Congratulations to our guest Arabelle Jackson of Rocklin! Arabelle took our Price Survey in August and walked away with a $1,000 Nugget Markets gift card. In her survey, Arabelle compared Nugget’s prices to Bel Air’s, and Nugget’s price total of $73.20 beat Bel Air’s total of $94.43, a savings of $21.23.
“Taking the survey was fun and very informative,” says Arabelle. “But I wasn’t surprised at the results, as that’s one of the reasons why I shop at Nugget – the prices!”
As you gear up for the start of school, make sure healthy snacking is on your to-do list. Kids need to snack, especially after school. Their growing, active bodies and brains need fuel more frequently throughout the day than adults. In fact, 20 to 30 percent of kids’ daily energy needs should come from snacks.
The price of gold (medals) has gone down. Hank Beal, Director of Adult Beverages here at Nugget Markets, takes you on a personal tour to discover some of the best values on Gold Medal Winners of this years State Fair.
Our team of wine stewards just returned from a mind-blowing weekend at Chateau St. Michelle in Washington, where everyone tasted more than a hundred Rieslings from all over the world. It was 3 days of tasting and learning, all dedicated to celebrating the amazing versatility and attributes of this noble white wine.
“It was a Riesling immersion, and we were loving it!” says Hank Beal, Director of Adult Beverages for Nugget Markets. “Many wines were tasted blind with a panel of experts who walked us through the wines, breaking down the unique characteristics and arriving at a conclusion of where the wine was from, Old World or New World area. They were almost always dead on.”
