This page sets out the limits of the information published on Hy-Vee Weekly Ad. It is important to read it alongside the guides themselves, because the weekly ad summaries on this site are provided to help you plan your shopping, not to replace the information given in store. Hy-Vee Weekly Ad is an independent weekly-ads and grocery-deals guide, and the points below explain what that means in practice.
Independent, and not affiliated with Hy-Vee
Hy-Vee Weekly Ad is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Hy-Vee, Inc., and it is not an official Hy-Vee website. The same applies to any other retailer mentioned on this site. We do not act on behalf of a retailer, we do not receive instructions from a retailer about what to publish, and we do not speak for any store. If you need an official answer about a store, please contact that store directly.
References to Hy-Vee, and to other retailers, appear on Hy-Vee Weekly Ad only because their weekly ads are the subject of our guides. Mentioning a retailer does not imply a business relationship, and it does not mean that the retailer has approved, checked or endorsed our summaries. Any statement on this site about a retailer should be read as our independent summary, not as a statement from that retailer.
Trademarks belong to their owners
All trademarks, service marks, brand names and logos mentioned on Hy-Vee Weekly Ad belong to their respective owners. Hy-Vee and other retailer and product names are used only to identify the stores and products discussed, so that readers can recognise the offers being described. Nothing on this site grants any right to use a trademark, and no trademark owner is responsible for the content of Hy-Vee Weekly Ad.
Prices, deals and availability vary
Prices, deals and availability can vary considerably from one store to another, and they can change without notice. A price shown in a weekly ad summary may not be the price at your local store, and an offer may end earlier, or be withdrawn, if stock runs out. The following factors can all affect what you actually pay and what is available.
- Store location and region, because offers are often set locally rather than nationally.
- Stock levels at the individual store, including items that sell out during the week.
- The exact dates of an offer, which may differ between stores or be corrected in store.
- Product size, flavour or variety, where a deal applies only to a particular version.
- Any local terms, limits or exclusions applied by the store itself.
For those reasons, a deal described on Hy-Vee Weekly Ad should be treated as a starting point for your shopping list, not as a promise that the same item will be available at the same price wherever you shop. Seasonal items and popular lines are especially likely to sell out or to be replaced by a similar product.
Flyer material is shown for information only
Weekly ad summaries and flyer material on this site are shown for information only. They are our written guides to the current ad, prepared to make the offers easier to read and compare. They are not an offer to sell, a coupon, a voucher or a guarantee of a price. They do not create a contract between you and Hy-Vee Weekly Ad, or between you and any retailer.
How we check, and why errors can still occur
We check the weekly guides each week and aim to correct mistakes when they are pointed out to us, through the Contact page. Even so, errors can occur. Ad material can be updated after we have written a guide, details can be misread, and a store can change a price or withdraw an item part-way through the week. A guide that was accurate when published may therefore become out of date before the week ends.
No accuracy guarantee
Despite our weekly verification, Hy-Vee Weekly Ad does not guarantee that the prices, deals, dates, product descriptions or availability shown on this site are accurate, complete or up to date at the time you read them. We do not accept responsibility for any loss, extra cost or inconvenience arising from relying on a guide without checking the position at your local store. If accuracy matters for a particular purchase, please verify it first.
Please confirm at your local store
Before you travel, or before you rely on a deal for a larger shop, we recommend that you confirm the price, the dates and the availability at your local store. This is especially important for high-value items, for items you need for a particular occasion, and for offers that appear unusually generous. A quick check in store, or through the retailer’s own channels, can save a wasted trip and an unexpected price at the till.
What Hy-Vee Weekly Ad does not do
- Hy-Vee Weekly Ad does not sell groceries or any other products.
- Hy-Vee Weekly Ad does not set prices, stock levels or offer terms.
- Hy-Vee Weekly Ad does not accept orders, arrange delivery or collection, or process refunds.
- Hy-Vee Weekly Ad does not provide customer service for any retailer.
Questions about a specific order, a refund, a store’s opening hours or a retailer’s loyalty scheme should therefore be directed to the retailer concerned. Hy-Vee Weekly Ad cannot change a store’s price, reserve an item for you, or intervene in a dispute with a store, although we are happy to correct a clear error in our own guide when you tell us about it.
External links and store services
Hy-Vee Weekly Ad may link to retailer websites and to other external sites. Those sites are operated by other organisations, and they have their own prices, terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for their content, for their offers, or for anything that happens when you use their services. Please read the terms of any external site before you rely on it or provide personal information there.
Changes to this disclaimer, and contact
This disclaimer may be updated from time to time, for example if the way we prepare the guides changes. The version published on this page is the current one. If you spot an error in a guide, or you have a question about this disclaimer, please contact us through the Contact page, giving enough detail for us to identify the guide and the item concerned. We will aim to respond within a few working days.
