Re: Coke For Passover -- Shortage?

Gelson's is kind of far to travel. My local Ralph's Fresh Fare has had Coke for Passover on and off.

If the proposed agreement is accepted by the voting members, how many and what locations will the grocers close to "pay" for the deal? Will the grocers use the reason that those locations have gone "negative" due to the higher cost of operations - labor costs included? Kroger's ...
