I have learned so much from the great folks over at Stop and Shop. They really are committed to helping families out. I’ve been a devoted customer for many reasons: it’s the closest store to me, I am absolutely addicted to the ease of the Scan It! system, and I’ve been generally pleased with the prices and selection.
But recently I visited another store in my area that I always considered to be the bargain place to shop. I hadn’t been there in a while, because it’s on the other side of town, but I used to go in every once in a while and stock up on some staples.
As I walked the aisles, I was shocked at how expensive everything seemed! I now believe Stop and Shop’s promises about lowering prices with their Real Deals and other lower prices — I’ve seen it for myself!
If you have a Stop and Shop (or Giant) in your area, and haven’t shopped there in a while, I invite you back to compare. You might be surprised!
And how is $50 as an enticement? We have one $50 giftcard to Stop and Shop and one for Giant. This contest is limited to U.S. shipping addresses.

We have Giant in our area. There is a new one by my parents house and its an amazing store. Its always so clean and organized. Its really nice to go in a store that has everything you need where you expect it to be. I used to make cakes for family birthdays. Now I order a cake and have a crumb coat put on it. Then I can decorate it myself and still have the wonderful Giant cake, really if you haven’t tried one, you should!

I shop at Giant – one of my favorite stores – for many reasons. I appreciate the double coupons, $$ off of gas, saving points for free turkey, etc. They also have a program in our area where my purchases go towards $$ that is then given to the school my son attends.
I also love the easy scan. What a time saver!

We have a Stop & Shop quite close to our home. I “stop & shop” frequently – have to pass buy the store on my way “out” anywhere. Their flyers include some great recipes that are very cost effective and useful and use many products that are on sale. The flyers are sent in the mail and are convenient to comparison shop.
I shop at Stop & Shop regularly – nice store!

$50 to the grocery store is a lot of money, especially since I am trying to learn how to use coupons and match them with sales,etc. I will say I have not shopped at Giant for at least a year because around here they are rather expensive.
