It appears there's about to be a seismic shift in the grocery store market in Illinois. A new report claims that as many as 35 Illinois grocery stores are being identified and planned for selloff after a mega-merger is complete.

I certainly did not expect this, but now I've seen multiple reports confirm that Hy-Vee is about to permanently close 3 locations in Iowa as of June 23.

If you've ever wanted your own grocery store land/property, I found some leads for you. It's actually from one of the more popular grocery chains in Missouri that suddenly has 3 locations available.

I really should pay more attention. That's advice I get often that I really should take to heart. I had not noticed before that one of the more popular grocery chains in Wisconsin that often opens new stores now is selling some property and I'm pretty sure I know what's going on.

As I was looking through some new grand openings for one of the most popular grocery store chains in Illinois, I noticed something curious. That same chain that has been rapidly opening new locations now suddenly has 16 properties for sale.

I understand the appeal, but I also have so many questions. An Illinois-based grocery store chain claims that their customers most want smarter shopping carts. The question is whether or not shoppers have really thought this through.

The shoes have already been posted for big bucks on resale websites.

You're probably being influenced and you don't even know it.

A massive merger of grocery store chains that included many locations in Illinois is now on immediate hold thanks to concern from government regulators.
