• ABC News reports that "Sprouts Farmers Market is encouraging customers to check their bank accounts for unusual activity in the last month. The chain learned that illegal software targeted customers' information at 19 of its 151 stores between Jan. 25 and Jan. 29, 2013.
"Thirteen stores in Arizona and six Southern California stores were affected," though Sprouts also says that it believes that "fewer than 2 percent of its card transactions in January were possibly compromised."
• The Kansas City Star reports that the new Hy-Vee in Overland Park - scheduled to open today - "in addition to having a restaurant, will serve beer and wine in its second-floor bar. It will be just the second Hy-Vee to have those offerings."
According to the story, "The bar at the Overland Park store, which has a license as a drinking establishment, has floor-to-ceiling windows on two sides, cozy booths, tables and chairs, and bar seating. It will have 17 wines by the glass or bottle, 25 bottled beers to choose from and eight on tap."
