Southington

A link to a tribute site for the Southington, Connecticut Shaw's has been removed as of 11/15/06 due to a C&D Order being issued by Shaw's Inc aginst the tribute website. Marc Bramhall - Former operator of site

South Burlington

Oh yeah! In case none of you knew, the largest Shaw's is in South Burlington, Vermont.

It says that the location is in Idaho because that is the location of Albertson's (Shaw's parnet company) main offices

Terrible Care for Employees.

Shaws has always taken decent care of their full-time employees. But to be perfectly honest, they treat their part-timers like crap. The part-time workers at shaws seriously do most of the work and get paid minimum wage. It was the worst job of my life, and not even worth the small paychecks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 38.19.142.70 (talk) 03:21, 24 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sanford

The shaws in sanford was once a walmart in the 1990s — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.175.189.34 (talk) 16:50, 23 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

High Prices

Nowhere in this article is there a mention of why Shaw's had so many store closings. Apparently, it had (and still might have) the among highest prices of any supermarket chain the Boston area. Bostoner (talk) 22:22, 18 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
