This may be the only time you'll ever see me bash Meijer. When I went to the closest one to me in Southgate, their calendar area did not have the 2015 Mixels Wall Calendar at all, plus, I'm not bothering to drive out to my other closest stores in Taylor, Lincoln Park, Woodhaven or Allen Park to see if they have it, though I doubt they may have it either anyway. I ended up ordering it from Amazon.

Decided to walk into the Lincoln Park, Michigan Meijer on Wednesday. The produce area had floors that were dirty (plus the tiles are likely left over from when it was a Super Kmart) and I believe there was a slight but musty smell there too. The electronics area was well devoid of at least people, there was even no one at the photo desk.

Meijer has been bashed by other Wisconsin supermarkets for their low prices.

All of these bizjournal publications are the same. 

A bunch of supposed "entrepreneurs" or CEOs whining that the competition is
too tough.  Or that government is not doing enough to help them.
