I was in Sweetbay, LSL yesterday. Don't know if it was because of the holiday/weekend, but, sure seemed to me that the inventory was noticeably depleted, especially the Hannaford house brands. Also, Sweetbay's weekly ads the past 2 weeks have been very skimpy.

Wonder if this is the beginning of the transition to Winn Dixie? I will be sorry to see Sweetbay go. It would never be my primary grocery store (just can't beat Publix) but I liked some of the products they carried and prefer their Deli to Publix. Winn Dixie has always just been OK to me, my 3rd choice in the local chains.
