The former Albertsons in Visalia may still have it. Cheaper version then Hayward, Concord, and Pleasant Hill as it was a 2005 build.

Re: Hy-Vee buying Strack & Van Til

It was a big deal when local ownership outbid Jewel for the stores (the main issue was overlap), but then they decide to sell out anyway, this time to Hy-Vee? Hy Vee might actually be a better fit than Jewel. I like Jewel but the further you get from Chicago the worse it seems to perform and the mo...

Re: Burlington closing Carson City, NV location

Hobby Lobby will do great in this location.

It will probably be the end for the Jo Ann in Carson though. And I'm not sure if the Michaels will survive either in their current location. Maybe they could try to relocate.

Re: Rite Aid closing at least 63 stores

Thrifty Payless was actually quite profitable. While it didn't have as good of performance as the old Longs chain did, it was absolutely profitable. However Rite Aid quickly made a lot of changes that definitely hurt the store performance some of which was quickly retracted when Bob Miller arrived a...

Re: Aldi lists job openings at multiple warehouses and nearly 30 stores in Northern California

They're scamming employers by cold contacting with "potential recruits" too. Ton of employment scams out there on all angles. I guess Aldi can do okay with an expansion into NorCal but I really dislike their poorly run and poorly stocked CA Stores. They should quit trying to have larger st...

Re: Save Mart

The three unremodeled Nevada stores are definitely the bottom 3 performing stores under the Save Mart banner of the Nevada group. I'm not sure where the two NV Food Maxx units fit on the bottom performing list though. Pretty sure they did remodel Rocklin. The later cheaper remodels haven't aged part...

Re: 99 CENT ONLY closing

No additional discounts here. The Lake Forest locations were pretty much cleaned out last weekend. Foothilsl Ranch doesn’t even look like it’s going out of business. Still had most produce, all marked 50% off. It looks like you have to find an April closing store to get the additional discounts. No...

Just sit back and watch their mix expansion and price changes play out...
