Natural Grocers’ 70th Anniversary celebration promises a groovy mix of nostalgia, deals, and giveaways from August 14–16 across all stores.
The family-operated organic grocer will mark its milestone with up to 60% off more than 500 products, free in-store treats, exclusive offers for loyalty members, and a sweepstakes with over 3,100 prizes—including a Mustang Mach-E® Premium or $47,000 in cash.
Three Days of Groovy Deals and Nostalgic Fun
From Thursday through Saturday, shoppers can expect Natural Grocers’ biggest sale of the year. More than 500 popular products will be deeply discounted, including brands like Siete, Bitchin’ Sauce, Garden of Life, and Zum Bars.
On Thursday, stores will serve free snow cones from 4:30 to 6 p.m. Friday follows with free popcorn from 3 to 5 p.m. To close out the event, all stores will stay open 31 minutes later on Saturday to give customers extra time to shop the savings.
Themed around a disco-era throwback, the Natural Grocers 70th Anniversary weekend encourages customers to “boogie on over” for some superfly savings.
Sweepstakes Features a Mustang, Peloton, and $194,000 in Prizes
During the celebration, Natural Grocers will offer customers the chance to enter a massive sweepstakes with over 3,100 prizes valued at more than $194,000.
The top prize is a Mustang Mach-E Premium or a $47,000 cash payout. Other grand prizes include a Peloton Bike and Tread, courtesy of Vega and KAL Vitamins, respectively. Shoppers can also win an Ooni pizza oven, gift boxes, a year’s worth of free groceries, and Natural Grocers gift cards.
Shoppers can enter in-store by filling out the official form between August 14 and 16.
For an added challenge, customers can enter a second contest by counting the disco balls hidden in the August edition of Natural Grocers’ good4u Health Hotline magazine. The winner will receive a $500 gift card.
