Modesto, CA former Lucky (?)
I was told that this Save Mart was originally a Lucky, and I know that the neighboring Big Lots started as a Thrifty Drug. The shopping center sure looks similar to the Marlin Cove shopping center from 1972 at 1050 Foster City Blvd. in Foster City, CA that also housed a Lucky and a Thrifty, and has been mostly demolished. Does anybody know when this opened originally, and if the Save Mart was indeed a Lucky before?

I'm pretty sure Lucky retained the Merced store.
Not sure if it was retained by Lucky North or Lucky South, but it is part of Cerberus North now.

I'm pretty sure Tulare was Lucky South. I recall stopping in there when North had the Rewards Card, and they were not participating, nor was the rest of Lucky South at that time.
It is also possible that Tulare was simply using SoCal's ad program but actually controled by Lucky North.
I do know Tulare is presently a Supervalu store.

The Modesto Lucky on Dale/Standiford is my all time fave grocery store. We went there several times a week. It was next to a Long's Drug store. While Save Mart may have acquired the building in 97, they had stopped being Luckys long before that.

Actually, this store was still a Lucky until 1997; I remember seeing it. Also, my grandpa, not having noticed the changeover, tried using his Lucky rewards card at this store, but the checker told him "We're not Lucky anymore, we're Save Mart". Why was this your favorite grocery store?Buckethead wrote:The Modesto Lucky on Dale/Standiford is my all time fave grocery store. We went there several times a week.
