Meijer Stores

Meijer is a regional American supermarket chain based in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Founded in 1934 as a supermarket chain, Meijer is credited with pioneering the modern supercenter concept in 1962. About half of the company's 181 locations are located in Michigan, with additional locations in Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, and Kentucky. (copied from http://coupon-printable.blogspot.com)

Sweet

I have to say I am a bit disappointed with the lack of comments on the last post. It is hard for me to believe that of the hundreds of people reading this blog, only two have cared to comment on their favorite Meijer products, and one of them doesn't really like Meijer products and the other only commented to share a completely unrelated story. Both comments were still greatly appreciated and those people will be receiving a prize for their efforts. Speaking of last posts comments, MEIJER EXECUTIVES please take note that people in Kansas want awesomeness. They are sick of the same old mediocre products and low quality produce. Really, Meijer doesn't have a lot of competition in the awesomeness department in Kansas. It wouldn't take much to really make an impact. Sorry Kansans, not trying to be rude, I mean you do have the prairie thing going on, and K-State, but you need some help. Like an extreme makeover state edition, with Meijer stores as the center piece. Someone at Meijer needs to get Ty Pennington on board and then things will happen.

Okay, this post is getting off course. What I really wanted to share was a picture sent to me by a co-worker who found it on someone's Facebook site. Sorry I can't give credit to whoever you are.
Have a look.
What I am thinking is that someone at Meijer was on a health kick and was just trying to say to the masses, "You can buy 4oz of sugar wrapped in a fancy bag for 62 cents, or you can get this 5 pound bag of sugar for like a buck." Clearly Meijer continues to be concerned with helping the average consumer save money.

If you didn't comment last time, feel free to continue to do so. I am eager to learn what products at Meijer you have found to be really good. Let me also know if you have decided to replace your candy bar habits with straight up sugar, and how that is going.

I like sugar. i like plain sugar. i like plain Meijer sugar. i REALLY like sugar shaped like little colored bears from Meijer. But i don't like the white ones, even though they are from Meijer.

Meijer does have really good cranberry juice cocktail. And milk. Meijer's coleslaw is also the only kind I will eat except yours, and you haven't made it in 10 million years, so it's a good thing Meijer makes good coleslaw.

As far as sugar, the only time I really eat plain sugar is when I have hiccups. A spoonful of sugar is amazing for getting rid of hiccups.
