A large crowd gathered before dawn to witness the grand opening of a 18,000-square-foot H-E-B in McKinney, Texas — the third of four to open in the area.
Prizes were given to shoppers who waited in the early morning hours, including $25 gift cards and a $100 gift basket.

The new McKinney store includes a True Texas BBQ, where shoppers can order BBQ by the plate or pound with additional sides. The store will also have curbside grocery pickup as well as home delivery, and a fuel station with a car wash.
Check out the video of the store’s official launch courtesy of local news group WFAA.
