          (A)  Basis of Presentation
               ---------------------

               The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
          include the results of operations, account balances and cash flows 
          of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary.  All material

               In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited 
          consolidated financial statements include all adjustments 
          necessary to present fairly, in all material respects,
          the results of operations of the Company for the periods 
          presented.  The statements have been prepared by the Company 
          pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities

          have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
          regulations.  It is suggested that these consolidated financial
          statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
          statements and the accompanying notes included in the Company's
          1995 Annual Report.

              Management's Discussion And Analysis Of Financial 
                    Condition And Results Of Operations


          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

          Sales:
          -----

               Sales increased 6.94% for the thirteen-week period
          compared with the corresponding period last year.  Sales of 
          stores open during both the current and prior year periods 
          ("same store sales") increased 7.02%.  This increase in same 
          store sales reflects the second consecutive quarter in which 
          positive same store sales were reported.  The improved
          same store sales resulted primarily from positive customer 
          response to the Company's "Strategy 2000" program implemented 
          in March, 1995.  The "Strategy 2000" program included retail 
          price reductions on thousands of items, an increase in the 
          amount in which coupons are doubled (from $.49 to $.50), and 
          a new advertising campaign to promote these changes.
               At September 30, 1995, the Company operated 116 
          supermarkets and ten liquor stores compared with 120 
          supermarkets and twelve liquor stores at October 1, 1994.  
          During the thirteen-week period, the Company closed two under 
          performing supermarkets, closed two liquor stores, and 
          renovated fifteen supermarkets.


          Gross Profit:
          ------------

               Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased from 24.72%  
          to 22.65% for the current thirteen-week period.  The decrease was 
          primarily the result of retail price reductions on thousands of 
          items as part of the "Strategy 2000" program noted above.

          
          Selling, General and Administrative Expenses ("SG & A"):
          -------------------------------------------------------

               Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage 
          of sales decreased from 23.46% to 22.41% for the current
          thirteen-week period.  The decrease resulted from higher sales 
          in the current thirteen-week period as noted above.  SG and A 
          dollars increased by $1.36 million over last year's quarter  
          since stores wages increased $.23 million on increased sales, 
          advertising increased $.44 million primarily because of the 
          promotion of the "Strategy 2000" campaign, store depreciation 
          expense increased $.37 million due to equipment additions 
          from new stores and remodeled stores, and legal expenses 
          increased $.15 million primarily for costs related to 
          union matters.

          
          Interest Expense, Net
          ---------------------

               Interest expense, net increased by $.67 million over last 
          year's quarter because of interest expense related to
          restructuring charges and increased interest rates on the 
          Company's short-term indebtedness.

                    Condition And Results Of Operations


          Income Taxes:
          ------------     
          
               The effective rate for the income tax benefit was 32.74% 
          in the current quarter compared to an effective rate of 33.82% 
          for income tax expense in last year's quarter.  The income tax 
          benefit in the current quarter was a result of the loss in 
          earnings before taxes.


          LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

               The Company leases its store locations, but makes
          substantial expenditures to equip new and expanded supermarkets.  
          In addition, the Company makes substantial expenditures for
          distribution facilities and equipment.  The Company plans to
          finance its capital expenditures with funds provided by 
          operations.  However, if an insufficient amount of funds are 
          generated, the Company may draw on a short-term revolving
          loan.  The Company may borrow up to $75 million under the 
          revolving loan of which $40 million is available for future 
          use.  The revolving loan expires in June, 1998.
               Working capital decreased from $22,920,000 at July 1, 1995 
          to $19,872,000 as of September 30, 1995.  Additions to property 
          and equipment were $4,569,000 during the same period and 
          consisted primarily of purchases of store equipment.
