What is the co-ops pricing policy?
• The goal of the co-op is to provide value for your dollar. This does not mean that the price on every item will always match the lowest competitor’s price. It does mean, however, that co-ops are consistently checking prices at competitors that offer the same level of quality and service to ensure that the prices represent fair value to co-op members. • The ‘Value Priced Every Day’ program offers everyday low prices on thousands of everyday items. • The very popular Warehouse Sales are offered four times a year at participating food stores. • Many co-ops offer Seniors’ or Family Day discount promotions. • Co-ops stock reasonable quantities of products that are on sale and offer a liberal “rain check” policy. • Co-ops give you multiple item pricing on single item purchases. • Co-ops try to operate in a very cost-conscious manner and return any earnings to members either in cash or as equity.
