All it means is if there is a Dangerway's near where you live, and if
you are interested in the price of chicken breasts, it might be worth
your while to check.

There's not a Dangerway's near here, nor a Trader Joe's, so if someone
posts that they got a really good deal there on something, I think
"woo-hoo! What a deal!" and I don't waste my time looking for the same deal.

I like seeing that, say, frozen shrimp are on sale 3 bags for $10 at Cub
Foods. That doesn't mean they will be that price where I live, but at
least I know to look.

It's not that big a deal either way.

P.S. As far as I know, frozen shrimp are *not* on sale 3 bags for $10
