Re: Walmart observations

I am pretty sure we used Questmark for Fresh & Easy.

I watched them lay the floor out from scratch at the Palm Springs store.

Re: Kroger to merge with Albertsons?

Rebranding to Save Mart will probably not go well, as the name is mostly unheard of outside the central valley, and sounds like a budget name. To someone who isn't familiar with the company, Food Maxx should be the conventional stores and Save Mart should be the discount stores. If they need a bann...

Re: Kroger to merge with Albertsons?

I concur with Clown! If any of this goes through (I hope it does not because historically, all promises are lies), I believe the Lucky name is the best bet. These purported "geniuses" at Save Mart should ditch that awful name and fly with Lucky. If these chiefs are so good they can serousl...

Re: Kroger to merge with Albertsons?

A Chicago friend moved to Florida a few years ago and shops almost exclusively at Publix. Her reasons for doing so are convenience, lack of alternatives (a neglected Winn-Dixie across the street from Publix and a Walmart neighborhood Market whose parking lot is hard to get in and out of), and their...

Re: Kroger to merge with Albertsons?

Yep, you are both spot on about Publix. Their ideology and hubris will never allow them to get involved in a Union environment or be bought out. The DNA of this company is JENKINS (related or not) and it will remain so. They are not innovators, plus it is the Publix way or get lost. IMO, their cult...

Re: A deeper look into dollar stores....

Deja vu... it's almost as if they took a video recorded 20 years ago and replaced "Walmart" with "dollar stores." Consider a family hasn't seen their real household income grow in three years but has seen their expenses swell. Because of inflation, their local independent grocer...
