How To Shop SaveALot

SaveALot is an extreme value grocery store. That means that they sell a carefully selected assortment of the items you purchase most frequently, in the most popular varieties and sizes.

For the 53 items on the Simply Frugal shopping list, SaveALot is hands-down the least expensive place to buy them if you can't wait for a sale at Meijer or Kroger.

SaveALot has a monthly, not weekly, flier with great deals that are better than their usual price. For meats and produce, those deals are only available for the first two weeks of the month. I usually shop SaveALot once a month, during the first couple weeks, to take advantage of these specials.

While I'm there, I stock up on the pantry items from the list below. Items on this list usually are not sale items at Meijer or Kroger, so there's no need to wait for a better price. The better price is here at SaveALot, every day.
