United Supermarkets Warms Up Winter with Free Cookware for Guests
Texans can earn 10-piece, professional-grade cookware with everyday grocery purchases
LUBBOCK, TX – United Supermarkets guests now have the opportunity to earn professional-grade cookware at no additional cost while simply fulfilling their everyday grocery needs this winter.
Between now and March 15, guests will receive one bonus sticker for every $10 they spend at any United Supermarkets, Market Street or Amigos location to collect and redeem for individual pieces of a 10-piece culinary set by Thomas Rosenthal.
Guests actually will have three ways to collect their cookware: by redeeming the full number of bonus stickers, by purchasing pieces at a significantly reduced price with half the required bonus stickers, or by purchasing pieces at full retail value.
At the end of the 19-week program, guests can continue redeeming their tickets for specific cookware items through March 29.
“We believe our guests will be extremely pleased with the quality of the Thomas Rosenthal line, and we can think of no better way to thank them for their continued patronage,” said Wes Jackson, chief merchandising officer of United Supermarkets, LLC.
“And, the time of year offers an added bonus, as the cookware would make a terrific Christmas gift as well.”
Items in the 10-piece cookware set include:
- an eight-inch fry pan,
- 10-inch fry pan,
- three-quart sauté pan with glass lid,
- one-and-a-half-quart sauce pan with glass lid,
- three-quart sauce pan with glass lid,
- five-quart Dutch oven with glass lid,
- four-quart stir-fry pan with glass lid,
- 11-inch grill pan,
- three-quart casserole dish with glass lid,
- and an eight-quart stock pot with glass lid.
Guests can find more information about redeeming bonus stickers and the cookware at http://www.unitedtexas.com along with recipe ideas and additional resources for preparing family meals to feed four for under $15. The complete set is now on display in all 50 stores.
