Cub's new deal

What grocers should get rid of is those stupid store coupons. I go to the store and see an amazing deal--but only if you have the coupon. Otherwise, you pay more. So off I go for the elusive coupon, only to find there aren't any left. If stores knew how many times I ended up not buying ANY they'd change their policy. Can't you just give it to me for the sales price? Quite obviously you calculated your price carefully to make sure you were turning a profit at that price, or you are selling at or below cost as a teaser.

I'm capable of doing the math. I just get tired of people not saying what they mean. I don't need 10 pizzas, either, thank you very much.

this is why i will not shop at super value- cub...

Signs should be in Spanish. No more confusion.

Math challenged people are the scourge of our society. Supervalue is not on my radar for grocery's or the list for opinions.
Cub has the best produce and variety of foods.

Hey NoDoubt, I wanted to be the first to give you a heads-up. America's traditional voting day has been changed from November 4th to November 5th...see ya at the polls!

I find coupons, buy one get one free, buy one get one half off (this one really annoys me), buy three for the price of five, etc. to be a total crock. Give me the price of one item, don't make me clip coupons, and let me get to the business of feeding my family and budgeting in a simple and straightforward manner. I like where this guy's going!

Grocers and consumers are equally stupid. If a shopper can't do simple math they deserve to be skrued.

What if thay jus cant spel?

Maybe Craig Herkert can tell Obama and his Mao communist sympathizers to stop the FDA Food and Drug Administration's attempts to shut down every Ma and Pop small farm that supplies local Cub Foods with domestically grown veggies. Then again, he is a CEO and probably likes to bend over and grab the ankles for Obama like every other pathetic business leader. The FDA made false accusations against tomato growers last year that nearly put them out of business.

wow you personally knew Cub Hooley? where have you been? First of all that is not even his name..it is John Hooley, second of all he is alive and well...and the guy you refer to as Cub is Cub Davis and the last time i checked with his kid he was doing great also.

Cub has been successfully obscuring unit pricing for years with their "must buy two" stipulation in very small pring within store advertisements. That point, and their dramatic price increases, has sent me looking for alternatives.
This policy change is an excellent decision.

only time you need to buy 2 if it is a coupon item..been that way forever
