Wegmans is temporarily reducing the prices on a number of grocery staples due to the recent government shutdown.

The price cuts apply to many foods, including chicken, ground beef, some fruits and vegetables, bread, eggs, pasta and other basics.

The price cuts begin Saturday, February 16, and will continue until Saturday, March 2.

Wegmans says the move was prompted by local United Way partners as a way to help people in need, in particular families who received their SNAP benefits early during the government shutdown.  

The reduced prices are for everyone with a Shoppers Club card.

The full list is available below.
