Cheap Groceries in Huntington, WV
I'm not sure if it is the increased activity because of the nice weather, or maybe the kids are going through growth spurts, simultaneously, but they are going through a ton of food lately. Keeping the cupboards stocked and sticking to the grocery budget has been challenging.
I am all about cheap groceries. I shop at Aldi and use coupons to keep our grocery budget under control. Recently a new store opened up near me, Global Liquidators. It is located at Big Seven Mile and Route 2 in the old IGA store building. The store reminds me of Big Lots only it isn't quite as big, and the prices are even cheaper. Here are some of my favorite finds there:
Starbucks Whole Bean Coffee - 12 oz. $2
Cereal - $1.50 per box
Cereal - just out of date $0.75 per box
Trader Joes Whole Wheat Flour - 5 lbs. $1.50
Frozen Vegetables - 16 oz. 8 for $1
All the food, except the aisle designated "just out of date," is in date. Some of the boxes are damaged though. They have more than food too. There are health and beauty items, and other household goods. Currently they also have a selection of landscaping items, including fruit trees. As with any other discount store or sale, you need to know your prices. There are some outstanding prices at the store, but some prices are not much different than what I would pay at Aldi.
The store opened a few weeks ago, and in that time my husband and I have become frequent shoppers. I love finding a store (especially one close to me) with cheap cheap prices.
On a side topic:
In searching for a web page for this store, I found that they have a clothing outlet on 4th Ave. To all my local readers, Has anyone stopped there? How is it?

I am struggling with the groceries also. That is probably the hardest one for me to get under control.
Every one has gotten as expensive as every one else around here so its hard to find good deals anymore.
I envy your knack! "}
I can't believe the food deals you get in the USA! In South Africa, food is becoming incredibly expensive, relative to our Rand currency earnings. Very few bargains to be found either!
I've just started a blog to assist with frugal hints and tips - the recession is still hitting us quite hard.
Don't know that you can find anything to use from SA tip caches - and the blog is only a day old, but feel free to visit greaterthansparrows.wordpress - I hope to have loads of tips in a short while.
*still sulking about your prices!*
