I hear good things about this Lucky store. Is it really cheaper than Safeway?

Yup. Also, it's a *lot* bigger (well, okay, the Lucky by my house is bigger than either of the Safeways or the Andronico's by my house), and the quality seems to be about the same between store brands.

I generally go there because it's the only one of the local stores that carries the one fiber-enriched yogurt I'll eat (Yo+) in the one flavor I'll eat of it (cherry). While I'm there, I might as well get everything else we need, but yes, overall, I think the prices are lower. Plus, they have the neat self-checkout things, which I find both useful and fascinating.

Intriguing. I live right by Safeway. There don't appear to be any Lucky stores really close by, but I guess if I'm in the area, I'll check it out.

Well, it's right near the ECP BART where the new Joann's is, and the bookstore. :)

It's not sufficiently interesting to be worth a dedicated trip, though, unless there's some specific thing you're looking for and can't find (in which case you should tell me and I'll check for it when I by there tomorrow).

I have no spec-Hormel Turkey Pepperoni.

I have no idea why I cannot find it at Safeway! I have to bring it back when I go home to Texas. This is California, for God's sake. If they have it at Lucky, that would be pretty sweet.
