Is it just my grocery store or are they all doing it? I have noticed that a lot of times they will have a deal where if you buy the name brand version of a product, you can get the
store brand version of the product for free with an in-store coupon (they usually have them on a tear pad right by both products). This is genius.

Many times people are reluctant to purchase something they aren’t familiar with if they have a tried and true favorite. This way, consumers can compare the two and not be
out any extra money if they don’t like the generic version. I have found several new favorites like this. For example, one of the local grocery stores now has a pure can
sugar version of their store brand cola. I loved the brand name version, so I was happy to try out the store brand version. Surprisingly, I liked the taste better than the national
brand and the price was much better. The store now has a long-time customer for this product for the cost of one free product via that coupon promotion.

I have also found new cleaning products and snack crackers this way. So, whoever came up with this promotion, thank you! Keep up the good work.
