Could you name any current/former Safeways anywhere near Baltimore/DC from around the same period? A few others that come to mind: 1) Former Safeway at 598 Cranbrook Road in Timonium/Cockeysville, MD. Now Merritt Athletic Club and Valley Mansion by Martins (a catering facility) 2) Former Safeway at...

I would say that Gerry is correct. Here is a link to a photo of a Nu-Way Supermarket taken during the Grand Opening of the Thruway Plaza in Cheektowaga (suburban Buffalo), NY in 1952. http://wnyheritagepress.org/photos_week_2006/thruway_plaza/thruway_plaza.htm The store looks quite similar to Acme M...

The was also a Waldbaum's in Vails Gate, NY at the intersection of NY Route 32, NY Route 94, & NY Route 300. The location was previously a Barkers Discount Department Store and is now a Price Chopper supermarket. I liked this store very much - probably just as much as the barrel roofed Shop Rite...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't there a May's at the Dutchess Mall in Fishkill,NY? It was a 2-story store!!

You are correct, sir!

I'm new to this forum, but thought I'd add a bit here. There's a former Jack in the Box in New Paltz,NY that is still standing today. It was a mountain sport shop for some time and is turning into a Hookah Shop. I'll get a picture if you are interested. There was a Jack in the Box location in Vails...

Hi, Yes , Port Jervis is a poor City with a high crime rate. Acme and A&P both pulled out in tthe late 70!s and early 80!s due to major floods and poverty as well as crime. The former A&P became a Sav A Lot and closed. It may not be Newburgh, but it isn!t a fun place, Wow, I remember workin...

The Value City Furniture in Baltimore, oddly enough, is a former Service Merchandise, and was next to a Target Greatland. Wait a minute, they had Value City that early? I thought it was an 80's chain. If you are referring to the Nottingham Square (White Marsh, MD/suburban Baltimore County) Value Ci...

Gerry, There was a Big V Shop-Rite Supermarket on NY Rt 32 in Vails Gate, NY that looked exactly like the Metro Supermarket in Toronto, Ontario shown in this link: http://www.groceteria.com/2009/08/18/metro-former-grand-union-15-ellesmere-road-toronto/ http://www.groceteria.com/wp-content/uploads/20...

The chain that Acme bought in Western New York was "Nu-Way". There was a Acme/Nu-Way warehouse on Bailey Ave. and Broadway in Buffalo that also included a S&H Green Stamps redemption center. The are many former Acme locations still standing in Buffalo and Western New York State includi...

The A-Frame Safeway in Frederick, MD was closed in 1987 and replaced by the 7th St. Safeway.

There is an old Acme A-Frame on W. Patrick St. across from the Comcast offices that has been converted to other uses.

There was a Carmack-Jay's supermarket on the corner of W. Patrick St. (US 40) and Willowdale Drive. It was a 24-hour store operated as a division of Weis Supermarkets based in Sunbury, PA. The store is now a SuperPetz store, another division of Weis Markets. I believe the chain was a local Frederick...

Yes, "TYFSAK" is an acronym for "Thank You For Shopping At K-Mart". At the K-Mart locations in the Buffalo, NY Metro Area (and most likely, many other areas), each NCR 280 installed in the store had a sticker placed to the left of the keypad that emphasized the phrase "TYFSA...

The NCR 280 pictures make me want to say "TYFSAK"

According to "The Weis Project", the Weis Supermarket at the Newburgh Mall is now Bed, Bath, & Beyond. http://www.weisproject.com/past_detail.php?num=7 Weis was located just to the left of the main entrance to the mall and was a stand alone store. Also, Weis was one of the original ten...

Any idea when it was in operation? Or when it closed?
