Well, it's September. School is back in session, and so is rush-hour traffic. The new fall television shows are finally on the schedule. And my circulars have stopped coming. Uh-what? It seems the start of September has also triggered a discontinuation of the weekly sales ads normally delivered to my U.S. mailbox.
Granted, my Safeway is so close by, it is going to get my business with or without the mailings. But the other circular-producing supermarkets are not. Like most people in this century, I look for sales, but I can't spend all my time doing that; stores are supposed to come and get me.
Raley's/Nob Hill, I really like your stores. But don't punish me for residing a whopping four miles away. Your "redesigned" website makes it impossible to find the specials in a hurry. Don't you want my in-person business?
I know mailers waste paper and cost money, but misguided businesses, believe me: It is costing you more NOT to send me anything. I hope you get the message.
