Default Food Stores

Stop & Shop & Shaws had did away with reward programs. Everybody benefits.

Hannaford, Super Walmart and Market Basket stick with low prices and very few sales where it is costly to advertised, and readjust the cost as well as stocking.

I think Shaw's will be OK. Lowes made a huge mistake of becoming the 'neighborhood' hardware store, with too many stores close to each other. I notice Shaw's have a small store in Belmont, I'm surprise that remains open as it is situated between the Lowell and Laconia store.

Although I like to shop for staples at MB or Wally World, I think the produce can't be beat at Shaw's and or Hannaford. Shaw's has the best salad bar hands down. When it comes to meat, I had bad meat at all locations. They refund my money and Shaw's double your refund. Which is a good thing but it is still a hassle to return.

I work in Concord off 106 and travel to Laconia. I drive by the Steeplegate Mall and Shaws, Home Depot, Target is right there. On the way home I can stop at Wally World and Sam's. The gas stations near NHMS are usually the cheapest in the area, as is Sam's. I can't complain much about returning something or making round trips.
