Ruston Eating Places

[nadB]

So don't laugh if I'm way off base here, but are you talking about the bread place? You get your game ticket punched? So what do you get after so many punches? Never heard of such, but I don't go there if that's what you're talking about now that they moved to their present location. Never down that way.

Why, yes; I'm talking about the Mrs. Baird's Bakery Outlet Store, o.c. -- one of the best little "hidden gems" in Ruston.

I eat a slice of their delicious whole wheat bread (toasted, & slathered with honey and cinnamon) every morning for breakfast with my double espresso. That bread costs just $1.15 per loaf, compared to generally =/> $3.34 at most grocery stores, incl. Walmart. Either that, or I have one of their delicious whole wheat English Muffins (toasted and slathered the same) for breakfast. Great Low Prices; plus, if you spend $6.00 or more when you checkout, you get your choice off the "freebie" rack. Plus, the manager will often stick a free snack cake in with your purchases. Plus, you get a Bakery Outlet Card on which they punch out how much you have purchased. When total purchases reach $30.00, you earn a FREE loaf of bread and a FREE snack cake. WOW, what a deal !

Plus, there is always lots of Bimbo stuff there. (I'm guessing that's because Bimbo Bakeries owns Mrs. Baird's ??)
