Important Savings at the Supermarket

Important Savings at the Supermarket

If you have a Shop Rite supermarket in your community, you may want to be aware of some important ways to save money. 

The first is for everybody and contributes to the good of our earth.  At Shop Rite supermarkets, if you take in your own bags or used plastic bags from any store, not just Shop Rite, you will get $0.02 deducted from your bill for each one used to pack your new purchases.  When I put my groceries away, I put the bags back in the trunk of my car to carry in on my next trip.  While ten to twenty cents a week may not seem like much, over the year it is one more thing that adds up.  If you consider at least one shopping trip a week and five to ten bags per trip that stay out of landfills, it comes to a few hundred plastic bags.  Mother earth will thank you! 

If you are a disabled veteran or active military,

be sure to take your VA disabled card or your military ID with you when you shop.  Show it, and you will get 10% off your entire order (except for tobacco products).  The Shop Rite commitment to those military members who serve us or have been hurt from serving us gives me a reason to shop there just to support such positive community service on management's part! 

Shop Rite stores are all over the Delaware Valley/tri-state region, and are valued by many shoppers because they are usually less expensive than the other major area chains, including Pathmark, Super Fresh and Acme.  The Shop Rite I frequent regularly offers wild-caught fresh fish at reasonable prices. 

What is your area, and is Shop Rite there?
