		The other five stores continued to struggle, as the limited size and lack of warehouse format-specific marketing (they started running the same advertisements as a normal Lucky Store, and most of the prices were about the same) combined to help their demise.

	Lucky's at Alma Plaza (HELP SAVE IT!)
		Lucky's owner American Stores has been using "divide and conquer" tactics to win over various subgroups, for example by playing on the fears of neighbors that their supermarket will close if it can't be expanded.
		If the city wishes Lucky's to devote much of its space to selling video cassettes, toaster ovens, coffee pots, cameras, and other taxable items in order to boost tax revenues, this should be clearly stated from the outset, as it is not what neighbors are expecting in a food store.
		Especially notable are the rectangular Lucky's sign (once a trademark of all the chain's stores) and the store's generous glass area.

	Editorial: Lucky proposalmisses the mark (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		As the only grocery store chain operating in two locations in Palo Alto, one of the country's most sought-after retail addresses, one might expect Lucky Stores to have a keen interest in the community and our goal of maintaining neighborhood-scale shopping areas.
		Lucky, which also operates a store at the Edgewood Shopping Center, got a rather deservedly unfriendly reception last week before the Planning Commission.
		Lucky is sitting on a prime piece of Palo Alto real estate, and the city should be insisting on a redevelopment that meets the needs of the neighborhood, is in scale with the area and the available parking and doesn't trade off additional size with a token public benefit.
