Guest guest Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 Thanks Susie! And you are absolutely correct. many of the foods that I was sampling on " Organic Day " were labeled " Central Market " . I am encouraged by the fact that HEB thinks this is a good marketing strategy. It makes me think there are consumers out here that care about this kind of thing!!!

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 Okay, that makes sense. Thanks. I can see why people prefer to call it the HEB instead of The Butt Store. *lol* ~ PT ~ The three supporters of inspiration: success, acquaintance, praise. ~ Welsh triad [trans.

Guest guest Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 Yeah--the name lends itself, doesn't it? When the boys were tiny, one of them came up with H E BB's (as in a bb gun)---and then it kind of naturally led to calling it the " he-be-jebies " . Now it's just " work " ! Both of my sons work there, and it's a great place for them. Very amenable to kids who work there going to school. The schedules are extremely flexible, and my oldest is now able to transfer to another town where he's going to college this fall and continue to work a few hours. Paula P.S.
