Cleveland Economic News: Giant Eagle Does it Again

Newsnet5.com reports that Giant Eagle is ending their double coupon program in the Cleveland and Akron areas. They claim it's what consumers want. I seem to be on a constant Giant-Eagle rant, but I can't help myself. It's what the consumers want? Must be a response to the fact that we moved from first poorest city to the rich ranks of fourth poorest city.

I guess they need all that extra money they save by not paying out for double coupons to build the new Giant Eagle at W. 117th and I-90; you know, the one no one will be able to walk to?

What is Giant Eagle thinking? Families need help in stretching too few dollars already and the doubling coupons was a big help. Shame on Giant Eagle for their greed!

One of the only reasons I shop at Giant Eagle is because of the double coupon program. I am going to have to find some where else to shop for most of my groceries. O-well.
