Now I shop local a lot. I honestly do – I want to support our businesses such as SuperValue, Fields, Peoples, etc., as much as I possibly can. But there are some things that I need to go out of town for. K-cups for our Keurig coffee machine are one thing, and fresh produce is another.
I happened to walk into Thrifty Foods in Campbell River a couple years ago and was hooked the moment I saw all that gorgeous produce arranged so nice and orderly! (It must be the Virgo in me!) Plus the produce guys are a bit on the chatty/flirty side – always makes a gal feel good! (Or it might have something to do with the amount of time I spend lingering over the long English cucumber display….. ?)
And then yesterday I was pleased to discover the new Club Thrifty card. It’s about time, I say! Maybe I can earn enough points to get a coffee maker that I can actually find coffee pods/cups for?!
So don’t forget to fill out your form the next time you’re in Thrifty’s – it takes all of 2 min, hand it in as you go through the check-out, and start saving for whatever you want/need. (You can covert the points to Areoplan miles too, I do believe.)
And don’t forget to say hi to the produce guys!!
