Re: Shari's takes over Cocos and Carrows

Coco's has two locations near me. One is right across the street from Disneyland and seems to be constantly busy (gee, I wonder why? :lol: $$$) The second location is a mile and a half away or so, but is located in a googie-style former Big Boy and has been the unfortunate subject of closure talks ...

Re: Supervalu to sell Shop 'n Save

The two Springfield, Illinois locations have Ocso pharmacies and interiors that resemble Colorful Lifestyle. One of them even has aisle signs that include street names. Here's a link. Springfield is a little confusing. Jewel Osco was there, but the 2 stores were briefly sold to Cerberus when Superv...

Re: Amazon Go

And here come the floodgates: https://komonews.com/news/business/plan-envisions-3000-cashier-less-amazon-go-stores-in-us-by-2021 Sources claim that Amazon is looking at opening as many as 3,000 Amazon Go stores across the country within the next three years. Somehow I can't see this ending well... ...

Re: Safeway remodel Tahoe City, CA 09/2018

How do I rotate photos? When you click the photo large it opens in the proper orientation. Are you uploading from Windows, or macOS, or something else? I see you took the photos with a Samsung Galaxy S5, I've had issues in the past with Windows not translating image rotation data correctly sometime...

Looks like they reopened. The store is now 32,000 square feet. I think it was larger before...?

Re: Shari's takes over Cocos and Carrows

This is an interesting development. Shari's seems to be hit or miss as of late with quality of food as well as prices. Although there are some well-run locations, I have been to a few that are not that great. Shari's seems to be moving away from their typical 6-sided buildings in not only their new...

Re: Supervalu to sell Shop 'n Save

I suspect Schnucks was the only interested buyer. It probably took this long because they were holding out hoping for other offers or offers for more stores... Closing pharmacy probably means the rest of the stores not sold to Schnucks will be closing. Curious wrinkle in the deal that Supervalu will...

Re: Raleys to buy 6 of 8 remaining Scolaris Stores

Seeing as how Scolari's has deleted the website, has ZERO stores with a bakery or deli (standard since before I was born), and can't even keep greeting cards in stock, I'm going to guess that they're planning to wind down business and close. Scolari's now offers donuts at its two remaining stores. ...

Re: Raleys to buy 6 of 8 remaining Scolaris Stores

Raleys is running some additional deep discount specials just at the 5 former Scolaris locations (2 in Reno, Fernley, Yerington, and Tonopah). It is pretty bad when you are the only grocery store for like a 1 hour radius (as is the case in Yerington and Tonopah) and you are having to put these store...
