May 9, 2021 · The Hopkins Red Owl eventually became Super Valu I remember. I got my arm stuck in a cart once and the butcher helped get it out (I was like 3). Also, the Byerly's in St Louis Park still has the groceries in tubs that go out the shoot and roll down the rollers and the guy/gal puts them in your trunk after you give them your plastic card with a ...

May 15, 2024 · With how trademarks work the use of "Red Owl" and the images and symbols associated with it in the grocery sector is registered to SuperValue Licensing LLC using the registration number 0740378 which was renewed last year.

Sep 24, 2022 · I grew up with Red Owl and it was my first job so I'm super nostalgic about the brand. I really wanted some of that merch, but $25-30 for a t-shirt was just too much. All of it was overpriced, hell even the stuff that ended up in the clearance area was a rip-off. I eventually snagged the measuring cup at a thrift store for a buck or two. Broke ...
