There are a few Safeway and Sobey's locations that are very close to each other that I could see them selling off after the merger is complete (32nd Ave NE, almost across the street from each other; Riverbend/Ogden off 18th St on either side of Glenmore).

For the 32nd Ave locations, I could see either Co-op or Save-on being interested in buying one of those locations. They're both good size stores and far enough away from their other locations that they wouldn't be cannibalizing their own business.

The Ogden Safeway is one of the older smaller stores, so it could be sub-divided and/or taken over by a store like Shoppers Drug Mart, like a few of the other older Safeway stores have been.
