Today's competitive grocery retail environment has driven retailers to utilize technology as a key customer service advantage for their shoppers. Giant understands that their customers lead busy lives and they want to make it easier and more convenient to shop in their stores.

We're trying to monitor this as much as we can. It's always difficult, because we don't know if a big anti-union company is going to buy these stores. We will put pressure on whomever ends up buying them. It's an unfortunate fact in the grocery business that things are in flux.

We think that Fields Corner deserves more than the low-quality grocery store that Midland has a reputation for and proved itself to be.

There are a large number of advantages to the system. You get a lot of shrimp from a small space, you're able to offer a truly fresh product you can't generally get in a grocery store, and there are very little problems with disease because its a bio-secure facility.

Even though Albertson's down and the index is down from the 52-week high. Year to date, both the grocery industry and the drugstore industry are actually up. Year to date the grocery industry is up 9 percent and the drugstore industry is up about 12 percent and we've been seeing a lot of fear in the marketplace concerning interest rates and impact this will have on consumer spending. Consequently, there's been a lot of money that's been moving over to some of the staple companies like grocery chains and drugstore retailers.

Everyone would like the old-school approach to meeting someone, but it just doesn't happen that way anymore. I'd like to think I'm going to meet someone in the grocery store or at church, but these days life is a little more challenging.

It's the most direct stimulus you can get in the economy during these tough times.

Discount Grocery is so great for our situation.

I sell things that are not usually found in grocery stores.

I've been reading comics since I was four. I used to get them when I would go grocery shopping with my mom. I remember getting the digest versions of old DC comics. The one that I remember reading first was Paul Levitz' 'Justice Society of America' stuff that he was doing in the '70s.

Things that we never even think twice about going to our kitchen or down to the grocery store to get, that was wiped out in just a blink of an eye, and we felt the need to step in and do what we could.

The work being done by the dedicated staff and volunteers of Second Harvest in New Orleans is a tremendous demonstration of the potential partnership that can exist between a well-organized grassroots organization and the federal government. Before the hurricanes, the food bank was providing food to over 350 agencies, distributing approximately 14 million pounds of food to Southern Louisiana each year. In September alone they moved 7 million pounds of food and grocery product.

I wanted the attention I missed at home, so I became the leader of a gang. That way, I got attention and was recognized as being important.

During the Eighties, when I was hurting for money, I thought, 'Hang on a minute - I can paint.' I was living in New York and I thought it would get the grocery money coming in, and it escalated from there.

An inadequate energy supply will increase the cost of doing business for every company in America, ...

Anything you see on the cover of magazines at the grocery store checkout line is fair game for our NEW news format. Including aliens.

Albertson's is truly a value stock, the third-largest grocery chain, with a very stable predictable business with 29 years of higher earnings.

This is not a grocery story or a place to stop once a week and pick up a few aspirin, six pounds of hamburger and some frozen food. Public markets are really about impulse purchases.

That's what happens.

Americans have a right to know what's in their food, and posting warning signs in grocery stores where these fish are sold is a simple, common-sense solution that fulfills that right.

There was a time in L.A. when I drove to 7-Eleven to go grocery shopping, and I locked my keys in my car, which wasn't insured.

There were a number of older grocers serving that trade area. But we saw a need for a first-quality grocery store.

The report confirms that Minnesota's approach to liquor regulation is outdated and unfairly benefits liquor wholesalers and retailers at the expense of consumers.

This report will provide a strong foundation for adopting a more consumer-friendly approach to alcohol sales in Minnesota, such as Wine With Dinner.

There's also a grocery store in MarketPlace that lets us buy fresh fruit and gallons of juice on a meal plan,

It's a bit weird, because I don't really know what people expect or think being political is; I just don't get it. What am I supposed to do as a pop star-stroke-revolutionary? Get up and put my balaclava on, go to the grocery store and then invent some Google viruses, and then go to rob a bank to fund my revolution on YouTube?

It's a great battle, and it really is a battle, and there are people from all walks of life, you know, never judge anybody at the table: A man can be the greatest poker player and he might know all the numbers, but he might get beaten by a really savvy kid who works in a grocery store; and that's what's so great about this game.

It's not just for theater audiences, it's for women. We advertise in grocery stores, doctor's offices. . . . Not everyone has seen it and we need to go back to places until everyone has seen it. It has such an important message.

It's like any divorce. If you see your ex-wife at the grocery store, either she's going to throw a bunch of eggs at you, or you're going to have a genuinely enjoyable conversation. To be able to see those guys and laugh with them and reminisce a little bit was good for my soul.

It slows down grocery shopping, because so many women at the store watch the show. I always end up talking to two or three people every time I go to Ralphs. It's fun.

That song was on the Dirt Band's Acoustic record, ... and in the time that passed between when we wrote it and when the Flatts cut it, what an amazing life that song had People would come up to all of us writers long before it was this monster hit -- I even had someone in the grocery store -- asking for copies of the lyric because they wanted to get married to it. And that's a wonderful feeling

That is kind of funny. It is kind of like going to the grocery store and having the register say $20 even.

They are not going to steal explosives from a military base, ... They are going out and then going to a grocery store, a pharmacy, a medical supply store, and buying chemicals and then making them themselves. So it was a group that was being taught to be self-reliant.

They walk in, look at the specials and they just keep walking. A lot of people think we're the customer service counter.

It's an excellent convenience, you can do your grocery shopping and do your banking all at the same time.

They will walk out with a week's worth of dinner menus with grocery lists to correspond with that. At Trinity, we'll actually be taste-testing one of the day's menus.

It's not a matter of we lack fuel, we just can't get it out of the ground because we lack power, ... Grocery stores are closed because we don't have power. The longer we go without power, the worse the situation gets.

Expanding our Supply Chain Solutions to include planning capabilities was a logical step in continuing to offer our food and grocery customers solutions that help them effectively balance supply and demand. When you are dealing with perishable items, effective inventory management and accurate forecasting are essential.

I'm not one of those kind of people who does the observational 'Hey, don't you hate it when you're at the grocery store and the line's long and the cash register starts taking too long.' I don't really do that kind of stuff. I'm heavy on persona, and I do a lot of interacting with the audience.

I learned a couple of things. I'm not the greatest cook, but the basics were a great start, and it was fun for the kids. I go to the grocery store on Thursdays, buy a lot of stuff, and start cooking, only the small things because there's no room for the big stuff.

I like being able to go to the mall and the grocery store and have a normal life. I've seen what those guys go through. I witnessed it with Frank. He could barely walk in the mall without getting mauled, and people following him. They can have all that. I just want to make a good living, be able to support my family and stay under the radar. I like my privacy too much.

In most hospitals, paging Nurse Flamingo means a fire. Dr. Blaze means a fire. Dr. Green means a suicide. Dr. Blue means somebody stopped breathing. Nothing is straight forward anymore. In a grocery store, paging Mr. Cash is a call for an armed security guard. Paging "Freight check to Women's Clothing" means somebody is shoplifting in that department. Other stores page a fake woman named Sheila. "Sheila to the front" means somebody is shoplifting in the front of the store. Mr. Cash and Sheila and Nurse Flamingo are always bad news. It's what people say when they don't want you to hear the truth.

In L.A., I'm a normal popular guy -- that's what I always liked about being famous. I can still go to the grocery store without being accosted. Back then, the world speeded up to me.
