Canned Veg

This week, Cub, one of the local supermarkets, has this coupon

Now, I know that it's a bit pixelated, but let's read the details, shall we?

What is on sale?

To me, it seems that any Butter Kernel Vegetables of can size 14.5 oz to 15.25 oz EXCEPT the peas is covered by the coupon.

It seems to me, that select varieties of S&W Beans of can size 15 to 15.5 oz are also covered by this coupon.

Now, when I tried to use this coupon, I was told that only select varieties of the vegetables are on sale.

That just isn't what is written here.

It says any canned veg except the peas are covered by the coupon.

Unfortunately, Cub is going to con a lot of people out of this sale because they have not included all of the vegetable barcodes under this coupon, and unless you're watching, you're going to pay full price.  If you bought 12, like is indicated here on the coupon, you will be losing $6- just because Cub is either dishonest, or didn't hire a marketing person who understands and can write English.

So, if you haven't gone yet, this is your opportunity to give your local store a grammar lesson.

...(and get the high-end canned veg for $0.49/can)
