How many stores are left?
ReplyDeleteAccording to the tracking I've done, there are 4 more to go but that puts the count at 180 when I believe the final number was supposed to be 179. All stores will be open by Friday so we'll know then what the final count is.
DeleteStill Gladwynne and Wynnewood PA along with Wilmington DE. I think that's it.
ReplyDeleteThat is correct! Just realized I still had the SuperFresh in Newark, DE on the list but Acme dropped that one.
DeleteWilmington must've needed extra work from the sound of it.
ReplyDeleteAssuming everything is open going to shoot for next Monday for a road trip to get pictures of whatever I can.
With 3 stores posted as opening today, would that make it 175 Acme/Acme Pharmacy/Acme Sav-on stores now?
ReplyDeleteYou're right! I'm so used to adding 4 to each count, I did that automatically this morning without even thinking about it.
DeleteLooks like store count is going up by one...they announced today they are also buying A&P Fresh in Boonton. The store is already closed and liquidated...so i wonder if they will be able to open it by Christmas.
ReplyDeleteIt's Official: ACME is Purchasing A&P in Boonton
ReplyDeleteI wonder if there is any chance they will also buy the Budd Lake/Mt Olive A&P.
ReplyDeleteI doubt it- it didn't seem to be doing much business in its' final years, likely due to the Walmart and Sam's Club over at the ITC Crossing, and the ShopRite, Walmart and Weis over in Hackettstown/Mansfield; not to mention the PFresh Target a couple miles down the road from the A&P.
DeleteOnly five more Acmes a-coming! The Randolph store closed the other day, and A&P will be dead in less than a week.
ReplyDeleteOnly? Says who?? There's actually six more confirmed at this time with possibly more to come.
DeleteI'm shocked that Acme has a Center City Philadelphia location with the store on South 5th street.
ReplyDeleteSeems like a good spot and it's a bit more unusual to still have an at least somewhat "normal" market in a city area like this. Found this one when we were taking a group to stay in Philly at the hostel and wanted to save room by buying everything there rather than trying to cart several days of foods with us from up here in NY.
DeleteForgot to add the 1001 South Street location too. That's also in Center City Philadelphia
DeleteAcme actually painted over the "Fresh" logos inside the South Street location. I wouls assume they did the same for 5th Street.
