Re: Grocery Outlet Mid-Atlantic Expansion
I do wonder how Grocery Outlet can pull such an expansion so far from home and in strong Aldi/Lidl territory, though I wish them good luck. Lidl is under construction in Centreville, VA. The new Hyattsville store was a PriceRite and before that a longstanding Giant, of which Queen Elizabeth II visit...

Re: Crucial times for Shoppers
Looks like three out of the four Shoppers opened within the past year are already closing; all within St. Mary's County.

Re: Sheetz eliminating soft serve machines in stores
Sad news, I always liked getting ice cream from those. Now what is the reason as to this phase-out? Cost may not be as likely since another prepared foods machine (popcorn) is slated to replace soft-serve ice cream, it's not like those are being converted to more product displays or pickup lockers ...

Maverik and Circle K have stores there, plus a bunch of independently owned 7-11s and AMPMs What a funny name for a competitor. Also...

Re: CVS pulling out of Puerto Rico (22 stores)
Going to be tricky for Target, if they ever choose to set up operations there.
Not all of them are? Wonder if that varies between neighborhood and tourist areas
