I cannot imagine how that store is going to handle the summer without Hunter's. Can you, APS?

It's also not as good a store as Hunters. Plenty of folks to the north will go to Heath's, many to the south will go to Hanford's

But if you just need a couple of things, you hate to take the time to go there. And when the summer people all get here, I think a lot of them will got there for convenience.

I think a lot of folks will take the 35 minute drive down to the Market Basket located on Route 11 in Rochester.

Once you shop at a Market Basket you'll never return to Harvest Market (or Hunters when they reopen). The selection and prices can not be beat at Market Basket.

I've always viewed Hunters and Harvest Market as Wolfeboro biggest Convenience Stores because you really pay a lot for anything there (it is very convenient though).

True, but it spoils most of a half day to go down there. And lately we don't seem to be very efficient, we're always running out of something. I think I would spend my life going to Rochester.

Where did the Hunter's employees go?
It seems they may be trying to lure some of them in.

I think only one went to Harvest. I heard that Hunter's had insurance so that they are being paid until it is rebuilt which is nice for them, so I hope it's true.
