Food Prices Have Certainly
Tumbled in the Past Year!
Prices have come down, more or less, in almost every line, but
we believe the public looks with keener interest for reductions in the
grocery line, because they more directly affect the cost of living.
We point with a great deal of justifiable pride to our own
record. We have often told you how we give our customers the
benefit of all market fluctuations here are facts in figures to prove
it indisputa ly. Hardly a week passes that does not witness impor
tant reductions in our prices. This necessarily means sacrifices and
hard work, but we make them cheerfully, happy in the knowledge that
we are helping to reduce living costs for our customers.
Read the table below and you will see that we have done our
share m bringing down prices in the past year, until today many items
in our hundreds of lines are actually down to pre-war levels.
