My Food4Less Shopping Trip (Can’t Beat that price for Potato Salad!)

So, after my Aldi and Walgreens shopping trips, I headed on over to Food4Less to pick up a few last items. And that reminds me, when you’re out & about running errands and shop at more than 1 store, how do you go about keeping your perishable items cool? In the hot summer months, I have a cooler in my car. Earlier this year, I received a perishable food order shipment & it came packed with 2 reusable ice packs and these 2 packs keep my cooler and its contents cool for a long time, I love it! Actually, I like these cold packs even better than the food shipment they originally came with. LOL

So, anyway, on to Food4Less. Even though Food4Less is very close by to me, I don’t shop there very frequently. For me, shopping there has been very much hit or miss. Some trips I’ll find a bunch of bargains and then other times, I won’t find a thing. I’ve noticed that a lot of their products are just not that great a deal & are in fact higher than other stores in some cases. I do like their produce department though, I have found some nice deals there many times in the past including some great markdowns! And what they really seem to excel at are limited one-time deep discounted deals. Some are advertised, most are not. If you’ve shopped at Food4Less too, what did you think? Lots of bargains or not? Do you find it worth the time to stop in regularly to hunt for those unadvertised bargains? I stopped for one of their advertised deals this week (the Reser’s Deli Salad) and here’s what else I picked up:
