I'm assuming this is the Giant here in Pennsylvania, and not Super G, which is known as Giant in the Washington/Baltimore market, right?

Safeway's prices were a tad high when I shopped at their stores in DC and MD. The card was really just an excuse. Super Fresh seems to be the same way, as I tend to find the best prices at Acme. Shop-Rite is actually not bad, and the card makes prices even lower.

I'm not sure where CVS is headed with the ExtraCare Card. To me, it's just another damned card or keychain tag. I'm not against marketing practices, but are we safe from the clutches of research anymore?

(On a side note, one thing I DO like about the Super Fresh at Franklin Mills is the self-checkout lane. Very cool.)
