Cub Foods ends gasoline promotion

Cub Foods ends their alliance with Holiday Gas station after two years of offering coupons. The last coupons have been printed and need to be honored by their expiration date. When spokesperson LeeAnn Jorgenson was asked why Cub decided to drop their program, she said, "The change allows us to provide greater value to our customers in other ways."

That sucks! I love those. It doesn't do much but it defiantly helps.

I didn't know they were getting rid of those, that's a bummer. Those were really nice to have. I hope they start a new type of promotion thing to replace it.

I like how you put a quote in there, it adds a lot of character to the summary. It also gives a small explanation to why they did it. Good job.

They stopped doing coupons!?! I loved them, that's why I went food shopping there. Ahhh I saved so much money on gas from there!

This was a really interesting news story. I thought that you wrote it very well. I liked how you included the quote. That's a bummer that Cub Foods isn't giving out the coupons anymore. Those were great!

*Did the story say anything about the coupons Cub prints for its own gas pumps?
