Just what grocery stores need:
Less Competition!
So in my area, I think it will result in more competition because the C&S brands are not common here or non existent, so a bunch of the Kroger stores (which is basically all of our traditional grocery stores currently, I'm not even sure there are Albertsons anywhere near) are going to be taken over by these "exotic" PigglyWigglies and such. I could be wrong because I don't really know who owns all of the brands.
Any Safeway stores? They're owned by Albertsons and are the majority of stores they're planning on selling if they're allowed to merge with Kroger.
Oh you're right, we do have a lot of Safeways. For some reason I thought they were Kroger. I guess that's the trade, then. I don't care for Safeway, so I'm still optimistic
