COVID-19 Updates and Reminders

In line with current state regulations for essential businesses, we are now setting aside one hour per week at each of our stores for seniors and those at higher risk to shop. If you aren’t a senior or at high risk, please plan to visit at a different time than the following:

  • Ambler: Tuesdays, 9-10 a.m.
  • Chestnut Hill: Saturdays, 9-10 a.m.
  • Mt. Airy: Sundays, 9-10 a.m.
COVID-19 Updates

The senior discount will be in effect for seniors who shop during these hours in all our stores, in addition to all regular hours Monday-Friday.

Please note that the customer cap in our Chestnut Hill store is now 15.

Lastly, we’ve also noticed a “rush hour” of shoppers most days from 4:30-5:30 p.m. in our Ambler store. Please be aware that you may have to wait longer if you shop then; if possible, we’re asking customers to adjust their shopping times to cut down on the rush. Visit our COVID-19 Updates page for more info.
