mmmmmmmmmmmm... Spam BaconThe closed store is across the road from Save a Lot and about a mile from Wal-Mart.
Stores come and store go, and the people still have places to pick up a carton of milk or can of Spam nearby.
I’m sure this is a milepost for those who worked at Pathmark and the few customers who really like this store- but tastes change and Wal-Mart and Save-a-lot probably offered better prices. I don’t see this as much of a disaster for the community, or even a sign of Camden’s deterioration. (not saying its not deteriorating, just that this doesn’t show it)
Save a Lot isn’t a supermarket? I do most of my shopping there or at Aldi’s.
mmmmmmmmmmmm... Spam BaconI’ll bet that Liquorama is doin OK...
I grew up in Merchantville which is a nice suburb a few miles from Camden. You learned quickly not to go to the local supermarkets, a shop n’ bag and a Thriftway, on the first of the month. Busloads of people from Camden with fresh government checks would fill those places up because there were virtually no supermarkets in Camden back then. That’s 30 years ago. Not a new issue.
