New Sales Cycle Announced for Giant Food Stores
As expected, Giant followed Weis Markets in changing their sales cycle. Starting on October 9, 2015, Giant sales will run from Friday through Thursday. Their announcement in the Reading area indicated the circular will be included in the Wednesday Reading Merchandiser. It did not specify what day it could be found in the local Reading Eagle (for Berks County residents.) Some readers are saying their notice states they will get the Giant circular in the mail. So check your ad today, it seems things will vary on your location. Please post in the comments what your announcement said. You could help another reader.
We knew this was coming. How do you feel about it?
Thanks Karen Q. for the photo.

Our Acme sales also run Fri.-Thurs. so I don’t mind this change at all.

Same thing for my Hanover, PA stores. I just wish they’d have it from Thurs through Wed like Weis and other stores around here. I never heard of having sales run Friday through Thurs. Our stores here finally starting online ordering and they get it ready and you can pickup. I tried ordering last night and the site would ask me for my log in for every page I tried to go to. Tonight, I tried again and their site is down for shopping. Guess I’ll just take all my flyers and price match at Walmart! I also heard on a commercial for Walmart that they now have grocery pickup too, but it says nothing on their website.

How do I feel? Don’t like it :-( seems like one more thing to confuse me.

Totally agree!!

Knew about this for almost 2 months (was mentioned in a meeting at my local Giant). Reason given was that the busiest shopping days are Fri-Sun.

I am in Phila, PA and I contacted my store and they confirmed that yes their sales dates are changing to Friday thru Thursday starting in October!
