10% off Migros tomorrow

A huge ad in the Blick newspaper today stated... 10% off everything in all Migros and Migros related stores (Melectronics, do it, Obi, etc.). This is only valid for 17.June because Switzerland won against Spain. My husband commented earlier today....

Switzerland winning against Spain in football is like Jamaica winning against Canada in hockey... guess he was wrong

Re: 10% off Migros tomorrow

I don't think very many people expected Switzerland to win, including Migros.

I'll try to think of what I need to buy from there tomorrow, though! 10% isn't a huge discount, but it certainly helps.

Re: 10% off Migros tomorrow

LOL yeah I am pretty sure they didn't expect Switzerland to win which is why I thought it was a pointless advert... 10% isn't much but is still better than nothing. Going to buy something for the little one

Migros wins too: much more turnover tomorrow!

It's cherries, chocolate truffles, ice-cream and lamb for me.

Re: 10% off Migros tomorrow

haha, I win too. I did a bet on Monday, and I said I think Switzerland will win. At that time, everyone were laughing, and thinking I was joking, now I can't wait to see everyone's face tomorrow

Re: 10% off Migros tomorrow

If Spain would have won, would everything in Migros have been +10% today?

Cherries are much cheaper in Denner so 10% discount in Migros probably brings it to Denner level. Swiss probably don't care about the 10% discount. I think all immigrants would be lining up though LOL

I've noticed a lot of the fruits and vegetables from the discount stores taste like crap. It's really hard to know if what you are buying will taste ok. Have honestly never bought any from Denner but the stuff from Aldi can sometimes be sketchy. 10% off Migros cherries sounds like the perfect after Migros restaurant lunch dessert

agreed, I buy onions in Denner but that's as far as I'll go with buying their "fresh" produce.

I do 90% of my shopping at my local Migros (10% at coop) but yesterday they had run out of cherries so in desperation I went to Denner. Yeah the cherries were not that tasty there. That said Migros cherries are hit and miss too. Some days tasty and other days like the Denner ones.

No, the ad listed only the direct Migros "filiale"... this includes:
  • Do it + Garden Migros (Baumarkt)
  • M-Electronics (Elektronik-Fachmarkt)
  • Micasa (Einrichtungsfachhandel)
  • Obi (Baumarkt, Schweizer Obi-Lizenznehmer)
  • SportXX (Sportartikel und -bekleidung)

Re: 10% off Migros tomorrow

Oh, the discount is because of the game?
Thought it was to celebrate Iceland's national day

Re: 10% off Migros tomorrow

they will give 10% off anyway, it's part of marketing gimmick thing. If swiss didn't win, they will find other reason (slogan) like swiss play well etc...

anyway, the important thing is that we benefit

thanks for updating. I will leave some grocery shopping to be done tomorrow instead of today.

Because of the millions of people going shopping for the 10% discount today?
