Jewel-Osco To Stop Accepting Expired Coupons

This is one of the last remnants of Jewel-Osco policy that survived the merger with Albertsons. Jewel is vastly different today than what it used to be like.

After Albertsons took over, the stores started to be run like Albertsons. My friends from Illinois tell me how much they hate how their stores have declined. Prices increased and pushy gimmicky sales appeared. If the Jewel name had been eliminated in favor of Albertsons, most of the loyal Jewel customers would have stopped shopping at those stores. Even though Supervalu is now the owner, it still seems like like the stores are being as badly run as Albertsons. Jewel stores are being remodeled to look like Albertsons Premium Fresh & Healthy stores, so now there is very little left of the old Jewel-Osco except for the name.
