One man said the grocer was the only storekeeper that had ever trusted him for anything.

"There goes the proudest boy in the United States," said the grocer.

Whole Foods spokesman Michael Silverman said the grocer is committed to providing "transparent, accurate pricing" to customers.

"I can never thank you and your sister sufficiently," said the grocer.

"I rather think I have," said the grocer, looking around him triumphantly.

"Very good, sir; thank you, sir," said the grocer with animation.

"We have got ourselves into a difficult position," said the Grocer.

"It ain't all right in this store," said the grocer, sternly.

"I do," said the grocer, to whom Paulette Dubois had told her story.

Nevertheless, Safeway CEO Burd said the grocer is seeing "a continued uptick in the Starbucks business" in its stores.

"I will break him of that trick," said the grocer.

"Never mind that, now," said the grocer, pushing it back.

"Here's a lad who plays tricks with other folks' money," said the grocer excitedly.

"No," said the grocer, without hesitation, "we don't stock it."

"Thank goodness!" said the grocer, "we don't have these snide affairs in our line."

So instead of spending once or twice a month you can spend 1,000 times, said the grocer.
