All stock sold at the warehouse was obtained with a supplier's, allowance, a wholesale discount offered when the supplier is overstocked. Everything is a name brand item of a nationally recognized quality. Meats are USDA choice.

Poultry is grade A. But the warehouse obtained it via a market deal so its stock of grocery items may vary from week to week. Project manager Jim McGuire explained there were 12 brands of beer on. his shelves this week, but At Bob Evans Farms we believe in ours farm fresh, so you can fry it up farm, only one kind of sausage.

The prices, in some instances, are cheaper. Bacon that was selling for as much as $1.33 a pound in one Miami store was priced at 79 and 97 cents a pound at the A 16-ounce package of sliced American cheese was marked at $1.39. It sells for $159 and $1.69 elsewhere. A gallon of regional brand milk, priced at $2.09 and in most supermarkets, was marked at $1.86 at the warehouse. A six pack of beer, normally $215, was priced at $179.

Alsix pack 0 cola; was $1 59. Coffee was $2.69 in a one-pound can. The same brand in a conventional super- market was $2.83. A magnum of popular' chablis wine was $3.29. Cheese puffs with' the manufacturer's suggested price of 99 cents was marked 75 cents at the warehouse.

However, hot everything is a major bargain. Ground beef is $1.35 a pound, compared to $1 39 to $1 49 at area supermarkets. Whole chicken fryers are 47 cents a pound, compared to about 56 cents at supermarkets. William Louttjt, a Grand Union vice president, said the warehouse can goffer cheaper prices for three reasons. 1 t' First, the warehouse has a very limited variety of products.

The average American supermarket stocks up to 13,000 items on its shelves and in its cases. The warehouse has 3,200. The average supermarket has One of the revolutionary windi of change expected to soon blow through the supermarket industry across the country can be glimpsed in South Florida. A no-frills food warehouse has opened in the Broward County (own of Sunrise where consumer are promised they can, save up to 30 percent on their grocery bills if they are witling to sacrifice. What they have to sacrifice is tTxe key.

What many have grown to regard as necessities, the warehouse operators regard as extravagance. At the warehouse yon must bag your own groceries and either bring your own bags or pay two cents each, for them. You can't cash a check. The walls are covered with brown cardboard There are no tiles on the floor. Cigarettes are sold only by the carton.

Wines are sold only in magnum sizes. Milk is sold In gallon containers only Lunch meats are pre-sliced and sold in minimum sizes of a half pound. Store personnel will not break open packages into smaller portions. There is no piped-in music. And when you leave, after paying your hard-earned cash for the family's food, you' must carry or wheel your own groceries to the car No one will help you.

The sacrificing is brought home with the store's philosophy; "We are selling prices here, not services." The operation, called Basics Food Warehouse, is the result of 16 months of planning by the Grand Union supermarket chain. Other such food warehouses have opened in yOR WE PONT DO fl? supplier allowances may change, v- The second way it saves is by less expensive building costs and maintenance, Lout tit says. The building Is as plain as its name, a warehouse with boxes stacked high. Third, there is less labor involved, meaning the merchandisa requires less handling. The checkout line is operated by computer scanners that read the universal product code and compute the bill Hand computing by register is eliminated.

Employees busy restocking shelves and pricing items rather than bagging groceries 1 "The old mom and pop stores gave way to the supermarket in the 1950s. This is the next generation, the new way to sell food," Louttit observed. consumer who is looking for gourmet spices probably won't shop here."
