Meijer offers $10 coupons to those vaccinated or needing another dose

BOARDMAN — To encourage COVID-19 vaccinations, Meijer says it will give customers a coupon for $10 off any purchase when they complete the vaccination process at a Meijer store, including the recently opened location here.

The retailer also is offering a separate coupon for $10 off a purchase of $50 or more for customers who previously completed their vaccines with any provider, including Meijer.

"We encourage everyone who is able to receive the vaccine to take this important step and get vaccinated," Rick Keyes, Meijer president and CEO, said in a news release. "When the vaccine rollout began, our pharmacy teams dedicated themselves to keeping our communities safe.

"Their efforts have paid off, but we're not done yet," Keyes said. "We're hopeful this incentive helps tip the balance."

Those taking advantage of this offer will receive the $10 coupon upon receiving their final vaccine dose at a Meijer store.

Customers who already received their vaccine should show Meijer pharmacy workers a completed vaccination card to receive a coupon for $10 off a $50 or more purchase.

In late April, Meijer pharmacies launched a walk-up vaccine program at all locations across the Midwest after administering 1 million vaccine doses at its in-store clinics. To date, the retailer has administered more than 1.3 million doses.

Eligible individuals include students age 12 to 17 accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Meijer offers vaccine appointments. Those interested can text COVID to 75049 or visit Meijer's website.
