They have bulk food bins and good prices on produce. Another alternative is Fresh and Easy. They don't have the cheapest prices (but they are reasonable) or widest selection (the stores are small), but they do have everything you could need, even gluten-free and ethnic foods sections. They have $ off coupons in their flyers and online, for example $5/30 and their rewards program is way better than Ralph's program (the current program that is going away). They don't accept manu coupons, only their own. You can stack their coupons so if you have two $5 off $30 coupons and spend $60, you can use both coupons. Hope this helps someone.scrapper alnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13259011.post-16085287867681705032012-03-22T08:35:05.000-07:002012-03-22T08:35:05.000-07:00You have got to try Sprouts!!

The bulk bins are great, and they have fantastic fresh chicken sausage.<br><br>They have great sales on foods and most of their food is all natural. I fill in with Target, which with a coupon, I found that it equaled or beat Ralphs.Qwendykayhttp://www.qwendykay.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13259011.post-81036303343365811072012-03-22T13:23:22.000-07:002012-03-22T13:23:22.000-07:00I definitely will - thanks!I definitely will - thanks!Chief Family Officernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13259011.post-76388839856181810392012-03-22T14:19:13.000-07:002012-03-22T14:19:13.000-07:00DON"T be afraid of Ethnic Markets.

They usually have 2 day specials (Wed and Thurs) with awesome deals. For example, 2/$.99 bananas, 7/$.99 onions, 7/$.99 oranges<br><br>I would only recommend if you grocery shop on a weekly basis bc produce doesn't last for more than a week most of the time.Conpadnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13259011.post-3120887094468718572012-03-22T07:21:52.000-07:002012-03-22T07:21:52.000-07:00Thanks, Al!
