However, Lucky's was purchased by Kroger a few years later, and after being sold again a few years after that, Lucky's was forced to file for bankruptcy. It was at this point that Alfalfa's Local Market took over, only to find itself in the same predicament around the same time that the COVID pandemic was in full swing and closed its doors as well.
