Prom-goers and parents of prom-goers: Prom season is near, and we’re searching for this year’s best Price Chopper promposal! Last year we had our first #PCpromposal at our Cobleskill, NY store. One of our Front End teammates was asked to prom by a very creative friend who drew the poster pictured below, complete with a beautiful AdvantEdge card sketch and bag of fresh bakery donuts (“donut” say no). We were so impressed, we decided to create a promposal contest for this prom season! Can you top last year’s Price Chopper promposal? Submit our favorite #PCpromposal photo and you’ll win $500 in gift cards to use towards prom expenses, plus a free corsage & boutonniere for the prom pair designed by our Central Market Florist team! A #PCpromposal should involve a combination of Price Chopper brand products, Market 32 brand products and/or your local Price Chopper or Market 32 store. Ask your potential date to prom at your hometown Price Chopper, or do a #PCpromposal at home with products from our stores! Our internal panel will review each entry for uniqueness, creativity, use of our brands and use of our stores. Maybe you take your potential date to our Roasters Café at your local Price Chopper to enjoy a pizza, with a promposal written inside the pizza box, or offer your potential date a box of PICS Tea with “Hey Cu-Tea, Prom with Me?” message attached. The possibilities are endless! Visit pcpromposal.hscampaigns.com to submit your entry through April 7th! Time is so valuable these days, and people are always looking for ways to become more efficient in how they spend their time. Think about your typical weekend: you go grocery shopping, you clean the house, you do laundry. Before you know it, the weekend is over and you never got to any of those fun, relaxing things you had hoped to do. You begin to wonder “how can I give myself more free time?” Then you remember that office conversation about home delivery for groceries, and how awesome your co-workers said it was. Immediately you think of all the things you hate about going grocery shopping; fighting for a parking spot, dealing with crowds, and dodging shopping carts. Online grocery delivery gives you the power to shop right from the comforts of your own home! Here are a few reasons why you should be using home delivery for your groceries…

6 Reasons to Try Grocery Delivery

1. No waiting in long checkout lines.
2. Easily budget your food spending for the week.
3. Easy meal planning as you browse items from your phone or computer.
4. Unable to lift heavy items? Instacart’s personal shoppers will bring that case of water or large bag of pet food right inside your home for you.
5. You have guests coming very soon, and you realize you forgot something at the store. The oven is on, and you can’t leave the house. This isn’t a horror movie plot.
6. Do you help an elderly family member or neighbor do their grocery shopping? Now they can order right from their home.

Now we’ve got you thinking about all of this free time you’re about to have, right? You finally have the ability to do things like finish that book you started months ago, start that workout program you’ve been talking about, finish that home project you keep putting off, or just simply sit back and relax. We’re excited to offer home delivery in select areas, powered by Instacart. Just visit pricechopper.com/wedeliver to get started. We offer home delivery in as little as 2 hours! Leave those pajamas on and start filling up that virtual shopping cart today!
