Great savings at a new store/Restaurant Week! - check it out

I went to EarthFare in Fairview Park last night (Old Westgate Mall area).  I got $60 of groceries for $27!!!

Before I went I signed up for their weekly email newsletter http://www.earthfare.com/ (which gives you a weekly freebie) and that gave me:

-          A coupon for a FREE whole chicken (value around $10) or a pack of veggie burgers (value $3)

-          A FREE 1 lb fresh boneless, skinless chicken breast from the meat dept. ($5.50 value)

-          These are both with a $10 purchase but it can be the same $10 purchase!

I texted “eat” to 71700 and they texted me a code to show at the register to get $10 off a $25 purchase, (which combines with the above coupons)

I also used in-store coupons that are hanging right in front of products for more savings.

All in all, a very awesome trip to a new store.  Some things are pricey, but most of their prices are fair and the food is good – a lot of organic and gluten free. Nice bulk section and fresh/prepared foods section as well.  If you are vegan/vegetarian they have these AMAZING soy delight vegan nuggets that I tried and loved. Amazing flavors of Thai chili, blackened and a few others. If you ask they will let you sample one before purchasing to see if you like them. Since it’s Lent, this is a nice option for a Friday dinner, if you participate in that.

Well worth the drive to check out and get some freebies.  J
