Re: Sobeys to enter US, will buy 750 divested stores from Kroger/Albertsons
Just in case a non-regular reader stumbles into this thread (remember, this forum was once cited in a "news" article) - this is the APRIL FOOLS story for 2024.

Re: In & Out
Oregon is one of the least religious states in the country, and this email came from a political party message. I think it is similar to agreeing with what the other poster stated. It’s Easter - a day of celebration for many, whether secular or religious; a good day for contemplation of what good we...

Re: Meanwhile in Canada, they're building Malls
I haven't been in a Canadian mall for about a decade, but the last time I was in one in B.C., they continue to be more like our malls used to be - stores that sold a variety of things and would attract a variety of people to them. The Bay was kind of snoozy like Macy's but not terrible, (at that tim...

Picture Store Tour Hi Market Report Blog, as you seem to be on the other side of the country, here is a link to a LARGE Kroger-owned store built from the ground up w...

Re: Trader Joe's opening in northern Idaho
They seem to be moving toward larger, more standard sized stores---the new in downtown Bethesda replaced a very tiny store (even more crowded that GWU because of a more awkward floorplan) and seems to be the same size as the new one near Union Market and both are similar to the newish one (a replac...

Re: "Generic" Walgreens?
Until they built one of their own stores, a location in my hometown was a small store with basically a pharmacy counter after they bought out the independent that was located there. This looks a little bit like it may be a specialty pharmacy or really in a community where they want to keep the pharm...

Re: Trader Joe's opening in northern Idaho
For a company that seems to be expanding at a quicker rate lately, they sure do seem to have a problem with noticeably increased product recalls (as reported all over). From their September 7, 2018 podcast, they claim to be extra careful about any chance of recall, compared to their competition and...

Trader Joe's opening in northern Idaho
Eastern Idaho will probably never get their dream store due to logistics for trucking, they have no stores in Montana, Wyoming, or the Dakotas too. A store is opening in a (still operational for now it seems) furniture store, which was at one point a "discount store," according to county p...

Trader Joe's adding another Salt Lake City, UT store
At first I thought a former Pep Boy's Auto would be too small, but in Utah they cannot sell wine (or hard liquor) or any beers stronger than a certain ABV so that opens up a bit more space. Great parking lot choice (lots of space) and visibility/access for this location. Unlike most others, this one...
