To our Strack & Van Til Schererville customers,

Our kiosk is currently out of order and will be until Monday afternoon. We apologize for the inconvenience. 
If you're looking to trade in a gift card before then, please visit our Strack Munster or Town & Country Portage locations. You can find their addresses in our Locations page.

Thanks for your patience while we fix this problem!

After a busy few days, we've finally opened all 11 of our Jewel-Osco Alula kiosks! (Woohoo!!)

Thank you all for your patience in getting our kiosks turned on. We hope it was worth the wait. 
So go grab your gift cards and come pay us a visit. After you try Alula, please come back and send us a message. Let us know what you think.

Take a look at our Westmont kiosk below. Not too shabby, right? Come by and get your cash today.
 
 
We are thrilled to announce that we will begin opening our Jewel kiosks tomorrow!! 
The opening will begin with our Schaumburg Jewel location tomorrow at 11 AM.

Mt. Prospect, Elk Grove Village, and Hoffman Estates will all open on Tuesday next week. 
Then the remaining kiosks will open the following day (Wednesday).

We appreciate your patience and are excited that we can finally open our doors (figuratively speaking) to Jewel customers.

If you're in the area tomorrow between 11 AM and 2 PM, stop by the Jewel-Osco in Schaumburg! We'll give you a free Redbox rental and some cool Alula swag if you "Like" or tweet this post and then come in and see us!

Thanks again and we hope to see you soon.
 
 
Our Alula kiosk that is currently located in the St. John, Indiana Strack & Van Til will be moving this Friday! We are relocating to the Town & Country Food Market in Portage, Indiana.
We're excited to offer our services to a new region of northern Indiana. We hope to see you at the Alula in Portage soon!
 
 
For those customers waiting for our Jewel kiosks to open, we are still working with Jewel to get everything ready for the launch. The machines are not yet turned on, but we will continue to keep you posted as we hear more from them.

We thank you for your patience! We're almost ready to go!
