For the love of anything holy. Then they'll require to install a shitty app to shop at the grocery store in the first place. No, thank you
I shop at Jewel (which is currently under threat of being taken over by Kroger) and they're now doing this thing where there will be, for instance, peaches, under a huge sign showing an incredible deal. Then you look at it and realize that the price isn't discounted at all unless you install a "Jewel App" and use it to "claim" a "digital coupon."
I've been shopping at shitty Jewels all my life and I'm moving to an area where I can choose Jewel or Mariano's. I was super excited to find this out until they announced as part of the merger, they would sell off a bunch of stores most of which are Mariano's including the one I would have started going to. I Reeeeeeally hope the merger doesn't go through.
