Retail Watchers

Again, though, these lists tend to be a few years out of date, and I don't appreciate you calling me a liar because you undershot the number of Vons stores in 1997 by over 100. But I digress. In terms of the merger, with C&S getting the rights to the Albertsons name in a few parts of the country...

Who compiled the list? It was the LECs (Local Exchange Carriers)for the phone companies. Remember the Safeway SoCal division, at the end, included SanDiego, Las Vegas, and the entire central valley and coast of California. If you are suggesting the list I provided is wrong I have the initial list f...
