olives.
Also this might be good if you are doing a stir fry at home, just pile it up with chopped onions and peppers and shrooms and save the hassle of buying them all separately and chopping them up

You can tell them you aren't showing ID. You do not legally have to show them ID. They will still come to your house and give you food. You are paying for the service.

every nigga on welfare has to bring his id to get his benefits or buy his smokes/papers/booze. the idea that 'people of color dont have id' is an utterly retarded nonsense arguement that was never true and only works on middle and upper class goyim that have no idea how the lower class lives.

they will happily force you to have an id to prove yourself to get goyslop but then pretend nobody has ids when it comes time to vote in rigged elections.

I'm somewhat amazed people haven't been aware of this.
Revlon started actively tracking people in stores since 1998 I think? They seem to have scrubbed it from searches on the clearnet.

>extra barrier
It's not. Democrats prove this shit in their blue states with all the extra licensing required for guns, and that is a constitutional right as well. Those IDs have fees too, by the way, very LARGE fees. Dems suddenly shut about all those imaginary barriers when they are the ones passing the laws that prevent your constitutional rights. So it is perfectly legal and constitutional to require voter ID, as SCOTUS has not overturned those gun licensing ID requirements yet, and it would go a long way to shutting people up on election fraud.

Interesting.
Did you know that Democrats created the Ku Klux Klan and they had similar opinions about Black People of Color?
It's probably not a coincidence that during the race riots the Democrats tried to destroy as many KKK relics as possible, so as to hide the evidence of their crimes as they helped Black People of Color burn, loot, and murder. Why?
I don't know. I just figured they were severely mentally ill.

You've never been on welfare and it shows.
You don't need ID beyond an EBT card, which doesn't work for voting(It also doesn't work on cigarettes or booze lmao). But they're FREE. Because anything else is a poll tax, something conservatives lie about giving a fuck over.
