To all of the HEB shoppers who are mad that we are closed on Easter Sunday I have one thing to say.

Kiss my butt. We have closed every Easter every year since we were founded. We are allowed to have days. Yah I won’t get to see my mom, sister, grandma or others who don’t love with me but I’m going to love spending time with my son and wife. Hiding eggs, dying eggs, and eating a day ham and enjoying a stress free day.

So yah it’s a pandemic. It’s been going on for weeks. You don’t need to come here every day. Trust me it’s the same crap as the day before.

So please enjoy the day at home with your family. Call peiple you haven’t spoken to in a while. Download Skype, it’s fun I promise. And happy Easter. See you in the store Monday morning. Love you all.

HEB is going to have a fresh food markdown situation coming up soon.

We have ordered up plenty of product. Problem is alot of y’all stopped buying it in the amounts you were buying it because we started limiting you. Well the limits are lifted. But y’all never came back as hard as you were.

So now we are stuck with alot of product(mostly chicken) with shorter shelf life then we would like so to avoid any shrink situation we are going to start making stuff down.

I don’t know which locations have this going on and I’m not sure the exact start day but I know it will be soon.

I work for HEB and me and my manager were talking about it and I figured gotta tell people so we can sell as much product as possible. See y’all soon

Attention HEB shoppers(I need to get this off my chest)

I work at HEB. I’m one of their certified meat cutters. Have been for well over a decade. I’m 33 years old, married and have a 5 year old son. Sunday morning he woke me up and told me something that broke my heart. He told me he missed me. He missed me because I have been working 12+ hour shifts to keep up with the demand all yall keep putting on our staff. This is now day 5 of a weeks worth of customers coming in daily. I am well passed running on an empty tank. I’m to the point of I go home and shower (to avoid contaminating my family from the ones who come shopping not knowing they are sick) and then sit on the couch and pass out. I miss my son. I miss my wife. I miss my dogs, and a nice hot dinner. Please do me a favor. If you don’t need it don’t get it. Most of the things y’all are buying have a shelf life. Ground beef don’t last but a couple days. Steaks not much more. And the amount of produce peiple are buying is laughable. If worse come to worse and we are quarantined then most of the crap is going to go bad before you eat it.

So please. Be safe. Be courteous. Be mindful of the people wearing the red shirts and nametags. We are doing our best. We have our own families. We are just as worried as you. And we will be there to help you and get you what you need to take care of your own.

Thanks you for shopping at HEB. Now go home.
