I don't know where saturdaysaint is located, but people in West Michigan really do think of Meijer as a local grocery store. Many older people refer to it as "Meijer's", as in "Fred Meijer's Thrifty Acres", the old name for the store when it was far smaller than it is today.
They've enjoyed a lot of success, but Michiganders still think of it as "our" store, and they're headquartered in a Michigan town you may have never even heard of.
