ended July 29, 1995, Perry Sumas, President announced today.

compared to a net loss of $249,000 in the prior year. Fourth
quarter sales were $173,699,000, a decline of 7.5% from the prior
year. Sales decreased due to the current years fourth quarter
containing 13 weeks compared to 14 weeks one year ago and a store
closing one year ago.

In reviewing the quarter, Mr. Sumas attributed the improved
results compared to a year ago to higher gross margins. Operating
expenses as a percentage of sales were the same as a year ago as
decreases in payroll costs were offset by increased supply and
coupon costs. Same store sales increased by .7% in the quarter.  

Net income for the full fiscal year was $578,000 compared to a
net loss before the impact of an accounting change of $1,207,000
in the prior year. Sales for the year were $677,322,000 a decline
of 2.6% from the prior year. Sales declined due to a store closed
in August 1994 and a same store sales decrease of .7%.  Same
store sales declined due to the impact of new competitive
entries, continued sluggishness in the economy and comparison to
a prior year period that included higher promotional spending.
The improvement in net income in fiscal 1995, despite lower same
store sales is due to higher gross margins, and lower payroll and
coupon costs, partially offset by higher supply costs.
