I wonder if the strike last April, where you were proud your "brothers and sisters" told potential customers to go away for a few weeks had any impact Mr. Melia? Hmmm.

Market Basket is really putting the squeeze on the other grocery chains in New England. Better fresh produce, better bakery items, better selection of other groceries, and nicer stores (mostly). I’m not surprised that Stop and Shop is feeling the heat.

Being it’s Brockton, I’d say that they probably had higher than average cases of shoplifting at the store.

Around here stores are closing in the higher crime neighborhoods, then we hear the community “leaders” and media bleat about how it’s “unfair” to the community, blah, blah, blah.

They could revive A&P and merge with it

Stop & P

Plus Market Basket (a local MA chain) and Shaw's (now owned by Albertson's) are kicking Stop & Shop on prices every day of the week.

I only go to Shaw's when I need something immediately...since it is a mile away from me. And Stop & Pee? Never. Too danged expensive.
