BI-LO ~ Other Bi-Lo Triples

I emailed Bi-Lo about the triples program and why SC wasn't tripling when NC, Georgia, and Tenn was. Here's the reply.

Thanks for your interest and support of BI-LO. We are testing triple coupons in some markets. I do not know whether we will continue to do that or to expand that program. But if we do you see it in our ads so be on the lookout for it.
Thanks

bump so everyone can read it since it has the wrong time stamp

Heads up...... it has not been in the sales ads in this area but in the Wednesday paper. I assume that really doesn't matter because you will see it on here.

They probably wont even do it in SC but fingers are crossed.

Get plenty of rest prior to the triples. I swear, I should have lost about 5 pounds with all the running in and out I've done in our local Bi-Lo. This has been an incredible run and I really hope that you guys get the opportunity to participate, too.

I think the REAL reason that they are tripling is because we just had Publix come into this area and the first store opened about 3 weeks before Christmas. The next two are slated to open up later this year and the beginning of next......I know that they have tripled before, but it has been two years since they did and how coincidental that they did it just after Publix opened. If not, like you said, why are not they doing it in a larger area??

But if it's because of Publix, why are they doing it in Blairsville, GA? No Publix anywhere near us! Hey, but I'm not complaining!!!

It's possible that some area are running programs becuase of competition moving into the area.

As the email says some markets are getting triple couples as a test.

Both may be correct even if there's a different reason why.
