      Markets, Incorporated Announces Third Quarter Sales and Earnings</b></font>
    </p>
    <p>
      ASHEVILLE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ingles Markets, Incorporated
      (NASDAQ:IMKTA) today reported sales increases of 13.1% and 13.8% for the
      three and nine month periods ended June 28, 2008, compared with the same
      periods of the previous year. Net income for the three and nine month
      periods of fiscal 2008 also increased, excluding a gain from a property
      sale in 2007 and a 2007 tax settlement related expense reduction. Net
      income totaled $16.0 million for the three months ended and $41.7
      million for the nine months ended June 28, 2008.
    </p>
    <p>
      Robert P. Ingle, chief executive officer, stated, &#8220;The current economic
      environment is difficult for retailers and their customers. Costs are
      increasing across the board. We are pleased with our sales growth that
      benefited from our customers making more trips to Ingles to purchase
      groceries, gasoline and many other things they need. Our focus is to
      continue to provide quality, service, and convenience while doing the
      best we can to keep prices low for our customers.&#8221;
    </p>
    <p>
      <u>Third Quarter Results</u>
    </p>
    <p>
      Net sales increased by $96.7 million to $835.3 million for the June 2008
      quarter, while grocery segment comparable store sales grew 13.3% for the
      same period. This is the Company&#8217;s 21st consecutive quarter of
      comparable store sales growth. Sales growth was broad-based across the
      Company&#8217;s departments. Customer visits increased 8.9% while the average
      transaction size (excluding gasoline) was approximately 51 cents lower
      than the third quarter of fiscal year 2007. The Company believes these
      figures indicate customers are consolidating shopping needs and
      purchasing ready to eat items instead of restaurant dining.
    </p>
    <p>
      Easter occurred during the Company&#8217;s second fiscal quarter of 2008, but
      in the third fiscal quarter of 2007. Excluding the effect of additional
      Easter sales in fiscal 2007&#8217;s third quarter and excluding gasoline
      sales, grocery segment comparable store sales increased 7.1%. Total
      gasoline gallons sold increased approximately 28% while the average
      price per gas gallon increased 83 cents comparing the June fiscal 2008
      quarter to the same period of fiscal 2007. At June&#160;28, 2008, Ingles
      operated 197 stores and 52 fuel centers compared to 196 stores and
      42&#160;fuel centers at June 30, 2007.

    <p>
      Gross profit for the June 2008 quarter increased 9.0%, to $191.1
      million, an increase of $15.8&#160;million compared with the third quarter of
      last fiscal year. Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, was 22.9% for
      the June 2008 quarter compared with 23.7% for the June 2007 quarter.
      Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased primarily due to higher
      relative sales growth in the gasoline department that has lower gross
      margins and due to cost-driven decreases in fluid dairy margins.
      Excluding gasoline sales, grocery segment gross profit as a percentage
      of sales was 27.3% for the three months ended June 28, 2008, compared to
      26.6% for the same quarter of last fiscal year.
    </p>
    <p>
      Operating and administrative expenses totaled $158.1 million, an
      increase of $16.3 million over the third quarter of fiscal 2007.
      Operating expenses as a percentage of sales were 18.9% for the June 2008
      quarter compared to 19.2% in the June 2007 quarter. Excluding gasoline
      sales and associated gasoline operating expenses (primarily payroll),
      operating expenses were 22.6% of sales for the 2008 quarter compared to
      21.6% for the same period of fiscal 2007. Higher energy costs resulted
      in increased distribution costs, increased store utility costs and
      increased plastic supply costs. The Company chose to absorb much of
      these cost increases in order to minimize the impact of difficult
      economic conditions on its customers.
    </p>
    <p>
      Net rental income and other income totaled $1.5 million for the June
      2008 quarter compared with $2.0 million for the June 2007 quarter. The
      Company&#8217;s accelerated expansion and relocation activities have resulted
      in less tenant space available for lease. In addition, during the June
      2007 quarter the Company sold a shopping center where it had recently
      closed a store. Net proceeds from the sale of approximately $14.0
      million generated a pre-tax gain of approximately $7.9 million. This
      compares with a $110,000 loss on the sale of assets in the June 2008
      third quarter.
    </p>
    <p>
      Interest expense decreased $0.3 million for the three-month period ended
      June&#160;28,&#160;2008, to $11.6 million from $11.9 million for the three-month
      period ended June 30, 2007. Total debt at June 28, 2008, was $666.6
      million compared to $550.6&#160;million at June 30, 2007. New borrowings over
      the past twelve months have generally been at interest rates lower than
      pre-existing and repaid debt.
    </p>
    <p>
      Income tax expense as a percentage of pre-tax income decreased to 29.9%
      in the June&#160;2008 quarter compared to 36.9% in the June 2007 quarter due
      to lower state income taxes, increased tax credits and a lower provision
      for deferred income taxes.
    </p>
    <p>
      Net income totaled $16.0 million, 1.9% of sales, for the three-month
      period ended June&#160;28,&#160;2008, compared with $19.7 million, 2.7% of sales
      for the three-month period ended June 30, 2007. Excluding the $4.9
      million after-tax gain from the fiscal 2007 property sale mentioned
      above, net income increased $1.2 million, or 8.1%. Basic and diluted
      earnings per share for publicly traded Class A Common Stock were $0.68
      and $0.65 for the June 2008 quarter compared to $0.84 and $0.81,
      respectively, for the June 2007 quarter. Basic and diluted earnings per
      share for Class B Common Stock were each $0.62 for the June 2008 quarter
      compared to $0.77 of basic and diluted earnings per share for the
      June&#160;2007 quarter.

      <u>Nine Months Results</u>
    </p>
    <p>
      Net sales increased by $289.7 million, or 13.8%, to $2.40 billion for
      the nine months ended June&#160;2008. Grocery segment comparable store sales
      grew 13.7% for the same period compared with the nine months ended June
      2007. Excluding gasoline sales, comparable store sales for the nine
      months ended June 2008 increased 8.1%. These sales increases are
      attributable to the same factors that drove the third quarter sales
      increases discussed above. Compared to the nine month fiscal 2007
      period, increases in gasoline gallons sold and customer count were 22.1%
      and 9.3%, respectively. In addition, the food category of the consumer
      price index has increased 5.2% for the twelve months ended June 2008.
    </p>
    <p>
      Gross profit dollars for the June 2008 nine-month period increased $49.5
      million, or 9.8%, to $556.2 million, compared to $506.7 million for the
      same period of fiscal 2007. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was
      23.2% and 24.0% for the nine months ended June&#160;28,&#160;2008 and June 30,
      2007, respectively. Excluding gasoline sales, grocery segment gross
      profit as a percentage of sales was 27.1% for the nine months ended
      June&#160;28, 2008, compared to 26.7% for the same period of last fiscal year.
    </p>
    <p>
      Operating expenses increased $43.7 million comparing the first nine
      months of fiscal 2008 to the same period of last fiscal year, but
      decreased to 19.3% of sales for the nine months ended June 28, 2008,
      from 19.8% of sales for the nine months of fiscal year 2007. Excluding
      gasoline sales and associated gasoline operating expenses (primarily
      payroll), operating expenses were 22.3% of sales for the nine-month
      fiscal 2008 period compared to 21.9% for the same period of fiscal 2007.
      In addition to the factors discussed above affecting the third quarter,
      insurance and debit/credit card processing fees have also increased.
    </p>
    <p>
      Net rental income and other income totaled $5.1 million for the June
      2008 nine-month period compared to $5.7 million for the June 2007
      nine-month period. The Company&#8217;s accelerated expansion and relocation
      activities have resulted in less tenant space available for lease. In
      addition, during the June 2007 nine month period the Company sold a
      shopping center where it had recently closed a store. Net proceeds from
      the sale of approximately $14.0 million generated a pre-tax gain of
      approximately $7.9 million. There were no significant property sales
      during fiscal 2008.
    </p>
    <p>
      Interest expense totaled $34.8 million for the nine-month period ended
      June 28, 2008, a decrease of $1.0 million from $35.8 million for the
      nine-month period ended June&#160;30,&#160;2007. Between September 2007 and June
      2008, the Company paid down $9.1 million of mortgage debt and repaid
      $20.6 million of revolving line of credit borrowings. The Company
      financed these repayments and capital expenditures with $153.0 million
      of new borrowings secured by certain store properties and equipment.
    </p>
    <p>
      Income tax expense as a percentage of pre-tax income was 35.4% for the
      June&#160;2008 nine-month period compared to 32.7% for the comparable June
      2007 period. During the second quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company
      settled a tax position under an initiative&#160;offered by one of the states
      in which the Company conducts its operations. As a result of&#160;this
      settlement, the Company reduced its reserve for contingent income taxes
      by $3.2&#160;million and reduced income tax expense by the same amount.

      Net income totaled $41.7 million, 1.7% of sales, for the nine-month
      period ended June&#160;28,&#160;2008, compared with $44.4 million, 2.1% of sales
      for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2007. Excluding the $4.9
      million after-tax gain from the fiscal 2007 property sale and the $3.2
      million fiscal 2007 tax expense reduction mentioned above, net income
      increased $5.4 million, or 14.9%. Basic and diluted earnings per share
      for publicly traded Class A Common Stock were $1.78 and $1.70 for the
      June 2008 nine-month period compared to $1.90 and $1.81, respectively,
      for the June 2007 quarter nine-month period. Basic and diluted earnings
      per share for Class B Common Stock were each $1.62 for the fiscal June
      2008 period compared to $1.73&#160;of basic and diluted earnings per share
      for the same fiscal period ended June 2007.
    </p>
    <p>
      During the June 2008 nine-month period, Ingles completed one new store,
      three remodeled stores, five replacement stores, and purchased 11 land
      parcels for future store development. The Company also purchased two
      shopping centers where it operated leased stores and added eight fuel
      centers. Capital expenditures for the June&#160;2008 nine-month period
      totaled $183.4&#160;million and are expected to be approximately $230 million
      for the full fiscal year, including expenditures for stores to open in
      fiscal 2009. For the balance of the fiscal year, Ingles expects to open
      two remodeled stores, two new stores, one replacement store, and add
      four fuel stations at new or existing stores.
