UPDATE: Clifton Acme is CLOSING - Sad news, but stock up on % off savings

UPDATE:  Acme us now discounting 30% off.  Many products are excluded including meat.  No coupons can be used. 

My husband just returned from his second stocking up trip.  He purchased a bunch of food such as store brand cereal, Kadem grape juice, balsamic vinegar, and much more.  The store's shelves are becoming bare.



So long Clifton Acme!!

So bummed.  One of our favorite stores for so many kosher goods is now CLOSING after 56 years!!  High rent, high prices, and competition from neighboring supermarkets are considered the the culprits of it's demise.  They will shut their doors for good next month.  The supermarket has a kosher deli and kosher bakery as it has a large Jewish population nearby.  We even had custom cupcakes done there for my daughter's bat mitzvah.  They were a fraction of the cost of Brooklyn's kosher Costco (which wouldn't even do custom colors) and local bakeries in NYC.  Check out article in the North Jersey News for details on the closing.

Currently many items are 10% off due to the closing.  This does not include the deli or meat departments. There are other exclusions as well.  We stocked up on albacore tuna (the good stuff) that worked out to be 79 cents a can!!  I suspect that as the time ticks closer to the closing date, deeper discounts will ensue.
