Winn-Dixie Shoppers Can Save With Gift Cards

When customers at Winn-Dixie Stores Inc. buy gift cards to a variety of retailers and then use them to make their holiday gift purchases, they can save big. From Nov. 26 (Black Friday) through Dec. 7, shoppers at some of the Jacksonville, Fla.-based grocer’s stores will get $5 off for every $50 purchase in select gift cards from such companies as GameStop, Gap, Lowe’s and Disney.

“Consumers don’t typically think of grocery stores for Black Friday deals, but purchasing gift cards at Winn-Dixie before heading out to shop not only saves them time, but also saves them money on their grocery bill,” noted Winn-Dixie group VP of marketing Mary Kellmanson. “This is one more way to thank our customers for allowing Winn-Dixie to be their neighborhood grocer.”

The grocery chain’s gift card mall offers nearly 100 selections. The deal is good for up to $300 in a single transaction and will be available at stores in Orlando, Tampa, Ft. Lauderdale and Miami, Fla., and Montgomery and Birmingham, Ala. The grocer operates 485 retail grocery locations, including 379 in-store pharmacies, in Florida, Alabama, Louisiana, Georgia and Mississippi.

Additionally, all Winn-Dixie store stores will be open on Thanksgiving Day from 7 a.m. until 4 p.m. for the convenience of shoppers.
