It is here. They went back to the "Lucky" name where I live, but they
pretty much lost me as a customer during the time they went
"Albertson" because they were so expensive and I wasn't getting
anything upscale for the money. As "Lucky", they're an equal with
Safeway. Maybe they have different sales and carry a few different
brands, but pricewise - they're the same.
