Meijer Announces Sneak Peek into Weeklong Black Friday Deals
Retailer focuses on extending offers across the store; enhanced Meijer mobile app streamlines pickup and delivery options for customers
Nov 12, 2020

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Nov. 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Meijer revealed a sneak peek at weeklong holiday deals that will replace traditional Black Friday sales its stores have offered in recent years. The ads are the latest in the Grand Rapids, Mich.-based retailer's continued efforts to provide customers opportunities to adjust their shopping strategies due to the pandemic. 

The sneak peek confirms sales will begin prior to Thanksgiving, beginning Sunday, Nov. 22 and extend through what is normally considered Black Friday weekend, Nov. 28. The weeklong deals will include items featured as part of doorbuster and daily deals offered in previous years. Additionally, an annual Meijer customer favorite – Santa Bucks – will also be extended, offering customers weeklong savings on two separate occasions during the holiday season. 

"We've worked hard to provide a balance between great prices and the understanding customers will want options for how and when they will shop," said Peter Whitsett, Executive Vice President of Merchandising and Marketing for Meijer. "We hope this sneak peek gives shoppers plenty of time to plan ahead and be able to shop with social distancing in mind as they check items off their lists this year."

Whitsett said the company has also enhanced its Meijer Mobile App to provide seamless access to weekly ads, sale items as well as the ability to shop its stores in multiple ways. Customers can use Shop & Scan for easier checkout experience or use the app to shop online and have their orders fulfilled for pick-up or delivery. The company recently announced that it now offers the service at no charge on orders over $50 and does not require membership. The pickup option offers the same as in-store pricing and access to weekly sales items.
