Re: Kroger to merge with Albertsons?
Here's the real question that nobody is willing to ask - it's very easy to determine when you just pull public company balance sheets which are public documents - HOW MUCH IS THE AMERICAN CONSUMER PAYING EACH MONTH IN CORPORATE DEBT SERVICING COSTS? I'll bet we are all paying more in debt service c...

Re: Kroger to merge with Albertsons?
BAD BAD BAD BAD So glad that the possibility of Albertson's buying Price Chopper a few years back NEVER got past the talking stages. And yes with interest rates on the way up not exactly the smartest thing for Kroger to be doing putting all of that debt on their books.

And that massive behemoth Acme Markets comes in at number five here in the Empire State with a whopping presence of 16 locations. What a juggernaut they are.

Re: Big Lots Opens Disney Toy Shops In All Stores
My question is why the limited run? Logically, you would think they'd run these through the Christmas season.

Re: Walmart observations
They do collect a bag fee now and from what I was told it's going to be NO BAGS and you need to bring your own reusable ones and the only ones they will have for purchase are the heavier canvas and or cloth bags.

She was shopping at a local Wal-Mart sometime this week and was told by the cashier that starting Oct. 1st., they are totally doing away with bags and you'll have to bring your own reusable bags...

Re: Albertsons 100% self-checkout pilot program at two locations
