** Confirmed by mgr at HT - NO triples week of 7/28 **

[libramom]

I have very good relationships with 99% of my HT employees, including/esp managers. I had a conversation with one of them the other day and I asked her about triples coming up. (This was maybe Monday.) She told me it wasn't this week (the 21st) and then I asked her about the 28th? She wondered about it for a bit and then said she would talk to some other HT mgrs and try to find out something.

Went shopping today (2 hours ago). I saw this same mgr, off duty and shopping herself, and she called me over. Told me they received their shipment of ads for next week TODAY and FOR SURE, NO TRIPLES next week. For sure! She did tell me, though, that it is a GREAT ad, lots of B1G1 and B2G3F deals. She said the front page of the ad is awesome.

All in all this is great news for me, b/c we are going out of town on Sunday for 10 days and I was stressing about missing triples. Now I can relax and have a great vacation, knowing that I'm not missing anything.

FYI - this mgr is betting triples will occur with the weekend of Tax Free Weekend. She said their sales slump hugely during that time and they like to have a big promo to coincide with Tax Free (in NC, anyway) to try to get people in the doors.

Hope this helps everyone out!

Thanks for the heads up. I asked my HT CSR about it today and she had not heard anything either.

Well that is just great! We will be leaving on Wednesday of that week (Aug 4) and won't be back until Sunday. Do they have any Harris Teeters in Vegas?? LOL!!! Of course all of the good q's will expire by then anyway. I was so counting on next week!!! CRAP!

Good to know. If it is the first week in August, that might be good. Aren't there supposed to be 5 inserts in the Aug 1st paper?

That's great for me too. I don't have great coupons right now!

Ooooh, that would be awesome!!!!

Yeah I need another week to get ready! Seems like they are keeping it on the DL this time so Lowes Food doesn't triple before them.

i'm thinking lowes is going to do it too. my guess they'll start 31st, 1st and 2nd

Hi,

Well I have the new ad for week of 07/28/10. Rumors were correct--No Triples this week. Hopefully week of 08/04/10.

Closer to the week of 08/04/10, I will try to get the ad early like I did and post info, etc.

New HT ad is posted for matchups. Enjoy!
