There’s a whole new way to shop at Stop & Shop and Giant grocery stores! Although there aren’t any Stop & Shop or Giant grocery stores within 500 miles of me, I had to tell you about this new shopping device because it sounds like such a great idea.
ScanIt! is a handheld scanner that customers can use to scan and bag their groceries as they go. When they are finished shopping, they hand over the scanner, pay and they’re through. In addition to keeping a running cart total for budget shoppers, ScanIt! features exclusive targeted offers for users, usually around a dozen offers per trip. These electronic coupons are only available to ScanIt! users and are selected based on what they’ve bought in the past and what they are doing in the store. What could be better than e-coupons picked especially for you?
ScanIt! is free to member’s of the retailer’s free loyalty club program and is available in more than 150 locations with more opening each week. To see if there’s a location near you, check the map here. If you’d like to see the ScanIt! device in action, watch this video from the Early Show on CBS.
If you live near a Stop & Shop or Giant grocery store and get the chance to try out the new ScanIt! scanner, I’d love to hear what you have to think. I think my husband would love the ScanIt! way of shopping. He had way too much fun registering for our baby shower gifts two years ago. I think he’d be making up excuses to go grocery shopping if we had a Stop & Shop or Giant near us!
