Area residents anticipate not having to be in the Quebec Soopers anymore, but more than anything, they are excited for the convenience of a <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/posts\/eastbridge-resident-changes-mind-on-soopers-after-needing-stick-of-butter-at-8pm\/\" target=\"_blank\">close grocery store<\/a>. \u201cI am so sick of coming home and realizing I forgot one item,\u201d said Eastbridge resident Greg Buchan. \u201cOf course, it ends up being a key item, and I need to get back in my car, park at Soopers and so on. Such a waste of 20 to 30 minutes.\u201d Other residents look forward to not having as much wasted food. \u201cInstead of worrying about shopping for a week or a month, I just need to worry about a couple of days,\u201d said Lisa Wilson. \u201cFood won\u2019t be wasted, and I won\u2019t have to worry if I got everything. Way less of a pain.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, the biggest struggle for Eastbridge residents appears to be what the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/posts\/king-soopers-acquiesces-eastbridge-store-will-not-have-parking-lot\/\" target=\"_blank\">parking<\/a> will be like at the new store. \u201cThey didn\u2019t build a lot of space for the lot,\u201d admits soon to be shopper Adam Davis. \u201cAnd I think people from many of the south side neighborhoods will start shopping here, so that lot could get pretty congested.\u201d However, what originally appeared to be a problem for area residents has turned in to a fun project for many. \u201cWe went online and bought a shopping cart,\u201d said Liz Vardaman. \u201cNow, we know we can walk whenever we want, take the cart in, and then take it right home.\u201d Several other residents in Eastbridge have followed suit. \u201cWe are customizing ours and having fun with it,\u201d said Karl Posekany. \u201cIt has been a pretty fun family project.\u201d Resident Brian Moses made his cart attachable to his bike. \u201cI can ride it right to the store, unclip the cart and shop, and ride it home,\u201d said Moses. So, when shopping at the new Soopers, keep an eye out for some interesting shopping carts.
