Rite Aid same store sales dip

Camp Hill, Pa. -- Rite Aid reported a 4% drop in same store sales for the four weeks ending April 27, 2013 compared to the same period a year earlier. The drugstore chain blamed part of the drop on the negative impact of an early Easter this year on front-end sales.



Same store sales also declined 3% for the eight-week period ending April 27, 2013 compared to the same eight weeks in 2012.
