Speaking of Kroger's, where he and his wife used to live, we could readily find plonk (cheap table wine) for $2-$3 a bottle at the local Kroger's -- something cherished by those of us in the Philistine Liberation Organization. Now that they live in the suburbs, the cheapest wine we could find a the local Kroger's was $5.99/bottle. I will refrain from making comments about suburban snobs who fail to understand the pleasures of drinking plonk while sitting on the catwalks of water towers. At the same time I fully understand the marketing decisions made by Kroger's.
