In addition, the company offers thousands of weekly specials and accepts manufacturer's coupons. In the NY Metro area, Peapod by Stop & Shop also services many communities in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island as well as the New Jersey and New York suburbs. Peapod by Stop & Shop plans to extend service to additional Manhattan neighborhoods by the end of the year.
