[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I shop at the one in Hyattsville and have actually become quite fond of it.  It's like a bizarro world Trader Joe's!  Same small store, same off brand goods, same unique/odd selection of items - but sooo cheap, more run down, and fwiw that one at least has a definite lower socioeconomic clientele.  Produce is so affordable - it makes me happy to see fresh veggies at such an accessible price point for everyone.  Seriously, I get out of there with a full cart for under $30.  It is INSANE.  I spend $30 at Yes! Organic with,  like, three items.[/quote]

Me too - and I shop at the same one in Hyattsville.  I used to be concerned about "quality of food", but when I started reading labels, I learned the majority of items were the same ingredients as Giant.  You know what got me back in there a couple of months ago?  The canned coffee.  I buy folgers for home because it's cheap and I have a half cup in the am while getting ready for work, but it's not very good.  A friend told me about the coffee in the red can for 5.00.  And ya know what, that coffee has some flavor ooomph, much better than folgers/ maxwell house.  I buy honey, cereal, crackers, cheese blocks, sugar, flour, bags of onions and organic fruit.  About 50.00 per week.  I easily save 30.00 per week.[/quote]
