This week I decided to see what my advantage would be if any by shopping just at Fred Meyers. So here is the verdict.
I spent $105 and saved $22
$48.00 at Whole Foods the next day.
So, I did stay closer to my budget BUT... I did not get as much. I found the produce to be more expensive, so I have been getting about 2lbs of apples and pears a week, where this week I only got 1 pound (they were about double the price). I also didn't get the "stockpile" that I have been. Like at whole foods they have Muir Glen Diced tomatoes 4/$5... then use 4 of their $1 off coupons and get 4 cans for a buck. So I am going to run back into Wholefoods sometime this week and get a few things.. I also forgot bananas while I was out last night... so.. I'll have to get those too.
So... next week I am going to try just two stores... probably Trader Joes and Wholefoods... and see where that gets me. I do like the prices of Trader Joes produce.
