Pic N Save is an entirely different animal in Southern California.
Everywhere else it is a grocery chain (different spelling I think, different
owner), but here it is a closeout retailer owned by the soon to be previous
owner of KB Toys (called Consolidated Stores, INC.) It is UNLIKELY that the
SoCal stores will offer the same stuff as the grocery outlet, but they may
have some grocery items at or very near past the "do not sell by" date
(eeewww)! If you've ever heard of Big Lots, you know what I mean... Any of
those companies associated with KB are likely to be a little wierd.
