Monthly Owner Discount program

Update: The format of this discount is changing October 1, 2023. Read more here.

Get ready for Monthly Savings!

There’s a big change happening at the Co-op. Beginning May 1, we are replacing our Owner Celebration Weeks with our new Monthly Owner Discount program. That means instead of your discounted shopping trip happening four times a year, you’ll get a discounted shopping trip once a month: 12 times a year!

Your Monthly Owner Discount will let you choose one shopping trip per month to save 10% on your purchase.

So, why the change?

To be completely honest, the drastically increased traffic for an entire week four times a year was a huge stressor on our staff, our supply chain, and our finances. Four times a year we would have a week with sales as high as the week before Christmas (that’s really big), and it’s harder to keep our shelves stocked and our staff & shoppers supported through weeks like that. It’s just not sustainable. This change will alleviate a lot of the chaos that happened behind the scenes to make Owner Celebration Week run smoothly.

Our new Monthly Owner Discount program evens out the workload on our hardworking staff and brings us closer to the financial benchmark set by other co-ops across the country. All while bringing you more opportunities to save money in a way that’s flexible to YOUR schedule!

Want more ways to save?

  • Each month we run sale prices for Owners only! Check the Owner Deals flyer to see a selection of what Owners can save.

  • Bring your own non-disposable container when you shop in our bulk department or buy hot bar, salad bar or coffee from our Fresh Foods department. That saves you 5% on those items!

  • Use our Owners-only Buying Club! For the most part, when you order items by the case you’ll be paying prices that are well below retail prices.

Not an Owner yet? All it takes is 3 minutes and $30 to sign up and you’ll be able to take advantage of these awesome Owner-only savings too! Learn more about that here.

A few notes and answers to FAQs:

  • Your Monthly Owner Discount is valid in the Attic, and that would count as your one shopping trip. You can choose to use it either in the Co-op or in the Attic.

  • Just like our former Owner Celebration Week discounts, this discount will not stack with other discounts.

  • You can choose one shopping trip each month to use your discount, and it will automatically reset on the first of every month.

  • Monthly Owner Discounts are non-transferrable and are ineligible for rain checks.

  • Senior Discount days remain untouched and they will still happen every Wednesday & Sunday.

  • Buying Club purchases are not eligible for your Monthly Owner Discount.
