Just wondering who you all are and where you shop.


I'm Jen. I work/shop at the Woodbury, NJ store.

[keltic]

Hi!

I live in Haddon Township, but currently shop in Cinnaminson. The store and the people are nicer. It's worth it.

[daisydog215]

Hey there -
I shop at the Flourtown, PA store and can also go to the Dresher, PA store - no Avenu at either.

Fairview Village, Pa here! Shop at the Acme listed at main street just outside norristown no avenue and they started about 6months ago fully doubling :)

Hi! I am Adria and I normally shop at the Elkton, MD store, but sometimes venture to the Suburban Plaza or University Plaza stores in Newark, DE. :wavehi:

[katytibbs]

I am Karen and I shop at the Middlesex NJ store and sometimes the East Brunswick store- the Middlesex store is the one that tore up my catalinas. (I have emailed Acme corporate, lets see what they say)

[chemwomyn]

Hi I'm Sherri and I primarily shop at the Philadelphia Acme at Holme Circle. Sometimes I'll bounce around to Harbison or the Bustleton Ave. ones as well.

[shannonpa]

Hi, I'm Shannon and I live in Kennett Square, PA. I don't usually shop at Acme, but I just went to the Acme in Avondale and Hockessin, DE last week, so now it is in my rotation!

[kittensmittens]

I'm Cat and I can frequently be found in the self check-out of the Runnemede, NJ Acme. Fully doubling and IPs okay.

[kat184o]

I'm Karen and shop at the Doylestown, PA Acme. They aren't that friendly and don't double IPs.

:wavehi:

[kimmiep621]

:wavehi: Hi - Chris here...Levittown, Pa store.
Its fully doubling to .75, no coupon limit, and yes, they have avenu.

what is avenu? i live in levittown, but mostly use the morrisville acme, i found that the five points one has more stock sometimes though depending on day

[maggiekl]

I'm Maggie and I usually shop in the Limerick, Pa Acme though once in a while I shop at the Phoenixville, Pa store - it has been my experience that the Limerick Acme is more coupon friendly than Phx.

If you log onto acmemarkets.com under save you can enter your supercard number and it will show you some specials that are attached to your card. Say it shows .50 off 2 Dannon Light & Fit you would go in and get 2 yogurts and when you check out after they scan your card it automatically takes the .50 off. Sometimes these items match up well with sales/coupons. If the item is on sale, and it is offered as an item on your avenue, AND there is a manufacturer coupon out for it you can really save a lot on those items.

[copycat215]

Hi Hi, My name is Jenny. I am from Philadelphia Pa, and always shop in the Acme at roosevelt blvd.

oh wow, thanks, i'll have to look into that tonight

[JoanieS]

I'm Jen. I work/shop at the Woodbury, NJ store.

Hi! I'm Joanie and I shop at the Woodbury, NJ store too! Once in a while I will venture into the Mantua, NJ one - if I am feeling brave!

[jlk77]

Hi, I'm Jen and I shop at the King of Prussia Acme. So far, my coupon experience has been great. They fully double and take IPs. Not sure if they have avenu or not. They used to have a machine, but then they took it away? I have printed out my deals the last few times, but haven't gotten anything, so I'm not sure yet.

[fayegreg]

I am Faye - I shop in Mantua if I have to and Woodbury all the time. After this past week I feel I live there.

[Siageah]

My name is Sam, and I'm a coupon addict.

Oh. Ooops. Wrong thread.


I am in Delaware County PA in the midst of a plethora of Acmes. Four I can walk to if I am so inclined. More within a reasonable radius. All fully double. All take IPs. All take Avenu though one or two will not recognize from time to time but CS is always helpful and will adjust.

[healthnutmommy]

Hi my name is Alison and I shop at the Acme in Hamilton Square, NJ. I needed an Acme break after last week so I am just finding this post now. :wavehi:

[tini]

I'm Tini, I also shop at several of the Acme's in Delaware County; the Broomall/Lawrence Park location is the one I frequent most often. They fully double and I've never had a problem with a cashier/CS rep.

[~~Who,Me?~~]

Lisa-I live in Avondale PA, just 3 miles from the DE state line. So mostly I go to the Avondale Acme but sometimes errands take me down into DE so then I go to Lantana Square or Pike Creek. All 3 have Avenu and truly double, including overage, up to 0.99.

If you read my posts or my blog, you know I get lots of dirty looks and hassles from cashiers, but overall it's still worth it for the deals. Pike Creek is the best and friendliest, but it's also the farthest from me. Depending on the deals, DE also works out better because it's a no sales tax state.

[talk2ham.1]

Hi! I'm Melodie and I shop at the Mays Landing, NJ branch. Always crazy busy there, but they are good to couponers!

[ryan]

I'm Ryan :wavehi: I go to the Acme in Somers Point, NJ and Mays Landing, NJ.

[kclg132]

Hi, I am Kim, shop mostly at the Thorndale, PA store, but will go to the one in Exton form time to time. If I am down in the southern end of the county for anything I will go to the one in Avondale.

[drexelgrad2008]

I'm Elesha, and I live in Phila.

I usually shop the City Line Acme, or Lansdowne Ave Drexel Hill. When I'm doing my "lunchbreak deals", I hit the one next to Granite Run Mall in Media, or the brand-spankin-new one in the Concordville Towne Center in Concordville (This is very close to DE for all you PA-DE border folks). :-D

[YouPdWhat]

:bump93: ing up for new members. :smile:

[drmy91]

This is Denise and I shop at Oxford PA and Elkton MD Acmes.

[Theresat]

Hi I'm Theresa and 5 min away from a Stevensville MD Acme and 30 from an Acme with self checkout and really no issues except cats occassionally not printing and cashiers not used to coupons in Easton MD. I've only been to the Centreville MD Acme (20 min away) a few times.

[BusterBrown]

Hi, I am Jodie, and I shop at the millville acme predominantly...but have been known to frequent vineland, bridgeton and even sewell and mays landing depending on which direction i am heading. I know that there is another die hard couponer(Christine) that hits the millville one...as well as 2 flea marketers and a few gas station owners....Thank fully i can order if i get the ad early enuf, and they will do it for me, as I always get the product.

As to the gal who shops at mays landing...the grocery mgr there used to be in vineland..his name is Bob and he is an awesome guy!!!

by the way..i work next door to the acme...for shoprite...LOL Same union!!

[JennHall28]

I'm Jenn and I shop mainly at the ACME in Lansdale, PA. I just found a new one (moved 1/2 hour 4 months ago) in New Britain and man are they much nicer there!!! I am slowly making that my "go to" ACME.
I know this may be a little off topic, but, Jodie (BusterBrown), which is better in your opinion, ACME or Shoprite? I just found out we are getting a Shoprite down the street real soon!!

I am an Acme employee and shop both. I prefer Acme meat and produce and well all grocery stuff depends on $$$$. IMO "the new Acme" is all about custumer service and shoprite is all about people thinking it's the cheapest place to go. JMO thought.

[BusterBrown]

there are pros and cons to both...alot will depend on who the owner is of the shoprite(we are a franchise/coop)....The deals tend to me more plentiful at shoprite, but the coupon policy tends to be better at acme. Generally there are 5-10 deals that make me go...hmm about at acme. Shoprite almost always has more deals. As to the quality of meat/produce..I tend to shop shoprite here, as the acme is much less traveled, thus less turnaround on the items...it may be totally different in other areas. Lancaster Brand meats have always had a great reputation. Do not get too excited if you see triples etc on the shoprite board-they tend to be a north jersey thing, as are dollar doubles. Most down this way are a limit 4 like, doubling .50 to 1.00, .75 to 1.00.

I would love to see more opinions on this...Pookie..which shoprite do you shop at?

West Deptford one. I also live close to Mullica Hill and Gibstown. I work in Woodbury which is one of the busy Acme's.

[editinginprocess7]

Hi, I am Heather in Avondale. I shop Avondale on a bad day, Lantana the most, and occasionally in Glen Mills.

Who, me? We HAVE to have crossed paths before. I live in Avondale 3 or less miles from the border.

I'm Amy. I shop at very small Acme in Narberth. Sometimes I stop by City line Acme or run to Drexel Hill if there's a deal I cannot pass.

Sometime in August, it was the last day of one of the GM $5 BTFE deals, there were two supercouponers at Avondale. One had a printout from a diff website, I don't remember which one, that she was matching up to coupons. The other one didn't. I was wondering if either of those moms was someone from here.

But I don't often see many people with oodles of coupons at any of the stores I go to.

[mbella77]

Oh my! I never checked in. lol I am Michele from Philly and I use the Redlion/Academy store.

[LianneSNJ]

Wow, I've never replied to this thread? Hello:) I am Lianne. I shop in Cape May County NJ.

haha, that *may* have been me. I rarely print out a list but I think I did in August for BC items. Now, if you see me, I will have a pin k case it. I finally had to bite the bullet and buy a new one. The metal rings on my old one literally fell out of the case lol. I hit Lantana and Glen Mills as much as I can.

However, I had a good experience with Avondale's manager tonight. he was really friendly to our family. Props to Rich Simpson.

[~~Who,Me?~~]

See, my next door neighbor works the desk at Lantana, so I rarely go there. I just feel funny, I mean, I'm never doing anything wrong/illegal, but if a cat doesn't print or I need to return the items, I just don't want to go to her, kwim?

So for the most part I stick with Avondale. If there is something else to be had at either Target or Kmart, then I go to Glen Mills or Pike Creek.

[dsilva51]

I never replied either! I am dawn and I shop at the freehold acme and shop rite!

[sweeneycat]

Clifton, NJ --Come on, fess up. I know there are more of us there because they are often sold out of the bargains

[cbacallao]

Hi there, I shop in Limerick and Phoenixville, but sometimes the Exton area on the way home from work.

[jessicatkc]

Hi, I'm Rebecca and I shop at the Fallston, Maryland store :)

Hi Rebecca! Me too!

[jessicatkc]

I'm Jessica and I shop at the Fallston, MD store.

[dominicsmommy]

OK, I have also never replied to this thread..LOL

I shop mostly at Woodbury, NJ and Mantua NJ but have been known if the deal is really good go to Audubon NJ and Beckett NJ:)

Ok, so now I know who to yell at if something is out of stock. :hysterical:

Yet another Karen here! I typically shop at the Clifton Heights Acme, but also frequent the Lansdowne (Bond Shopping Center) Acme or the Broomall Lawrence Park Acme. Thankfully, all are great stores, double Qs to $.99, no limit, and have Avenu. Typically get good CS at all 3 stores, too. In fact, just today at the SCO, the cashier helping me scan Qs was THRILLED that my total ended up hitting $0. Gotta love that!

Hope to see some of my fellow DelCo HCW buddies at Acme sometime! :wavehi:

[SLP99]

Hi! I'm Barb...I shop at the Elkton, MD Acme and sometimes the one in Newark, DE-especially when I'm going for household items b/c there's no tax in DE. If you see a frazzled lady with her own bags, pink binder, and calculator in hand-it's probably me!

[MnM's Mama]

Wow it's been over a year & 1/2 since my first post on this thread!

Still in Fairview Village/Jeffersonville, Pa!
Still shop at the Acme listed on Main Street just outside Norristown.
(they are calling it the Trooper store in the threads)
they fully double & are very nice :)
fyi~ Unfortunately they have been having coupon fraud issues this past summer so they recently put tape over the SC slots.

Twice in the past year we hit the Kop store and they were very nice as well.

[irishsaver]

:wavehi:Hi I'm Catherine and I shop Woodbury & Mantua are my local but on my way home from work I sometimes stop at the one in Haddonfield and Maple Shade. I usually get my early flyer at Woodbury. :wink7:
