Michael Teel returns to Raleys
What do we think of this? He left abruptly in 2002 after the failed Las Vegas expansion and all was quiet about him until last year when it came known that he and some investors were trying to displace Corti Brothers in Sacramento. Now he has back to Raleys. I think the grocery environment has gotte...

Re: Save Mart (Stockton) Fire
It sounds like the store had a leased bakery and pharmacy if I read the article right. I've driven by this store and it is really a nasty area but the store looked like quite a throwback. I was never quite courageous enough to go in. Frankly I wasn't even tempted.

Re: biggs reduces store hours--ominous sign?
Supervalu is just in trouble. They need to cut costs wherever they can. There are a lot of mixed feelings on whether or not a 24hour grocery operation is a good thing or a bad thing, especially in stores that do little business during the overnight hours. One thought is that since you usually have e...

Smart & Final Extra Closed Brentwood
Closing a new store after less than a year? http://www.insidebayarea.com/business/ci_14088630
Maybe because this format is not very good, prices are not good, and produce quality is awful. I question how long the Reno one will last.

Re: Ralphs Up while Albertsons Down (market share)
I think a lot more Save Mart operations lost their in - store banking operations as Bank of America pulled from many of their in store branches in recent months. This can hurt store traffic too. There is a Scolaris I frequently go into simply because there is a Wells Fargo ATM and Branch inside. If ...

Re: Fred Meyer selling gift cards for competitors?
Don't even get me started about what I think of Fred Meyer selling gift cards for various of its competition: Kohls, Sears, Best Buy, Macys, Home Depot, and the list goes on and on. Lots of restaurant gift cards too. I wonder if Fred Meyer was doing the buy $100 of gift cards receive $10 off instant...

Re: Albertsons Exiting Utah
This article is incorrect on the store counts. Supervalu had six stores for sale: These stores were excluded from the sale to Associated from the start: Orem: 2 stores West Jordan: 2 stores These additional stores were excluded from the sale when it closed: Tooele: 1 store due to FTC concern Taylors...

Rite Aid Ogden Utah
The Rite Aid on Harrisville in Ogden looks to be a former Skaggs that has been pretty much undecorated and possibly repainted inside. The only department sign is over the pharmacy. The only other wall letters are some thank you letters hanging over the front. The store has a register 1, a register 3...

Re: Albertsons Exiting Utah
I don't see much of a future for these Albertsons Stores being run by Supervalu. What I keep seeing in these SuperValu run stores in market after market just keeps me shaking my head. The lack of customers is most telling, along with the lack of perishable product on displays within the stores aroun...
