[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know why anyone is including Harris Teeter. Lovely stores, but they are the most expensive. We are now seriously on a budget, and i have found it worth it to go to Aldi for most things. They are half the price of Giant or Safeway. I just bought a cart full of food for $84. Easily $150+ at my local Giant. I don't have time to cut coupoins, I prefer to go to the store where I know most things are cheapest. When I first started shopping at Aldi I heard alot of noise from the kids and DH about the "sketchy food." But ever since my husband went with me and saw how cheap it it, he's a believer.

Here is my ranking for the other stores:

If Aldi's off brands are off-putting, go to Walmart, were the brand names are cheaper. (I can't afford to shop philosophically right now).

Shoppers is next, although the stores are kind of gross. Their produce seems to rot almost before you get home. Magruders is about the same pricewise, but with nicer produce.

Target has cheap brand name food. Their up and up brand households products are well priced, too.

Giant and Safeway are for emergencies only.

Also, remember store brands are your friend  :-).

Remember that Aldi's is a german company that owns Trader Joe's.  I've actually found that b/c the brands are European, they don't have things like high fructose corn syrup.  [/quote]
