NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) 

Note 1    Basis of Presentation

The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements as of July 29, 1995, included
herein, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to
Form 10-Q and rule 10-01. The balance sheet at October 29, 1994 has been
derived from the audited financial statements at that date. In the opinion
of the management of the Registrant, all adjustments (consisting only of
normal recurring accruals) which the Registrant considers necessary for a
fair presentation of the results of operations for the period have been made.
Certain financial information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. The reader is referred
to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Registrant's annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended October 29,
1994.

The Registrant has classified its debt to institutional lenders as of 
October 29, 1994 according to the payment schedules in the original loan
agreements. While the Registrant was in default of these agreements at that
time, it concluded a refinancing on February 15, 1995 and repaid those
lenders.

These results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire 
fiscal year.
   
Note 2    Adoption of Accounting Standards

Employee Benefit Plans 

Effective October 30, 1994, the Registrant adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 112, "Employers' Accounting for
Postemployment Benefits." SFAS No. 112 requires the accrual for
postemployment benefits provided to former or inactive employees. The effect
of this change resulted in a pre tax charge of $236,000 and an after tax
charge of $175,000 or $.16 per share in the quarter ended January 29, 1995.
There was no material effect on earnings, in the quarter ended July 29, 1995,
from the adoption of SFAS No. 112. Prior to this change, the Registrant
charged these amounts to expense on a cash basis.










         Part I - Item 2  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
       Condition and Results of Operations

Financial Condition and Liquidity

On February 15, 1995, the Registrant entered into a Revolving Credit and Term
Loan Agreement ("the Agreement") with a group of banks providing for a total
commitment of $38,000,000, secured by substantially all of the Registrant's
assets. The proceeds from this financing were utilized to repay the
Registrant's Senior notes and bank debt which totaled $33,200,000. The
Agreement provides a working capital facility to fund future operations and
capital expenditures. 

The Agreement consists of three Term Loans (A, B and C) and a Revolving Note.
Term Loan A totals $2,000,000, bears interest at 2% over prime, and is due
August 15, 1995. Term Loan B totals $8,500,000, bears interest at 2% over
prime and is due February 15, 1996. Term Loans A and B are expected to be
repaid from asset sales or equipment refinancing. Term Loan C totals
$12,500,000 and bears interest at 2% over prime until Term Loans A and B are
repaid, at which time interest is reduced to 1.25% over prime. Term Loan C
is payable in quarterly installments commencing March 31, 1996 through
December 31, 1998. The Revolving Note, with a total availability of
$15,000,000 bears interest at 1.5% over prime until Term Loans A and B are
repaid, at which time interest is reduced to 1.25% over prime. A commitment
fee of 1/2 of 1 percent is charged on the unused portion of the Revolving
Note.

Pursuant to the provisions of the terminated loan agreements, the Registrant
was required to pay a special premium totaling $1,100,000. Additionally, the
Registrant paid the new lenders a facility fee of $1,000,000 and an annual
administrative fee of $150,000. The Registrant wrote off, in the second
quarter of 1995, expenses of $1,848,000, including the special premium, 
related to the early extinguishment of debt.

The Agreement contains certain affirmative and negative covenants which,
among other matters will, (i) restrict capital expenditures, (ii) require the
maintenance of certain levels of net worth and earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization, and maintenance of (iii) fixed charge
coverage and total liabilities to net worth ratios. 

The new Agreement combined with an asset redeployment plan strengthens the
Registrant's financial condition by reducing outstanding debt, lowering
interest cost and providing working capital through the Revolving Note.


<PAGE>
In order to repay Term Loans A and B on a timely basis, the Registrant has
developed an Asset Redeployment Program. This program consists of the sale
of the assets of two supermarkets located in Bethlehem and Whitehall,
Pennsylvania, the sale of a real estate partnership interest in a non-
supermarket property located in Shrewsbury, New Jersey, the sale/leaseback
or mortgaging of a supermarket building owned by the Registrant and located
in Aberdeen, New Jersey and the financing of equipment at three operating
locations in Neptune, Piscataway and Sayreville, New Jersey. Other than the
sale of the two supermarkets in Pennsylvania, it is not anticipated that the
Asset Redeployment Program will have any impact on the Registrant's sales,
gross margins or net income. As of July 29, 1995 Term Loan A had been fully
repaid and the outstanding balance on Term Loan B was $5,500,000. The
Registrant anticipates that the proceeds from additional sale or refinancing
of assets will be sufficient to satisfy Term Loan B. There can be no
assurance that such proceeds will be fully realized. 

On May 23, 1995 the Registrant concluded the sale of its two operating
locations in Pennsylvania for $5,700,000 plus inventory of $2,300,000 and
obtained the return of its investment in Wakefern, a related party, with
respect to the two stores. All proceeds were in cash and were used to reduce
outstanding debt. Proceeds of $2,000,000 was used to repay Term Loan A,
$3,000,000 was applied against Term Loan B, $1,200,000 of equipment leases
were fully repaid, $900,000 repaid debt due to Wakefern and the balance of
the proceeds was applied against accounts payable and the Revolving Note.

The Registrant's compliance with the major financial covenants under the 
Agreement was as follows for the thirty-nine weeks ended July 29, 1995:

                                                      Actual             
Financial                  Loan                      (As defined in Loan
Covenant                   Agreement                  Agreement)          

Capital Expenditures       Less than $4,796,000        $   993,000
Net Worth                  Greater than $27,500,000    $30,653,000
Fixed charge coverage
 ratio                     Greater than .9 to 1.00     1.98 to 1.00
Total liabilities to
 net worth ratio           Less than 3.15 to 1.00      2.51 to 1.00
EBITDA                     Greater than $10,300,000    $12,832,000

Under the terminated loan facility, the Registrant was not in compliance with
interest coverage and cash flow coverage covenants since the quarter ended
July 31, 1993. Additionally, the Registrant was in default of the current
ratio and working capital covenants since the quarter ended October 30, 1993.
The Registrant was also in violation of the net worth provision for the
quarters ended July 31, 1993, April 30, 1994, July 30,1994 and October 29,
1994 and was in default of the capital expenditures covenant for the year
ended October 30, 1993.

These covenant violations were primarily the result of the losses incurred
in the quarter ended July 31, 1993 when the Registrant was impacted by a
strike of its employees in Local 1262.

Working Capital

At July 29, 1995, the Registrant had a working capital deficiency of
$9,957,000 compared to a deficiency of $8,674,000 at October 29, 1994 and a
deficiency of $29,704,000 at July 29, 1994 which was the result of reflecting
$28,379,000 of debt in default as a current liability.

The increase in working capital deficiency of $1,283,000 from October 29,
1994 to July 29, 1995 was primarily the result of the use of current assets
to pay down long-term debt. As part of the Asset Redeployment Program
previously discussed, a portion of the debt classified as current will be
repaid or replaced by long-term debt.

Working capital ratios were as follows:

         July 29, 1995      0.79 to 1.0
         October 29, 1994   0.84 to 1.0
         July 29, 1994      0.56 to 1.0

Cash flows (in millions) were as follows for the thirty-nine weeks ended:


                           7/29/95                 7/30/94

Operating activities...   $  9.7                   $ 8.1   
Investing activities...      3.8                    (5.0)
Financing activities...    (14.5)                   (2.5)
       Totals             $( 1.0)                  $ 0.6 


The Registrant had $8,213,000 of available credit, at July 29, 1995, under
its  revolving credit facility and believes that its capital resources are
adequate to meet its operating needs, scheduled capital expenditures and debt
service in fiscal 1995.

Other assets increased as a result of additional collateral required for
worker's compensation insurance and financing costs associated with debt
refinancing, which costs will be amortized quarterly over the term of the
loan. These increases were partially offset by the return of the investment
in related party from the sale of the Pennsylvania stores and the write off
of $806,000 of goodwill associated with the Pennsylvania stores.

Depreciation and amortization totaled $9,044,000 while capital expenditures
totaled $993,000, compared to $9,403,000 and $5,032,000 respectively in the
prior year.  









Results of Operations    (13 weeks ended July 29, 1995 compared to 13
                          weeks ended July 30, 1994)

Sales:

Sales for the twenty stores in operation for the current quarter, including
the two Pennsylvania stores which were only operated through May 22, 1995,
totaled $145.9 million as compared to $150.8 million of sales from twenty one
stores operated in the prior year period. Same store sales from the eighteen
stores operated in both years totaled $142.9 million for the current year
quarter compared to $135.7 million in the prior year, an increase of 5.26%.

The increase in same store sales was primarily the result of a corresponding
increase in the number of customer transactions. An increase in advertising
and promotion expense in the current period contributed to the increase in
customer transactions.

Gross Profit:

The current period produced gross profit of 25.63% versus 25.47% in the prior
year period. The exclusion of results of the two Pennsylvania stores would
not have had any material impact on gross profit percentages when comparing
current period to prior year period. 

Operating Expenses:

Selling general and administrative expenses totaled 24.57% of sales during
this quarter compared to 24.29% in the prior year period. Current period
expenses were increased by $96,000 resulting from a loss on the sale of the
two Pennsylvania locations.

The increase in operating expenses, as a percentage of sales, was due to
increases in certain expense categories. Advertising rose by .14%, supply
costs increased by .30% and administration expense increased by .49%. These
increases were partially offset by a decrease in payroll and fringe benefits 
of .29% and occupancy costs of .41%. All expense categories were impacted by
the operation of Pennsylvania stores for only a portion of the quarter as
well as the increase in same store sales. 

Interest Expense - Net:

Current period costs were $810,000 (.56% of sales)compared to $1,222,000 
(.81% of sales) in the prior year period. Total debt decreased by $14,348,000 
since July 30, 1994 while interest rates have increased on floating rate
debt. Interest income increased by $104,000 period to period reflecting
interest earned on landlord deposits.







Income Taxes:

Taxes have been computed at 26% of the current period pre tax income based
on the full fiscal 1994 effective rate, versus a rate of 32%  used to
calculate the provision in the prior year period. 

Net Income:

Net income of $545,000 was realized for the current quarter versus  net
income of $384,000 in the prior year period. The current quarter includes an
after tax loss of $71,000 on the sale of the Pennsylvania stores. Earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") for the
current period were $5,326,000 as compared to $5,162,000 in the prior year
period. 

Excluding the loss on the sale of and operating losses from the  Pennsylvania
stores, income would have been $782,000 or $.67 per share for the thirteen
weeks ended July 29, 1995 and $452,000 or $.37 per share in the prior year
period.

Net income per common share, of $.45 in the current period and $.31 in the
prior year period, is based on 1,118,150 shares outstanding, after a
provision of $34,000 for preferred stock dividends in both periods. 


(39 weeks ended July 29, 1995 compared to 39 weeks ended July 30, 1994)


Sales:

For the thirty-nine weeks ended July 29, 1995 sales totaled $443,905,000
compared to $459,828,000 in the prior year period. Twenty stores were
operating in the current period versus twenty one previously. Same store
sales increased .86% for the eighteen stores operated in both years.

Gross Profit:

The thirty-nine weeks ended July 29, 1995 generated gross profit of 25.35%
compared to 24.63% in the comparable prior year period. An inventory
reduction program in the prior year affected those results. Excluding the
results of the Pennsyvania stores would not have had any material impact on
the gross profit percentages for both the current and prior year thirty-nine
week periods.








Operating Expenses:

Selling general and administrative expenses totaled 24.39% of sales after a
net gain on the sale of property of .11% for the current thirty-nine weeks
compared to 24.10% in the prior year period. The increase was caused
primarily by an increase in administration costs of .21% and supply costs 
of .19%.

Interest Expense - Net:

For the thirty-nine weeks ended July 29, 1995 and July 30, 1994 interest
expense totaled $3,318,000 and $3,726,000, respectively, representing .75%
and .81% of sales. The decrease in interest expense was caused by the
reduction in debt discussed previously and an increase in interest income of
$83,000, offset by  increased interest rates on floating rate debt. 

Income Taxes:

Taxes were computed at a 26% rate currently and 32% in the prior year. These
rates were based on the effective tax rates for fiscal 1994 and 1993,
respectively.

Net Income (Loss):

Income, before an extraordinary item and cumulative effect of change in
accounting, of $698,000 or $.53 per share was realized for the current
thirty-nine weeks. These amounts include a net after tax gain of $351,000 or
$.31 per share which includes a gain on the sale of a closed supermarket
building, offset by a loss on the sale of the two Pennsylvania stores. In the
prior year period the Registrant incurred a loss of $877,000.

After a post tax extraordinary charge of $1,368,000 or $1.22 per share
incurred in connection with the early extinguishment of debt, and a post tax
charge of $175,000 or $.16 per share for a change in accounting for
postemployment benefits, the Registrant reported a net loss of $845,000 or
$.85 per share versus a net loss of $877,000 or $.87 per share in the prior
year period. There were 1,118,150 shares outstanding in both periods.
Preferred stock dividends of $102,000 were used to compute per share earnings
in both periods. EBITDA for the thirty-nine weeks ended July 29, 1995 was
$12,832,000 compared to $11,840,000 in the prior year period.
    
Excluding the net loss from the sale of, and operating losses from, the two
Pennsylvania stores sold on May 23, 1995, income before the extraordinary
item and the change in accounting would have been $1,857,000 or $1.57 a share
for the thirty-nine week period ended July 29, 1995 compared with a loss of
$284,000 or $.35 a share in the comparable prior year period.
