Wegmans makes Thanksgiving dinner

If you're not up to making Thanksgiving dinner this year, Wegmans can help! You can order a pre-made dinner from Wegmans with Turkey and all the fixins. There are even non-turkey meals to choose from.

Wegmans Lowers Prices

In these tough economic times, Wegmans is willing to help out by lowering their prices on hundreds of items throughout their store. I really liked this quote from Danny Wegman... "During difficult times like these, it's okay with us if we make a little less money."

You can see the items listed here. I wonder how they determine which items to drop the prices on. So what do you think? Will this be a big help to you?

Mmm gravy

Who doesn't like gravy on their mashed potatoes? But sometimes it is a pain to make. Wegmans now makes a straight-from-the-box gravy. As the product page says... "So now you can enjoy that bottom of the pan flavor any night of the week! "

Peets Coffee at Wegmans

I was surprised to see that Wegmans is now carrying Peets Coffee from the West Coast. Lucky for any Peetniks in the area!

Finishing Butters

Wegmans is now making a line of finishing butters. They had me at "butter", but these are perfect for putting on top of seafood or steak.

Wegmans Bruiser Dog Food

After thinking about how the Wegman's brand kitty food is named after Danny Wegman's cats, I looked into the dog food too.
Sure enough "Bruiser" was the name of Danny Wegman's dog. The product page says this... ' I loved Bruiser the day we brought him home, and throughout his long life. His health and happiness were very important to me. With Wegmans brand dog food, you can be assured your dog will enjoy a complete and balanced meal - Bruiser loved it! I'm proud to put my name on this bag. - Danny Wegman."

Sadly it seems that Bruiser has passed away, but his name will live on!

Sustainability at Wegmans

The Wegmans website has a great page about sustainability. You can see what Wegmans is doing to help the environment and what you can do too.

There is interesting info like this... In 2007, all Wegmans stores changed from styrofoam fish fry containers to boxes made from natural fibers like sugarcane and grass! Cool!

Aqua-V

I am a serious Vitamin Water addict. I am thrilled that Wegmans now makes their own vitamin infused beverage... Aqua-V. They are so refreshing and more affordable. My favorite flavors are Raspberry Apple and Triple Antioxidants (Acai, Blueberry and Pomegranate). Yum.
