Supermarket giant Wegmans announced a freeze on prices for more than 60 products families buy most during the fall, effective this Sunday through Dec. 31.
Even if costs go up for these products, Wegmans promises not to increase the retail price during this period, the company said.
“It appeared early in the year that food costs would stabilize, but then the drought. There’s so much uncertainty. Planning and budgeting are crucial for families, and it’s made easier when they can count on prices for an extended period of time,” said Wegmans president Colleen Wegman. “What you save at the grocery store should more than offset what you pay at the pump.”
