Don't buy: Canned refried beans. Buy: Vegan refrigerator case products. On a plant-based diet? In addition to those jaw-dropping deals on organic grains, Grocery Outlet is a go-to place for vegan cheese and soy chorizo, which can boost the flavor of tofu scrambles or veggie tacos.

Buy with reservations : Fresh meat. Buy: Local brown eggs. Buy: Dairy. While stock is limited, discount grocers feature dairy cases with brand-name yogurt, including Greek-style versions, and dairy-free alternatives. On a recent visit, expiration dates for everything we looked at were far in the future.

Don't buy: Mushy avocados. On a recent visit to Grocery Outlet, we found two-pound bags of tiny avocados that were soft and mushy.

No thanks! Buy: Big bags of potatoes, onions and garlic. Discount grocers are a great place to stock up on produce items with long storage life, like potatoes, onions and garlic. Just make sure to look the bags over closely to make sure that you don't see any signs of decay, and store them in a cool, dry place once you get them home.

Don't buy: Unripe bags of bananas. Buy with reservations : Fresh bread. But if it takes you a week to go through a loaf of bread, the last few slices from the bag may taste dry or stale.

Don't buy: Sugary kids cereals. OK, allow us to get on our soap box for a minute. Discount grocers and dollar stores have a limited selection of cereal, and almost all of it is loaded with sugar and aimed at children.

Sermon over. Buy: Greeting cards. Dollar stores are great places to buy greeting cards. We were surprised at how extensive the selection of cards is at Dollar Tree, where you can find something for every occasion, ranging from birthday to sympathy. Many are printed on heavy card stock, and there are even some pretty clever greetings.

Email is handy, but there are times when an old-fashioned greeting card is more appropriate. Buy: Wrapping paper. Why pay a premium when you can find nice wrapping paper, bows and ribbons at the dollar store.

Buy: Party supplies. Kids birthday parties can get expensive if you go all out with decorations, gift bags and noise-makers. On a recent visit to Dollar Tree, we found a great selection of party supplies in a variety of themes appropriate for both boys and girls.

No party supply store or florist can match that price. Don't buy: Toys made in China. These toys are destined to be played with once before they are discarded or forgotten. Buy: Canned soup.

At Grocery Outlet, you can find boxes of organic mac from Horizon for about percent less than mainstream grocery stores. Buy: Storage containers. They have a wide variety of sizes for portions of leftovers large and small, as well as containers designed to be used in school lunches.

Buy: Gardening supplies. But check out the deeply discounted bags of potting soil, tomato cages and growing stakes that will set you back a lot less. That leave you more money to spend on heirloom seeds and vegetable starts. Camas - NE 3rd Avenue Carson City - North Carson Street Cave Junction - S.

E Oxnard - N. Plus, most surplus stores have quite a few products that are not even food. Many have everything from over-the-counter meds to paper towels! Make sure before you go that you will have plenty of time to look around.

go down one aisle at a time. Even if you come back in the next day, the selection will have changed! Just like in my story above. I encourage you in the next week to scout out and visit your local surplus stores.

Visit them often; their inventory will change all the time, so if there is something there that you might use in the future, get it. I also buy things for my family members, who have even less time to shop there than I do. Take your time, know your prices, and you will be ready to shop.

With surplus stores, you never know what kind of treasures you might find! Post them in the comments! Merissa has been blogging about and living the simple life since and has internationally published 2 books on the topic.

Your email address will not be published. Hey Merissa, Where here in the RC area is this surplus store that has food items that you mentioned in the article above? Thanks, CKay K. In Belle Fourche. The other store I mentioned in this article is in Colorado: There is also a great little one in Wyoming.

We used to have one about 10 miles from us and now we have to go 60 miles to the nearest one. We have an Amish-run place like this near us and the prices are so good. That is a total stock up price for me!

I bought 14 jars. luv this! i do the same with Goodwills! Hope u have a second to check mine out! Some of the things they sell are absolutely terrible! Their pet food is horrid, and I felt awful when I opened the cans and bags and saw how nasty it looked.

Some of the non-perishables are a decent buy, but in general the quality stinks. I could save a decent amount by shopping there but half the stuff would be nearly unusable.

I miss Robbs! Here in Central PA, I am lucky to have one small and two large discount grocery outlets within a 30 mile radius. I typically stop at the closest 12 miles a couple of times a month.

Grocery Outlet I think it used to be called Canned Good Outlet. can be found in a lot of places in CA, ID, OR, WA, Nevada.

Have food, produce, cleaning supplies, gifts, toiletries. I have found some amazing deals on stuff…including health food and gluten free stuff.

Watch for expired food — usually in the perishable, BUT for the most part I have not run into this. Used to live in Kansas City and 2 of THE BEST outlet stores are there. Cargo Largo Independence, MO and Bargain Factory Grandview, MO.

I think Bargain Factory is also in Leavenworth, KS. these places have food, clothing, books, etc. Some people really like this place. I have used a place called Fat Wallet where they give codes for particular bargains. I found an incredible deal once on a computer and also on a pancake compressor and nail gun for my husband..

that was a snafoo discount deal on Amazon where they had a misprint and I got in on the deal before they corrected it. All my husbands contractors friends were SO impressed 🙂. One of the places we go to shop and they are open all year is our local farmers market…. I cleaned it and cut it up so we can use it and it filled two 1 gallon zip lock bags.

First I would like to say that I love going to my local amish store. Try them and if you like it and it is a great price go back in and stock up! There is no sense in stocking up on something that you might not like. There are 3 that I can think of in my area. I relied heavily on these types of stores when I was a struggling single mama.
