Eggs, butter, milk...a tattoo?
Shopping lists may never be the same if Whole Foods' vision for its new millennial-focused 365 grocery stores becomes a reality.
The trendy health food retailer announced on a website dedicated to its upcoming 365 by Whole Foods Market stores that it's seeking "friends" to set up shop in the three locations opening this year, with potential partner businesses including a tattoo parlor and record shop.

"Friends of 365 may be any type of business — from food and drinks to fashion, body care products, services, and more," the website says. "The more variety, the merrier!"
The 365 by Whole Foods Market chain, announced last year with an eye toward budget-conscious young shoppers, is based on Whole Foods' house brand, 365 Everyday Value, and will aim to "keep standards high and prices affordable."
