Re: Stop & Shop closures
We don't have any information on Stop & Shop's profits. The closest we know of is $11.17 billion from twenty years ago, but so much of the industry has changed since then. If Stop & Shop has been losing money it's been covered up by Royal Ahold/Ahold Delhaize and the cracks are showing now....

Re: Best Buy not satisfied with big earnings, more layoffs and closures
TVs are a commodity item at this point. The majority does not buy high end OLED or mini-LED sets. They want the largest screen size for a low price. Bonus if you get an extended warranty like Costco does. Many people buy their phones from the carrier to get the deal of the month - free upgrade, free...

Re: Stop & Shop closures
@marketreportblog Based on your descriptions of the stores, it seems that Stop and Shop went all in on large stores in the early 2000s. Other than the stores that are former Edwards locations, how many of these massive stores are built off the Super Stop and Shop model? My understanding is that mod...

Re: Stop & Shop closures
Bi-Lo was dire. No other word for that chain. Also someone mentioned up thread somewhere about pharmacies being closed in Stop & Shop Stores in some cases. What is that all about. Does Ahold have a tract record of random pharmacy closures too? Albertsons/Safeway have ZERO tract record of pharma...

Re: Stop & Shop closures
Could they just rebrand some of these to Giant-PA format? Ahold could got back to using the Edwards format that they had gotten in the their acquisition of First National Stores. Some number of the current North Jersey Stop and Shop stores were Edwards locations managed under Giant-PA. The current ...

Re: Stop & Shop closures
So here's my best estimates, judging by online photos for the stores I haven't been to. I don't have names for most of the decor packages, but here's the list: Total stores in NJ: 56 White : 12 Wood Fruitbowl : 3 Backlit Fruitbowl : 6 Yellow & Purple : 21 Taste & Time : 6 Super Stop & S...

At this point that decor is 20 y...

Re: Stop & Shop closures
I'm surprised that they're closing Spout Run. It received a major remodel not that long ago and has been quite busy the few times I've been there. It's in a well-off part of Arlington and has no nearby competition. Getting from there to Virginia Square (the nearest store) isn't exactly a pleasure. ...

Re: Stop & Shop closures
I have traveled fairly extensively in North Jersey and NYC visiting relatives. The Stop and Shop stores I visited in these areas just seemed very blah and not very busy as you noted on the stores you visited. Many of the stores seem to be stuck on the yellow walls and purple letters decor package. F...

Re: Digital Coupons
Does Raley's clearly explain in their ads that you the sale item is digital only and you have to activate the offer in the app? I don't know what it is like out west but the Safeway and Giant-MD ads here in the east make it clear that on offer is digital only and you have to activate on the app or t...
