A Giant giveaway from one of my favorite stores
I’ve been so lucky to have developed some amazing relationships this past year. One of the most gratifying has been that of working with Giant Food.
Giant Food is a chain of over 200 supermarkets scattered throughout Virginia, Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Delaware. Giant’s sister company is Stop & Shop, which is found throughout New England.
I attended several Giant Food-sponsored events late last year, and getting to know Robin Michel, Executive VP and General Manager of Giant, was an absolute pleasure, as was meeting Consumer Advisor Andrea Astrachan.
I’ve learned so much from Andrea, as you can see from the following posts:
- how to save money and time at the grocery store
- how to maintain my sanity during the holiday season
- how to use the Healthy Ideas symbol to make choosing healthier foods effortless
- stress-free (and healthy!) suggestions for Super Bowl parties
- fun ways to celebrate the Inaugural activities with my girls
- how to be ‘egg-stra’ careful when it comes to food safety on Easter.
Giant’s quickly become one of my favorite grocery stores, and I’m not just saying that because I know the VP! It’s just a great store. We were there this past Saturday for a store-wide Easter event, where my 4-year old ran down the aisles looking for eggs, visited with the Easter Bunny, and even brought home a cookie she decorated. It was a lot of fun.
Some other reasons I love Giant:
- Most of the stores in my area have been recently renovated, so they’re bright, clean, and well-organized.
- I can find a greater selection of organic produce at Giant than I can at other stores.
- The store brands are amazing! Definitely competitive with name brands, if not better.
- Their selection of prepared food is great. Yummy rotisserie chicken!
- The handheld scanners that let you scan your items while you shop, and not have to wait as long in line, are something I haven’t seen anywhere else.
- Those fun car carts are in abundance, so shopping turns into an amusement park ride for my girls!
- I take full advantage of the double and triple-coupon promotions in the weekly circular.
- And Peapod is a lifesaver!
