New McKay's...

...not looking so good.

I stopped by tonight to pick up a couple things, shelves are looking over half empty.

Looks like hours of operation are being cut, too.

 

[TPD]

they are closing that store. so I've heard.

 

[DoWhat]

Is this the old Shoppers?

Is this the old Shoppers?

Yes. At least that is the location I am talking about.

So what are they doing wrong? I know the GMR location had a lot of theft, that's why they closed up the one side.

My vote is on apathy, if I saw something moldy or spoiled on the shelf I would take it to the service desk and they would give me the look like what are they supposed to do with it.

Used to see that same problem with the one on GMR years ago.

If I may ...

Maybe McKay finds it more lucrative running his newspapers instead?

Or some other kind of printing press.

This was the one on GMR I was talking about. It's a shame that was a good store at one point.

Must have got a good tax write-off for the money they spent to renovate.

I stopped in thee a few weeks ago because they had a few great deals advertised. I could not find any of the things listed in the flyer, so I asked an employee. She said something to the effect that while they had the same name, they were not the same as the other stores. That made no sense and that's not what the flyer indicates.

I think the problem with that locations is that the store can't be seen from the road, therefore it doesn't exist. Any time I went in there for the past several years it was always nearly void of any people.

I've been stopping in there, as well as when it was Shopper's, as the wife and I have a PO Box at the California Post Office.

Maybe Aldi's will see a chance to open a Super Aldi's.

Aldi's is currently expanding.

I haven't shopped at this McKay's, but my sister said it's expensive.

My daughter shopped there quite often. She likes to experiment with her cooking and she said they had some higher end and hard to find ingredients. I still haven't been into Aldi's or Harris Teeter, even though they're basically on my way home from work.

Shopped where?

I primarily do my shopping at Aldi's. If they don't have something I need, I head over to Giant.

Aldi's is good when you have no clue what you want, but know you want something. And they have good prices on milk/cheese/bacon.

I'm sorry, McKay's in San Souci(?).

Satan's Food Warehouse was my go to prior to Aldi.

Navy Federal is the only place down that way that I ever visit. I really couldn't tell you what businesses are down there any more.
