Wilson's Warehouse, Griffin, GA Date of Visit: 08/27/2021 This was my first visit to this business, but certainly not my last visit. Before we begin I am going to provide a link to the USDA government website explaining what expiration dates really mean, which is completely different then likely 95% of people think. https://www.fsis.usda.gov/food-safety/safe-food-handling-and-preparation/food-safety-basics/food-product-dating Wilson's focuses on purchasing overstock merchandise, stock from companies going out of business, stock from major retail sources who product is about to expire or that has expired. This could be paper/dry goods, vitamins, refrigerated/frozen items, appliances, clothing, and other items I may not have seen. This saves those companies sending it to landfills and wasting it. Wilson's then turns around and sells those items at absolutely incredible low prices. Due to the above they don't have a normal stock of items. The inventory and products will constantly change depending on the lot of goods they buy weekly. Can you say Treasure Hunt each time you visit! Dont let the outside of the building or its simplicity fool you. There are deals in here you will absolutely never, ever find in a regular store you normally shop at. Wilson's is in a location away from major retailing centers. The outside/inside of the building, signage, and parking areas could use a little updating. All of the employees I encountered were very helpful and busy. The inside is divided into two sections. The back area has the most dry goods, restaurant supply items and part of a freezer section. The front portion of the store has a couple refrigerated sections, another freezer section and some more dry goods. One thing to me which was of a potential concern was the freezer section some of the items we partially frozen and not fully frozen. Now this could be from it not freezing properly or it could be due to the product not being transported properly. The items that I did encounter like this weren't of a critical nature that it would have impacted quality though. Quite a bit of what I encountered was larger restaurant size goods or food size cans. Some was hotel overstock food. Examples of what I found. 1 gallon Ken's Honey Mustard, $2.99, 30 count package of brownies with cookie on top 99 cents, 1 gallon frozen chili 2.99, large restaurant size chili con carne 4.99, large tray of milk cake 1.99, large package of diced onions 99 cents, 22lbs of frozen chocolate chip cookie dough 4.99 large package of instant potatoes 99 cents, market street package of beef stew 1.99, and so on. They had much much more than I mentioned, but you will just have to get there and check out this little hidden gem of value. The sign out front does say to bring your own bags and boxes, just an FYI. They do have shopping carts inside. Pro-Tip: I brought my very large ice chest to make sure all my cold items stayed at the right temperature. I filled up a 119qt ice chest. The whole shopping cart stacked very high ended up being only $123.79. Try spending that low of an amount at your grocery store for a whole cart full of items... read more

Always good deals. Coffee, hot chocolate mix, bacon, industrial cans of fruits & veggies.

When I first started going here, This was my little secret. I got so many deals here, I couldn't bear to tell anyone where it was. Oh well, everything must change, they say. Lately the deals have evaporated , or even worse, they have taken to leaving expired items on the shelf! If you pick something up, make sure you check the date, and if it doesn't have one, leave it! This is where I usually get the Industrial size canned good, like peaches, and diced tomatoes. They also had the bomb deals on cereal and OJ. But alas, It seems to not be worth the drive anymore. I can catch a few items if I get there early, but I don't go there unless I'm in the area for something else already. If anyone knows a good place to get scratch and dent, or closeout items, send me a link:) read more

I have shopped at Wilson's through three moves to new locations. A customer for years. The prices on dented cans have gone up--now about the same as regular prices in regular stores. I still go, though, to find deals and unusual varieties not carried locally. Bought ground beef Saturday, $1.59 per pound. It was so lean, I think it was actually ground chuck. I am a fan! read more
