Items missing from the table had fewer than 25 Northeast store ads reported this week (or none). Store counts aren't independent observations, since many stores can share one chain's ad, so smaller regional figures can swing from week to week. "vs last year" compares the last 4 weeks with the same weeks a year earlier.
