Here in my area in NJ they want bilingual cashiers; I understand the logic, but couldn’t give a hoot if they lose their jobs. Our Pathmark closed years ago (and still sits vacant); they still had American workers.

I know there is wisdom there but I just can’t quite get at it... union shop closed down... non union shop open and employees getting paid... yeah there is something there! ;-)

Have to say the first Stop & Shop I ever visited was in NH. Loved the store. They were also good about hiring those that are as we say today, “challenged”. Too bad that unions are killing off another business.

There is a chain called Market Basket that has opened at least 3 new stores in the past 1.5 years around Manchester. They are priced lower than everyone else. They’re always packed with people. I think this is a major factor.

New Hampshire Gov. Maggie Hassan has directed the state's Rapid Response Team to provide assistance to over 1,1100 workers losing their jobs with the closing of six Stop & Shop supermarket stores and six Shaw's stores last week.

She's an idiot...probably a beneficiary of the fraud that got Zero elected...

Shaws prices are sky-high, It was just a matter of time before they started closing stores. Stop & Shop was never big in NH. Market Basket & SuperWalmart are taking over northern New England. Hannaford is ok, but they are startng to price like Shaw’s these days.
