Grocery Tip #5 - Ongoing Grocery Store Offers

My next tip isn't a totally complete tip, as I've not yet done enough research to give a full list of options.  I will give you what I have, and if you can think of something to add, add it!


Here are some of the ongoing in-store offers you can take advantage of:


Save-on-Foods :
  • 15% off your bill on the first Tuesday of every month
  • Free membership card that offers additional savings on select items
  • Redeem store points for rewards
  • Free baby gift package when there's a new baby in the family
Safeway:
  • 10% off your bill on the first Tuesday of every month, OR 10x air miles
  • Free membership card that offers additional savings on select items
  • Very recent campaign (as of June 2010) to lower prices and compete with Wal Mart
  • Air Miles members can earn points and bonus points on many items
  • Coupon mailing list online
Sobeys:
  • 10% off your bill on the first Tuesday of every month
  • Free membership card to collect points
  • Redeem points for grocery discounts at the till or rewards online
  • Convert Sobeys points to Aeroplan points
Real Canadian Superstore:
  • Online coupons
  • Often some sort of free product or gift card if you spend a specific amount ($150-$250)
  • Member points system, but I believe you need have a PC bank account or credit card in order to join.


Personally, I've found that though the first three stores have excellent quality product, friendly service, and the "cheap Tuesday" option, Superstore tends to beat their prices by a good chunk, especially if you purchase the "No Name" brand groceries.

Any other ongoing store deals that you can think of?
