Coupons

I used to like clipping coupons from the Sunday paper, but I've discovered that I clip fewer and fewer these days. There just aren't coupons for the products I use regularly. All that changed when I picked up a coupon book at Wild Oats/Whole Foods last week.
Mambo Sprouts coupons are available for free at Whole Foods, or you can go online to get a coupon book mailed to you three times a year.
The coupons are awesome: $1 off Boca products, Kashi cereals and Luna bars; $2 off Kiss My Face moisturizer; $1 off Organic Valley cage-free, organic eggs!
Wow! I've found at least 10 coupons I'd actually use.
Order them online, and print more coupons. (That section of the Web site is under construction.)
Oh, and you can use the coupons anywhere you'd use other coupons, not just at Whole Foods.

Wild Oats/Whole Foods

The Wild Oats in Norwood and Deerfield Township are changing more each day in preparation for their transformation into Whole Foods Markets.
First came additional prepared foods, for which Whole Foods is known. Then came additional produce and flora, along with Whole Foods packaging, baked goods and uniforms for employees. The stores will get new Whole Foods signs by the end of January. More nonperishable, private-label items will appear on store shelves next month.
The Wild Oats Web site is gone, too; you're immediately redirected to the Whole Foods site. I talked to the Mid-Atlantic region's marketing director, Sarah Kenney, and she said there's no national plan for the changeover; each region is progressing at its own pace.
She's coming here soon and we're going to do a store tour. I see a video in our future...
Have you noticed the changes at Wild Oats? Do you shop there?
