Pick 'n' Save goes Republican

Fully embracing a popular conservative philosophy, and taking notice of Sendik’s down the road, the Franklin Pick ‘n’ Save has decided to compete head on by offering free samples of anything and everything to shoppers.

Today, you had your choice of hot dogs on buns, cheeses, cold veggies, dips, bagel chips, soda, wine, ice cream, fresh bread “baked daily” according to the friendly voice over the PA, and other items I probably didn’t see.

I’ve been shopping at the Franklin Pick for over 16 years. I’ve never seen anything like it.

Yes, competition is a good thing. Just ask the hungry hordes at Pick ‘n’ Save today.

The Pick-N-Save here did the same thing today.  It's part of a promotion they were doing.

Smart move.

I wonder if they'll keep doing it...

Now if only they would stop the idiotic practice of carding everyone.  Got stuck behind a sweet old gentleman the other day and it took him forever to dig out his driver's license.

No kidding!

It's like those bozo's at the airport, frisking the 85-year old woman in a wheelchair.
