Re: New Albertsons Interior Southern California

So the Unions now allow 3 hour shifts? That's weird and plainly WRONG! I was shocked when I first heard it directly from an Albertsons employee standing next to me and talking to a cashier (who was totally ignoring me the customer as he rang up my transaction) that they were scheduled by "the ...

Re: Official: Red Lobster files Chapter 11

I am not surprised about Outback-Carrabba's closing locations.

My son worked for both as a Chef. Total nightmare!

Re: Target Lowers Prices on 5,000 Items for the Summer

In my area I have never received any push back for a price match with Target.

Re: Alternative Retail

The problem with many stores in today's outlet malls is that they are often just a regular store with the word "outlet" slapped on the outside with no difference in pricing or quality. Once they lose the concept of "outlet" people shop elsewhere. No. They're a store with cheaper...

Re: Cracker Barrel Price, Menu, Store Size Changes Coming

Given their history of scandals and dated not so healthful food, I would love them to just disappear. Sounds like a typical chain business; scandals and controversial quality of products. No different than Denny's in the early 90's. Depends on the scandal and if that "scandal" is typical ...

Re: 99 CENT ONLY closing

Dollar Tree is trying to purchase 58 leases. 37 in CA. Includes Reno and Carson City in my area. Dollar Tree can't run the stores they have here, don't know why they think it is a good idea to add any more. Terrible operator. Ugh. Couldn't it be something better- anything better? Seems there is alw...

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

I can only report what I see around me, however myopic it may be.

Since I do not travel pass a certain radius for food purchasing I understand my perspective is quite narrow.
