Food City is committed to providing the highest quality products for the best value, everyday. Occasionally, products sold in our stores may be voluntarily recalled by the manufacturer to protect the public from products that may cause health problems or may be misbranded due to incorrect labeling and/or packaging. Please visit our Recalls page for more information.

The "sell by" or "pull" date is the last date the product should be sold. "Use by" or "best if used by" date indicates the approximate last date a product will be of best quality. The "expiration" date gives the last date an item should be sold; and also the last date an item should be used before it is likely to lose flavor and quality. "Food Safety Tips for the Grocery Shopper," published by South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control.

Wash all fruits and vegetables in clean drinking water before eating, not before storing. This includes fruits such as melons and oranges that have skin or rind that won't be eaten.

Fresh cut meat is purplish in color. Oxygen from the air reacts with meat pigments to form a bright red color that is usually seen on the surface of ground beef purchased in the supermarket. The interior of the meat may be grayish-brown due to the lack of oxygen penetrating below the surface.

While the vast majority of Food City Canned Goods are packed in the United States, every domestic canner uses a different system of coding, so there is no universal method of determining the pack date of any can of product. In general, even if the can is not rusted, badly dented on the side seams or top/bottom seals, bulging, or leaking the consumer must use common sense and not use the product that does not smell, look, or taste right. Food City is taking a leadership position in converting to consumer-readable "best if used by" open dating on many of our Food City Brand Canned Fruit and Vegetable items. When buying these open dated Food City Canned Goods, consumers will have a much better idea of the shelf life of the product. For canned goods that do not use open dating, please contact the manufacturer by calling the 1-800 number on the can. For valuable information on storage and handling of a wide variety of food items, please consult "The Food Keeper."

If you haven't found an answer to your question about digital coupons, please see the Customer Service desk at your local store. You can also send us a message here . You will need to have your Card ID/Phone Number and transaction information.

For the most part, Food City ads are the same in all locations. There are, however, a few exceptions that cause some items to differ. They are:

1. Regional preferences. Since Food City operates in several different regions, there are some items that are preferred in some areas that aren't in others. For example, customers in our more southern stores prefer coffee in bags. In the northern regions, they tend to buy more coffee in cans.

2. Special sales. From time to time we will offer special sales in specific areas to celebrate such things as newly constructed or newly remodeled stores, community events, or special promotions. These sales are limited to a specific time period and are in addition to our regular weekly sale.

3. Soft drink price zones. Soft drinks are supplied to us by several different bottlers throughout our marketing area. These bottlers operate independently and can choose which products and packages they want to promote. Therefore, we must vary the offers in our ads to accommodate the different soft drink manufacturer.

4. Local taxes and regulations. Different states and localities have rules that can affect the price of some of the products we sell. For example, taxes on tobacco products are different from state to state. In addition, some towns impose an additional tax on these products. Another example is milk. In Virginia, the department of agriculture regulates how cheaply retailers can sell milk. In Kentucky, they do not.

Disclaimer: Items and prices are specifically intended to apply locally where issue originates. BOGOs are sold at ½ price if single item is purchased. We reserve the right to limit quantities and to correct printed errors. No sales to dealers or competitors. Quantity rights reserved.

Yes, however to ensure quality and freshness to our customers these are monitored and only approved by our produce buying office. Individual stores are not able to purchase product on their own.

Food City can fill a cake order on a few hours’ notice (we've done a few emergency cakes in our time!), but we prefer a 24-hour notice for birthday cakes and up to 5 days’ notice for our Celebrations special occasion custom cakes. Large, elaborately decorated cakes take time to prepare, so please plan appropriately. Schedules for our cake decorators vary from store to store, so visit your nearest Food City bakery to get the best times to place your cake order. Also available are several pre-decorated cakes that can be personalized for any occasion.

Food City sells unbranded gasoline, like other supermarkets, and does not affiliate with a specific brand. Our fuel is purchased from various suppliers that ship from the Gulf Coast through the Colonial and Plantation pipe lines from refiners such as Placid Refining and Motiva.

Because of the way that crude oil is handled in the United States (with all crude oil being mixed in either storage tanks or pipelines) it is basically impossible for anyone to truthfully guarantee that 100% of the product one sells is refined from crude oil sourced in the United States. Food City does purchase all of its fuel from refineries that well over 90% of the crude oil feedstock used is domestically produced. The remaining 5%-10% typically comes from Mexico or Canada.

We can get most any type of item if it is in season and available. Contact either the Store Manager or Produce Manager and he/she can special order it to come in.

Like in most retail situations, it's a matter of supply and demand. If an item doesn't sell well, it may be replaced by a different product that better meets consumer needs. In many instances, our suppliers update their product lines resulting in a product no longer being offered.

Our stores should have a good supply of ad merchandise, but sometimes, unforeseen factors can cause us to run out of an item prematurely, or to be unable to get more of the item in a timely fashion. When this happens, we have two remedies. First, we're happy to offer you a substitute. When doing so, we'll choose an item that's as comparable as possible in terms of size, quality and price. Second, we can give you a rain check for the specific item we're out of. Rain checks generally are good for 15 days, but we'll gladly renew it if it takes us longer than that to get more of the item.

For prompt attention to your concern, please see the store manager or management on duty at the time. All of us at Food City work very hard to always provide the best service. If we have not met your expectations, we do want to know about it. If the manager is unavailable, please contact our Customer Service at 276-623-5100 or use our customer comment form.

A lot of times as the season changes the supply goes up so the price comes down. If supply is tight then the price goes up. This could be caused by severe weather in the growing areas.

Once an offer has been used, it cannot be used again.

Yes. As long as the transaction has not been finalized, you can use the discount in a future shopping trip.

We are proud of the quality of all Food City products. All of our exclusive brand items are guaranteed, or your money back. Our store will be glad to assist you with your concern if you will kindly return the dis-satisfactory product to them.

For 2023-2024 school year, Food City will donate $800,000 in cash through the Food City School Bucks program. The points your school earns will help grow their share of the $800,000 total. It’s like a pie - the size of your school’s slice will depend on how many they have received. Schools should encourage their supporters to register their ValuCard for the Food City School Bucks program. The program will run from September 6, 2023 thru May 7, 2024

First login to your account and select “My Account” at the top of the page. This will bring you to your customer dashboard. From here, select “Update school” and select your favorite school. Be sure to click “Save”!

Every qualifying purchase after registering and using your ValuCard entitles your chosen school to more points, thus a greater share of the School Bucks Challenge awards. The more qualifying purchases, and the more participants in support of your chosen school, the larger the School Bucks Challenge check at the end of the year for your school.

With the School Bucks Challenge, it's easy to earn points! For every dollar spent at Food City* using your ValuCard, one point will be earned for your school. The more points earned, the larger share of the cash your school will receive. All you have to do is link your ValuCard to your school of choice and you'll automatically earn points every time you shop!

*Please note that points are not awarded on purchases of gift cards, fuel, Western Union services, alcohol, tobacco or lottery tickets.

No. The school linked to your ValuCard receives a matching amount of points.

You can easily view your school by simply logging in and viewing the account dashboard at any time.

Food City advertised prices change every Wednesday at 12:01am in our stores. We update at 3:01am on Wednesday with the new sales prices so that you will see the correct sales that correspond with your pickup day. If you are ordering sale items at the beginning of the week for Wednesday or later pickup, you will be charged the price of the items on the day the order is shopped. Your estimated total may vary from the actual purchase total by the change in advertised prices along with the minor price variations for items that are sold by the pound. From time to time data transmissions may cause a price to be incorrect within our online store. We will correct any issue we become aware of at the earliest time possible. Customer service issues that may arise from a data transmission error will be handled through our standard customer service process.

For produce, deli, seafood, and meat items that are priced by the pound, your shopper will select the items that most closely match the weight you wish to purchase. You will be billed only for the actual amount of product selected. Consequently, the total dollar amount of your order may vary slightly.

In the checkout process we will ask you if you would like to allow for substitutions. Our goal is to never be out of stock on any item. However, if an item is out of stock we will make every effort to contact you and substitute with an item as close to the size and price of the item ordered. If you would like to accept our substitution policy, just check the box provided. Please be sure to include your contact numbers so we can reach you.

Our hope is that "Mother Nature" will never prevent you from picking up your groceries in a timely manner. Please let us know if you will be delayed in picking up your order. Furthermore, we will have your Professional Shopper contact you in the event that your order will be delayed due to weather or power outages.

Our online store is always growing. If you cannot find an item but you would like to add it to today's order, please notate this information in the "comments for your professional shopper" section. Please enter as much information as possible about the product and if the store carries the item it will be added to your order. You may also submit a “special request” that will allow you to give the information about the desired product to your shopper, and if the store carries the item it will be added to your order.

Orders containing alcoholic beverages and tobacco (where sold) will be available for pickup or delivery. Prior to handing the customer their order, our employee, or delivery person, must check your driver's license to verify age. If an adult over the age of 21 is not present at the time of pickup or delivery, any alcohol products will be removed from the order. Tobacco purchasers must be at least 21 years of age and have valid proof of age or the tobacco items will be removed from the order. Many municipalities and counties limit the sale of alcohol on specified days and times of day. Our stores will follow the statutes of each state, county, and local entity. Beer is sold in all stores in Kentucky, Virginia and Tennessee. Additionally, wine is sold in all stores in Virginia.
