What this record means
The record shows that the mark “PENNY-POWER PRICES” is no longer active; it was cancelled under Section 18 by the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board on December 14, 1990. The owner listed is BROCKTON PUBLIC MARKETS, INC., a corporation organized in Massachusetts. The mark was registered on the Principal Register in 1975 for the class 042 services, specifically “GROCERY STORE SERVICES.” A similar name would raise the closest concern for use in grocery‑store‑related services, such as marketing, pricing, or promotional activities for food retailers. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the wording, only over the specified services. No prosecution history is shown, and no enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations beyond the Section 18 cancellation appear. With no further maintenance or renewal dates listed, the supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status reduces the risk, but the specific grocery‑store service scope remains a potential point of concern.
