A Penny For Your Pots: Jewel-Osco's Professional Cookware Promotion Begins Today





A penny for your thoughts...A penny saved is a penny earned...Find a penny, pick it up, the rest of they day you'll have good luck.   Our cultural obsession with penny wisdom dates back to the Ben Franklin days, when those little copper discs were actually worth something.   

Starting today, pennies can prove their worth once again.   Break open your piggy banks and head to Jewel through January 2011.   It's time to turn your pennies into pro pots.

Jewel has a great professional cookware promotion going on now through January 12, 2011.   Click on the link for full details and to download your own stamp card.   We had a chance to try out the roasting pan with rack and this truly is pro cookware on par with our professional Circulon and Calphalon pans.

Our favorite thing about this promotion, besides the quality of the cookware, is the versatility.   If you have more time than money, you have months to earn stickers ala S & H green stamps, with every $10 increment of Jewel purchases.   It's a thrifty, smart way to get great cookware without spending a lotta cash.

If you have more money than time or hate to wait, you can buy pieces out rightly, or trade in a combination of stamps and cash.   Also, there's no waiting for a particular week to come up for the pot of your choice.   The whole collection is available for the duration of the promotion.

I spent last Tuesday with a collective of other pro-bloggers, exploring the multiple facets of Jewel.   They hosted a fun, fact filled, "Back to Routine" event so we could pass on tips, tasty quick recipes and health back to school info to you.   I'd never been in the gorgeous, spacious Jewel on Kinzie and Desplaines in Chicago's Fulton Market District.   It's one of their newer stores, built around two years ago, and it's quite impressive.


Jewel can't out cheap the big box stores, but they have reinvented themselves with a growing assortment of organic and healthy natural foods, at an affordable price point.   They also run weekly rotating discounts for even better bargains.   Jewel comes out in the lead when compared to most health food specialty stores, like the chain popularly known as "Whole Paycheck".  They're also successfully experimenting with gourmet foods, a varied wine selection, and luxury amenities like an in store chef in 3 locations.


We'll have a lot more gems of information in shorter topical tidbits, but we wanted to let you know about the pro pot promo right away.
