Good Grief, I Went To A Grocery Store and Hadn’t Been To That One In A While…

@calicuz yeah basics are mostly what I get. I have bought things at the discount store that were not expired and saved a bundle.

@calicuz I bought clearance items for a low price. I was going to buy apple butter at Walmart but it was too expensive. Went to this other store and it was about $1.25 less than Walmart’s price. I also found a few things on clearance at the grocery store. Might as well clearance shop while I was at the store, the boy decided he walked too much in Walmart and sat in the car to wait for me.

@cherokeepatti Walmart is not always the cheapest place for groceries. I'm semi retired and have plenty of time for grocery shopping.

@Crazywaterspring yeah I know. I never even bought a week’s worth of groceries the entire time when I worked at Walmart, I might have picked up one or two items that I needed to make soup or such things but when I wanted to stock up I went elsewhere. I go to Aldi, Crest, Winco, and Big Lots (spices etc sometimes) and Sam’s Club for certain items depending on what I need. I saw too many couples pushing one or two shopping carts overflowing with bags of groceries and complaining about how expensive things were. I think they never thought of comparison shopping elsewhere.

@cherokeepatti Albertson's Winco and Kroger have electronic coupons that help.

Want produce? Shop at a hispanic grocery store. Cheaper and usually nice.

@Crazywaterspring No Hispanic groceries in my city but there are in OKC, one does have reasonable prices on most of their veggies but fruits are usually no bargain.
