Food World ~ Clearance: Store Liquidation ending soon FINAL 2 DAYS!!!~!!

[BamaLady]

Signs are up in the store now.

Food World will be closed Thursday to reprogram the registers.

Will re-open Friday at 7 AM, and will open at that time until it is over.

Discount (I was told, could be incorrect, but...) will be 25% to 40% off to start. More off as the liquidation progresses.

I was told conflicting accounts of coupon usage...One said no coupons, another said they will take coupons but will not double them.

All pharmacy customers have been transferred to CVS.

The ad for this week is null and void, there are none in the store.

This is it folks, get it while you can. Be there when the doors open.

Good luck!

Is this for all the stores?

[BamaLady]

Don't know yet. Need some folks from other areas to check out their stores and let us know. This is the Pell City store.

I was interested in the Pell City store and thought that was the one you were mentioning but thought I'd check.

When the store in Bessemer went out a few months ago I was so excited to get some good deals...well I was very disappointed. The prices are so high to start with (yeah, I'm tight ) that NONE of the 25-50% off is a deal. Its still cheaper at Walmart than the discounted FW prices! JMO

I'm guessing this is for the stores that are closing, because there is a new ad on-line this week (at least there was last night ending 5/12.)

When Albertsons liquidated some of their stores there were huge signs outside that said "up to 40% off." As the pp mentioned-- I too went in and checked things out, and the prices were jacked up to full retail and most of the items were 10% or 20% off that price. So basically you were paying $4.99 for a box of Froot Loops with a whopping 10% off ($.49). Not cool.

My store is staying open so I'm hoping they keep these triple coupon deals coming for a while longer!

In the printed ad I got today, there were a lot fewer stores listed at the bottom saying "prices good at". Pell City is not listed but McCalla is still on there so I'm praying it will stay open!

[BamaLady]

Yeah, that's my thinking, too. The price, full shelf price of course, is the one the "discount" is going to be taken off of. Still way over Walmart's price, even with that. Sad. This is the kind of thing that helped put them under.

Then, if you wait a day or two for the discount to increase, you run the chance of what you wanted to stock up on being gone.

Oh, well. It might be interesting to stop by Friday and see what's going on, and say Goodbye to everyone.

Just called the McCalla store. They are open today until 5 and will close to reset the computers. She confirmed they were closing that store. Sad to hear that. I shopped there every week.

Does anyone know about any other stores closing besides McCalla??
