Grocery trip with da wife...

[jdinny]

I stepped into family fare ( formerly dans) in NE Bismarck. I stopped at the chocolate milk it was 9.99 for a gallon…the wife and I have 3 boys to feed I left the cart where it sat and walked out. UN fucking believable……. I won’t support that store ever again

These groceries were pretty good this morning

KDM Sandy got you done canning yet. Can get you more if you want. LB

You and your green thumbs!!!! Not done by a long shot. Give me a shout when you can.

Louie, do you eat and drink for free. That would be nice. Not much profit, kind of like farming so they say. LB

yep I get to eat free and drink the "oopsies" but I do work for it too

Where the hell is that at? Heck, I'd buy plenty of Bud Light at the $21 a 30-pack price! I haven't run across a significant discount around the Bis area yet on this shit.

I once split my grocery shopping between Dan's, Walmart, Cashwise, and Sam's Club. After the last couple trips to what was once Dan's, it's hard to justify going there for anything. Just as a stupid example, those simple little "Crack an Egg" breakfast cups were once about $2 at Dan's and $1.80 at Walmart. Last time I grabbed a few off the shelf at Dan's they were over $3 a piece. That's some inflation right there!

 

[Greenhorn]

Dan’s is unjustifiably expensive compared to other local stores. Generic brand there costs the same as name brand at Walmart.

Don't give out your secret shopping spot, shelves will be bare

Yep, it's interesting how one store can be way more expensive than the other one.

Jalapenos at Marketplace are $2.59 a pound and Walmart is $1.29 a pound.

Must be the extra freight cost to drive another 4 miles.

Walmart and other large companies often attribute their success or failure based on the hidden cost of logistics. They, of course, also have much greater negotiating power with suppliers, but the logistics of expanding a market presence for chain/franchise restaurants can make or break a company.

Nah, I'm pretty comfortable in my heterosexuality.

Besides, there's nothing more American than buying whatever a person wants.

don't get me wrong. i have to frequent wally world from time to time. its almost a necessary evil. and i will occasionally grab a few groceries when i am there for something else as i don't have the time or energy to run back across town for a dozen eggs and a carton of milk. but, when it comes to groceries, i do avoid that place like the plague. unless i can't avoid it, i will gladly spend a few more bucks at the local grocery store every trip than give my money to wally world.

Just the kind of treatment I would expect from closeted folks.

I don't know either, I was just replying to Obi-Wan in search of the same info. I know I haven't seen it this low. I generally prefer Bud Select over Bud Light, but can drink this just as well if the price is right.
