I used to love Kroger. Until the pandemic, everything is 30% more. Went to Walmart a few weeks back and saved so much, it was nuts. I hate Walmart but I guess now I’m going back.

I haven't shopped regularly at Kroger since I found out about Aldi around 2017. I never did like Kroger's membership program and they've only added tiers to it since. I do love their brand of natural peanut butter (just peanuts and salt in the ingredients list), so on the rare occasion I'll stop by to pick that up. Each time I have stopped by, I see more and more ridiculous pricing and with dumb tiered membership pricing on the tags which is annoying when trying to get pricing info at a glance.

I hope they get denied, because they can rebuy those stores again.

Someone’s missing the point. I hope the FTC tells them to get fucked.
Same. Both of these companies have done acquisitions over the years, all promising better prices and more jobs when the end result is poorer quality products at the same or higher price and less jobs overall.
I hope the FTC tells them to get bent.
