I think it's important that we all know which chain of stores in your area are linked to the Safeway brand. I have found that VONS is linked to there stores in San Diego & the Temecula area.
Here is a link for the store locator: http://www.safeway.com/IFL/Grocery/Store-Locator |

Some media exposure, picket line, demonstration, something of that nature might make them notice though. |

Safeway in SoCal is Vons. They probably will not notice our boycott, but if hundreds, hopefully thousands of people send a letter to the company expressing disappointment with their misguided support of the MLPA closures, someone might pay attention.
I sent my letter and so have several of my friends. You should do it too. The thing is that this position is probably not a considered one. I bet that someone in the marketing department thought that they could get some "Green Points" by embracing the MLPA closures without taking time to learn anything about the subject. I suspect that no one in the department that made this proclamation has any clue what this issue is all about. When you write, make that point the focus of your argument. Bob |

I will send a letter. One of these days though we really oughta try to get some media exposure, put all of this crap in the minds of the public and hopefully the higher-ups that make these decisions. |
