Around here Shaw's is the smaller of the markets. All we have left are
Stop & Shop and now Whole Foods.
Shaw's is odd with prices. They actually put things on sale that I'd
use, as opposed to Stop & Shop where they put things on sale that are
way out in left field.
Most of their prices are fairly decent. So I suppose once Albertsons
takes it over I can expect prices to go up. Great.
