Over the years many enthusiasts have shared tips on how to make the most of being a Grocery Outlet Bargain Market shopper, and we want to share them here with you:

• Stop by often. Our inventory changes constantly. Find out when your store receives product and plan a trip on those days.
• When you find something you like, stock up. Many of our bargains are a one-time deal.
• Sign up for email from us, and follow us on Social Media. Sometimes we have special deals or in-store sales events, when the savings get really crazy. We always notify our email and social networking friends first when we do this. You can find us here: Sign up for Email, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram
• Look for what you’re not looking for.  Using a list is helpful for staying on budget, but many expert shoppers tell us they get some of their best deals by staying flexible and ready to act when they see a great bargain.

Grocery Outlet does not accept manufacturer coupons. Our business model and relationships with top name brands allow us to buy products at an extreme discount off regular wholesale cost netting out all allowances, marketing funds (which include coupon redemption) and other expenses normally built into the cost.

This allows us to negotiate the absolute lowest cost and pass those savings directly to our customers by offering deep discounts every day. Many of our products are priced less than you would pay elsewhere with a coupon.

You can sign up to receive Grocery Outlet ads, and information about special buys, wine tastings, store events and Grocery Outlet sponsored coupons via email. Click here to visit our sign-up page: Sign up for Email

Returns with a receipt are gladly accepted within 30 days of purchase for a full cash refund (or credit to the applicable credit/debit card or EBT card) at the store where you purchased the product.

The most exciting part of shopping at Grocery Outlet is finding that amazing deal — the one that makes you say “WOW!” To serve you these “WOW” deals in real-time, we created WOW Alerts, an email program that pulls the best, top-selling, unadvertised deals from your local store and sends them straight to your inbox.

• Have a high savings. To qualify for WOW Alerts, products must be a killer deal.  For most departments, that means a savings of 50% or higher off the original retail price elsewhere.
• Be a top-seller in their department. Wow Alert items are the top-sellers from the previous day.  Customers “vote” with their dollars, and we send you their favorites. So, WOW Alert items are not particularly items that we are promoting – they are being selected by your fellow customers.
• Have enough inventory. WOW Alert items will have enough inventory, so you’ll have time to get to the store before they run out – but be sure to act fast!  These are hot, top-selling items, we can’t guarantee how long they’ll last!

Due to the nature of how we source product, we advertise 1-2 times per month to highlight our everyday low prices. When we put items on an ad, we select the deals that are universal to all our stores and that we have enough quantity to support.

With WOW Alerts, you’re getting new, exciting items delivered straight to your inbox! We know that a lot of our customers wish they could be notified about our hottest, unadvertised deals before they sell out – and we’ve solved that request with WOW Alerts.

Through our Preference Center.  Just opt-in next to the WOW Alerts toggle: Preference Center

Be sure to set your store preference when you sign up.  WOW Alerts are store-specific, so without a store preference set, we can’t send you WOW Alerts. You can also set your frequency and content preferences.

Through our Preference Center. You can change your settings from daily to weekly, and choose which day you’d like to receive your WOW Alerts email: Preference Center
