We don't have Kroger in this area and haven't for lots of years. I wish we did - I always shooped there when they were in this area. I think the unions ran them out because of higher wages, Etc. I am getting fed up with Wally World, seems since they are building all these new Super Centers, everyday and all practical items are going up almost every week. Local grocery stores are high priced also and have always been. I don't know where it will go or when it will stop. I bought a Fiskars large size mat 14-15 years ago and it has cut lines in it but has not peeled. I use it all the time.
