Acme – New Providence, New Jersey

Location: 1260 Springfield Ave, New Providence, NJ

New lighting in Produce!


New stickers on the wall art for this store! I would have to say they look better than the white stickers we've seen previously. These seem to blend in a little bit more.

This store has the 4th-ish round of the fresh decor. A sort of mash up of rounds 1 and 3. 

Seating area with flat screen TVs remain in place.


First thing this morning so the chickens were't out of the rotisserie just yet.




Beautiful bakery in the round...


Truth be told... I'm finding the bakeries to be extremely inconsistent from store to store. This place has a great selection, as does Weehawken from what I saw this morning. Edgewater and West New York have been very disappointing. Selection of fresh baked breads have been minimal to none.


Seafood to the left of the Bakery. 

Health food aisle with no signage indicating as such. A&P did have signage here when I was here a few years ago. 

Looks like the A&P logo was painted over bore the stickers were put on.

I was beginning to think they weren't using the "Something More For Less" shelf tags in these conversions. They certainly have them here!

I'm surprised Acme to beef up the lighting in the Dairy aisle and in the frozen food section in the front of the store. It's a little dreary. 

No Acme sign at the front-end. Looks like they tried to make up for it by hanging a My Mixx cell phone sign. 

4 express registers were installed where the self-checkouts were located. 

These images were included in the recent "Future Acme Markets" post and have been added to this post as well. Some of the satellite views show the Acme still standing with work starting on the new A&P. You can see how they A&P expanded out of Acme's original footprint...



And a quick jump across town to see the old A&P which has been abandoned since the replacement store opened...





This store had a basic version of the first "fresh" remodel but the exterior signage was never updated.
