I have seen this place several times but never stopped. Since I decided to skip the gym anyway today, figured it was a good day as any to check this place out. It is called Mikes Discount Foods and is a small shop with a totally random assortment. I am assuming their food is not expired but getting close to the expiration date. I found some cool deals and spent $13 on what is pictured. A giant tub of cherry tomatoes - $1.99, a four pack of red peppers for $1 (they need to be eaten stat), a 5 pack of protein granola bars for $1 and some fresh looking green peppers 3 for $1! I also found McCafe brand Keurig Cups - 18 for $5. I am still super excited about this! Do you have these discount places by you? Have you ever gotten a good deal there?

We have a new store that just opened a few weeks ago. I haven't been there yet, but I understand it will give Wal-Mart a run for it's money.

Wow thats good. Walmart is always a zoo so I tend to avoid it. But they do have cheap stuff.

@maezee Yes they do, though now I do most of my food shopping at Festival. I don't know if they have that store in Minnesota.

Wow that is a great bargain you got there. Nah no discount stores near here which makes it really expensive. I wish they would bring an Aldis here.

We have a place that's called SAVEMORE but I don't think we can really save more from buying there. I find that I can save more money when I buy from membership shopping stores like S&R.

@maezee S&R is a membership shopping store. It's just the name of the store but they sell mostly imported products.

Yeah! I did notice the soda I bought expired back in March and tasted funny. I ended up dumping it out. So if you do find one I guess it would be wise to check dates. Lol!

We have three discount places and they always have something we want @maezee We don't always find fresh produce, but plenty of other items are there.
