Re: Target Rolls 10 item "Express Self Checkout" Nationwide
Both super locations I've visited are fully closed SCO on the grocery side, and one installed all the new express signage on the grocery side. Exact opposite of the alleged direction here. I wonder why they'd be doing the opposite of what the directions say. It seems pretty clear. Lack of disciplin...

Re: Ralphs Fresh Fare Santa Barbara remodel
Is it staying a Fresh Fare?
I'm not sure how well this store actually does.

Re: Albertsons/Vons/Pavilions Cutting Store Hours
This is likely another push from Apollo to lower costs. They do this at other retailers they invest in. They have a consultant (AlixPartners or Accenture) who runs sales per hour studies and change all the hours using an algorithm. Usually what happens is they discover later that a competitor will ...

Re: 🛒 Kroger-Albertsons Merger: National Impact
At this point they've said they will fight the FTC... so they will just have to keep fighting I guess. Obviously there are other acquisition opportunities out there that both parties are missing, due to this uncertainty. Ahold minus Food Lion would have been a far better merger partner for Kroger th...

Re: Stop & Shop closures
One comment told me in no uncertain terms that this is nothing but normal resetting and stocking. Sounds like someone's trying to save face. I enjoyed that comment- they mention there are "people shopping in the stores" causing the empty shelves. Looking around I don't see many shoppers. ...

Re: Smiths Remodel-Carson City, NV
Smiths has started remodeling in Carson City, NV. So far they are off to a bang. They seem to be keeping the old tan/brown shelves from when the store opened. In the late 1980's. I really hate the way those shelves look. They should all be replaced. The Sparks Smiths had a lot of those until its la...

Re: JoAnn-"restructuring"
Is it possible they've already closed the stores they want to close and they can quickly just cancel the leases this week and move on?
Otherwise I cannot imagine a retailer not closing stores to get out of unproductive stores during Chapter 11.

Re: Target Rolls 10 item "Express Self Checkout" Nationwide
Someone posted the actual policy. This policy will not fully apply to "two door" Target formats if they have self checkouts on the grocery side. So that will mean most of the (former) Target Greatland units and all of the Super Target units will not have "express self checkout" ...

Re: Albertsons/Vons/Pavilions Cutting Store Hours
No change in Bishop and Mammoth Lakes. Bishop still closes at 11 PM, and Mammoth Lakes is still open 24 hours.
Also both Ridgecrest stores are still open until 11 PM.
