Market 32 and Price Chopper have kicked off football season with the all-new Tailgate Club, a six-week promotion running Sept. 6-Oct. 17 featuring savings on gameday brands, new prepared food offerings, weekly deals and prize giveaways.
“Football season brings families and friends together, with food at the center of memories being made,” said Blaine Bringhurst, president of Market 32 and Price Chopper. “Tailgate Club helps our customers make the most of those moments with the quality, value and convenience they count on, along with plenty of fun and excitement.”
A kickoff celebration is set for Sept. 12, with samples from Boar’s Head, Coca-Cola, Cayman Jack and select local products at three locations: Latham, New York (873 Loudon Road); Cicero, New York (5701 East Circle Drive, Suite 100); and Newington, Connecticut (3333 Berlin Turnpike).
‘Greatest of All Tailgates’ giveaway
During the promotion, every purchase of participating brands, including Pepsi, Coca-Cola, Frito-Lay and King’s Hawaiian, enters shoppers into a weekly drawing for a premium prize package. One winner will receive four tickets to see the Buffalo Bills take on the New England Patriots in Foxborough, Massachusetts, on Dec. 6. Other prizes include:
- A $500 Market 32 and Price Chopper gift card;
- A Weber Traveler portable gas grill;
- An Ooni Koda 12 pizza oven; and
- An RTIC 52-quart Ultra-Light cooler.
New gameday offerings
The Schenectady, New York-based grocer is introducing new items alongside its chicken wings and corner-to-corner pizzas, including a breakfast pizza and the Epic Tailgating Sandwich Platter, both available for ordering online and pickup in stores. Snack offerings include Pics chips and dips, ready-to-heat pretzel bites, mozzarella sticks, jalapeno popper platters and stromboli pinwheel trays.
Weekly “Coach’s Pick” deals and recipes will be featured on the Tailgate Club section of the company’s website. The grocer also is partnering with King’s Hawaiian on a slider promotion pairing the brand’s rolls with its fresh ground beef, and shoppers will have a chance to enter King’s Hawaiian’s “Fanning Like a Manning” sweepstakes, to be announced later this month.
Based in Schenectady, Market 32 and Price Chopper operate 128 supermarkets and employ 15,500 teammates in New York, Vermont, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and New Hampshire. The company was founded by the Golub family in 1932.
