Possible PriceRite locations

Price Rite Grocery Store Super Market, 8/2014, Cromwell, CT. by Mike Mozart of TheToyChannel and JeepersMedia on YouTube.
Cromwell, CT store near Hartford.

PriceRite are ShopRite USAs sister chain. This is another one of those smaller markets that mostly carry own brands with a few nationals, all at everyday low prices. They're often in less-affluent neighbourhooods where there isn't a lot of money. While ShopRites are mostly franchises, PriceRites are almost all O&Os except the West coast in the giant LA area. They usually try not to be in the same area to avoid self competition for owner Wakefern (though the NY Capital Region and parts of Connecticut now have both chains). They compete with the big boxes and indies, but more with Aldi or Save-a-Lot to put it that way.
What I'm putting here is a list of towns where PriceRite should open in Upstate and even Downstate NY as well as PA:

Poughkeepsie - former Natures Harvest, US 9
Horseheads - former Aldi
Canandaigua - former Walmart
Syracuse - south side (South Ave; spear-headed by Jubilee Homes) - now open!
Tully - start from scratch despite rival Aldi having a warehouse in town yet not opening a store there
LaFayette - start from scratch
North Adams, MA - former Price Chopper if not something else already
Fulton - former kmart on NY 481; split with Planet Fitness
Oswego - former Peebles/Gordmans, NY 104
Cortland (US 11 & NY 41/Homer Ave.) - former Dollar Bazaar
Palatine Bridge - NY 5S; former Ames
Napanoch
Bridgeport - former Victory/Great American on NY 31 & 298
Geneva - former Tops, NY 14A
Pulaski - former Als Big Corner Market off US 11 and NY 13
Milford, PA - former Grand Union unless taken
Matamoras, PA - same as above
North Syracuse - former Media Play (Northern Lights)
