Re: Albertsons/Vons/Pavilions Cutting Store Hours
Looks like effective last Monday, most Albertsons/Vons/Pavilions will be open 6AM - 10PM. Previously, these stores were open until 11PM and some opened at 5AM. Prior to the pandemic, many were open until 12AM-2AM. It’s only been recently that some locations near Los Angeles saw their hours expanded...

Re: Walgreens names new CEO
Yes it is the only one. Maybe Walgreens intends to open more of them. "Be Well" was Walgreens slogan for a number of years as I recall pre-Boots. Or possibly right after Boots. That's true. However, the "Be Well" that is renting space from Walgreens is part of Be Well Family Car...

Re: Walgreens names new CEO
Walgreens has been closing down the Village Medical sites in several markets-mainly in Florida. These are the clinics that were built on existing Walgreens sites-cutting the size of the Walgreens store in half. With Village Medical gone, what do they do with the now empty space? Here in Phoenix, th...

Re: ALDI to acquire Winn-Dixie
That is my impression. The first time I went into one of these decades ago I was blown away by how cheap everything was. Compared to other stores it almost felt like free food. And the quality was above average for generics. The store was orderly and spartan. NOW- the price gap between them and oth...

Re: Eddie Bauer dumbs down logo for GenZ
They use a multitude of logos. They have never used just one. Similar to Target when you think about it and how they use the bullseye and lettering in many different ways. I do not understand why this got any hype as there was no indication that they were eliminating the original. Eddie Bauer has u...

Re: Gelsons Laguna Beach closing
I don't get why S&F is there, either. Should have been sold to Gelson's or Lazy Acres or anyone else, really. Even a Ralphs-ette like the one in Point Loma would have been good. ... The other issue is Smart & Final isn't really even any deal... Vons would be a better deal a lot of the time.....

Re: Gelsons Laguna Beach closing
...Coronado was also really nicely remodeled by Supervalu (a shame that is a Smart & Final now... wonder how that survives)... My guess is that three things factor into S&F's success in Coronado: 1) People commuting from the naval base to other parts of metro San Diego, 2) Tourists who want...

Re: Knott's Berry Farm jams discontinued
Anymore I buy either the Whole Foods or Signature Select fruit spread. It is every bit as good (sometimes even better than) as the name-brands, which tend to have limited offerings of anything other than jellies and jams. If enough people do the same as me (and I suspect they do, given the amount of...

Re: Eddie Bauer dumbs down logo for GenZ
When they changed out the 1970's - 2000's logo for a slightly different script logo (which was changed back) merchandise carried the old logo for a couple of years. Maybe they bought labels in bulk and want to use 'em up.
