People usually think of Save a lot grocery stores as being less than a grocery store. Some terrible dirty, step child of a regular grocery store.
It is true that it is physically smaller than most grocery stores. It offers less variety & fewer options to purchase. They carry very few major label foods.
What they do carry is inediblely inexpensive fresh produce, some is even organic. Come on when is the last time you paid $.39 a pould for bananas? Canned goods are generic, but will stand up to most name brands.
They have: cereal, crackers, cookies, household goods, fresh meat, dairy, frozen foods ( the frozen berries are a great value), breads, pet food& much more. They have a butcher, so you know the meat is freshly cut & they have some fantastic prices on their weekly specials, especially meat & produce.
No, I can't do all of my grocery shopping at this store, but if you want to save some money & not miss out on quality, give it a try! Know your prices, everything in the store is not a bargain, some items are higher priced than a big retail market. Do the math, know your prices & shop the sales & it is a win, win situatio.
They only have bags that you can inexpensively purchase, but we should all be taking our own bags to any grocery store to be environmentally conscious. They do accept cash credit or debit cards.
What's a girl to do? Love fresh produce & veggies & who doesn't like to save money, a must in my book. read more
