Copps/PNS Rumors of doubles 2 days per week...Weds & Sat?

[vgehrke]

Happy Wednesday to all...

I did not head to PNS today, but I keep tabs on the comments at Pocket Your Dollars in MN (Rainbow foods/ same as PNS). People in MN are seeing that Rainbow/Roundy's is adding Saturdays as a double daze day starting either this week or next running into April. Signs were posted in store today and supposedly word came down yesterday from corporate.

Did anyone see anything similar here in Wisconsin? I'm in Oshkosh, but would think it would be statewide if they did it.

TIA!

I was at Pick N Save last night in SE WI and did not see anything.

it was also reported by a Wi person on SD. They heard it on the radio. I did not see anything at my Milw store last night.

I asked someone I know that works for Pick/Roundys. She is trying to find out

danimn, please let us know what you find out as my store in Oshkosh, didn't know about it and when the csr checked with her supervisor, the answer was "not at this time."

wondering why there is such a difference between the two states (mn & wi)..

thanks!

oooh, fingers crossed on that one, it would work out nicely for us that way with DH's schedule :)

that is a bummer... perhaps we wisconsinites need to make some noise....perhaps I'll drop a note to Roundy's requesting it... if enough do so perhaps we'll see some action. It can't hurt to ask respectfully....

edited: just sent a little note off through the PNS site under "contact us." Can't hurt to ask :)

Here's what I got back this afternoon from Roundy's ...

"Thank you for your comments and suggestions. You are correct in what you have heard about Rainbow. It is a promotion that potentially may or may not be expanded into Wisconsin stores. Stay tuned for further details and thank you for shopping at Pick 'n Save!"

Ooooo that's better than a big fat NO!!!! Yay. Oh man oh man oh man. That would be sweet. I'm really mad that my PNS stopped taking the one competitor store's Qs that it did. That saved me a lot of $. This would totally make up for it. I think...ha ha.
