“Give Up Tobacco? No Sale.” Karla Ward, Lexington Herald-Leader, January 14, 2008.
“Wegmans is ahead of the curve in the supermarket industry in banning cigarette sales.” “Wegmans markets itself to upscale customers as a grocer that sells fresh, wholesome food, which dovetails nicely from a marketing perspective with the decision to eliminate cigarettes. However, don’t expect other supermarkets to follow suit, cigarettes are too profitable to remove.”
