American Value Grocery
Complaint 48239 Details

I was listening to WGCI in the early hours of the morning on November 29, 2011 and I heard an ad to call 800-275-0015 for $2000.00 worth of free groceries via a stimulus food certificate. I called to inquire how the program worked and the male representative said that I will receive a voucher that I can use at any store to buy whatever I wanted as long as it's a name brad product so that they can track the purchases and that the only time I will be coming out of pocket is if I purchase liquor, cigarettes, or off brand products. That's when the catch came in........" the cost is $19.95......". I thought it's still a good deal so I did the transaction. I called a few days later to find out when will I receive the voucher and the rep said I should receive it Friday or Monday due to the fact that the transaction cleared on 12/08/11. I said okay. I get the mail today and it's a freaking one year access card to download coupons to save on your groceries. Then the free $50.00 gas voucher is a scam too. You have to purchase $150.00 in order to get that. I want my money back. This is not what I signed up for. I guess it's true what they say, "If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is". What a scam!!!!!!!!
