I go all over the place for groceries. I feel like I haven’t been going to regular supermarkets too much because they seem to be the most expensive. I went in Big Lots for something else and saw they have a lot of the canned goods, pasta, snacks and drinks, etc., there that I normally buy at the supermarket, for much less, so I stocked up. Also found some things at a couple of other discount stores that were a nice bargain, too.
I go to Aldi’s about once a month or so but I started buying our dogs’ food there so I’m there more often now. I wanted to share the prices of things I bought there the other day which I thought were really great (because even there, for a while, they’d been higher).
