So anyway Saturday night I went to a gathering of my high school classmates (it's been 13 years) at Chicago Sam's Sports Bar (formerly Rookies) in Cromwell, Connecticut. After I left I walked over to the KMART in the same plaza. I walked past a junk-store next to KMART called Xpect Discounts and all their shopping carts were lined up on the sidewalk outside the store. I looked at them and the handle on every shopping cart said "Marc's". I thought to myself "these are my shopping carts".

I know exactly where thosed carts are from. They are the property of Marc Glassman Inc. He is the owner of Marc's Super Deep Discount Stores which is a family owned supermarket chain here in Northeast Ohio, buy he is also the owner of Xpect Discounts as well. If I didn't know any better those carts probably got transferred from one his stores here in Northeast, Ohio to one of his Xpect Discount Stores there in Connecticut.

I was going to say exactly the same (having been in Ohio last summer and seeing these stores) - no idea why they didn't just use the Marc's name on the CT stores as well (unless someone else has a right to it there?).

Here's the link to the Xpect Page - the Cromwell store you referred to is shown on the page (along with pictures of their other stores in CT).
