> For more than 30 years, Silver Lake resident Mike Aceto has regularly shopped at Ralphs supermarket. [The Glendale Boulevard store’s](https://maps.google.com/maps?q=2520+glendale+Boulevard,+Los+Angeles,+CA&hl=en&ll=34.102903,-118.258445&spn=0.012064,0.026157&sll=34.103,-118.257985&sspn=0.012064,0.026157&hnear=2520+Glendale+Blvd,+Los+Angeles,+California+90039-3220&t=m&z=16&output=classic&dg=oo%20) convenient location, competitive prices and friendly staff were some of the reasons why Aceto kept returning. “It’s close to home, I can ride my bike here,” Aceto said with a bagful of recently purchased groceries in his hand.
>
> Aceto’s longtime loyalty to the supermarket chain forever changes on Sunday, March 15, when Ralphs officially closes the doors of the Silver Lake store, which will be replaced by a Whole Foods market. Where will Aceto and other Ralphs customers go to shop for groceries?
>
> “Other places are further away. I’ll probably shop at Albertson’s on Hillhurst,” Aceto said. “I can’t afford Whole Foods,” he added regarding the Whole Foods Market that will move into the space after its renovated and expanded. *([Read the rest](http://www.theeastsiderla.com/2015/03/attention-ralphs-customers-where-will-you-shop-after-the-silver-lake-ralphs-closes/%20))*
