Aldi basically has a lot of processed foods on sale. Pineapple and white mushrooms are at a pretty good price.
Foodlion again mostly boxed/bagged items. A lot of which I can’t use. Plus their prices tend to be higher and I can usually find the same item less by shopping around.
Harris Teeter has eggs on sale for 97 cents a dozen with a limit of 4 dozen. This is worth considering, but they don’t have anything else worth making the trip for.
Publix had a lot of items I don’t use on sale. They also tend to be on the pricey side. A second downside with them is that I also have to send someone else in to shop for me at this store. Lidl didn’t have anything grand either. A few things I would pick up on impulse if I were in the store, but nothing worth making a speical trip for.
Amusingly the best store around over all was Piggly Wiggly. However, I would drive almost 45 minutes one way to get there....negating any savings since I don’t need to be in that town anyway.
Walmart has their Great Value canned veggies on sale for 38 cents per can. Not a bad price at all, but I am well stocked. I feel comfortable in saying that I was okay with waiting on all but two of those items and really considered simply not buying anything.
However, my daugther pointed out that she needed cookies or something of the sort to take to school. I decided if I was going to buy those I would go to Aldi. When I was at Aldi I saw that their eggs were only 99 cents per dozen, so I picked up 3 dozen. I also picked up 8 cartons of mushrooms to dehydrate.
Not bad. The eggs will carry on into next month, as will the mushrooms.
The cookies will also, but even if she and my husband munch on them I am okay with that.
I’m not sure I could make them for much less and even if I could I just don’t have the time right now.
As for the mushrooms, 8 packages filled the entire dehydrator.
The finished product:
