The Holtgrieves, Dave and Paulette of Charlotte Park, are bargain shoppers and they take delight in finding a new deal. It could be food, or fun or furniture. They know how to do it, and they do it well.
In this occasional series (when they find something they like, they’ll let us know), we focus on a nearby grocery store that has re-opened its doors after a somewhat brief hiatus: Earth Fare on Monticello.
In February, 2020, the chain, which started in Asheville, N.C., announced it was closing its doors after 45 years. Known for their natural and organic offerings, it seemed like their absence would open a huge hole in the Midtown Row shopping center. But not long after declaring bankruptcy, Dennis Hulsing purchased the company and re-opened some of the stores, including Williamsburg.
There are some great deals to be had at this store, we’ll run down a couple of them:
Monday -- $6 for a Non-GMO fresh-roasted chicken, and fresh-baked baguettes, 2 for $3
Thursday – 4-ounce super-lump crab cakes, 2 for $10
Friday – 16-inch, take-and-bake pizzas, your choice of veggie, pepperoni or cheese, $7
