The strike will affect 77 stores in Adams, Arapahoe, Broomfield, Denver, Douglas and Jefferson counties, as well as in Boulder and Louisville.

The start of a two-week-long strike by thousands of Colorado King Soopers workers meant people on the picket lines and shoppers either choosing to cross those lines or avoiding King Soopers in favor of other grocery stores.

For striking workers, this means unpaid days on the picket line. For stores, it means fewer working employees to stock shelves and help customers, and for those customers, it means making a choice about where they shop.
