I have never seen anything at TJ's or Whole Foods worth the fuss IMO.

We feed a family of 4 now (5  before jr went to college) but best bang for the buck is Kroger for us, we may occasionally go to sprouts but that's about it..

Now if they would bring ALDI to Denver we would be back into the grocery's for under $100 a week again..  

 
I like ALDI, there are actually a bunch kinda near me, but it's difficult to go to during the week due to their limited hours and the weekend...is a bit scary there.  I usually hit up Costco or BJs, tbh, but I'm a single person...so I really only need to go grocery shopping once every 2-3 weeks.

 
we are a family of 5, we shop only at Costco and Fred Meyer.  but we also do not have a Whole foods or Trader Joes.

 
Aldi’s generally set up in lower middle class areas but man were they cheap!

When we moved to Denver we were very “house poor” so we shopped at Safeway, wal mart, Kroger and Costco and put all the receipts in a spreadsheet and for this area Kroger is the lowest overall cost. Even cheaper than wal mart.

We still shop at Costco for bulk meat and specialty items / like there very berry sundaes!

 
Yesssss-I get the best of both worlds!  Long Island is, unfortunately, someplace where the very rich communities are abutting very poor communities, within less than a 10-minute drive, so it pretty much means I have all the Aldi's//Trader Joe's/Whole Foods/C-Town/HMart/etc. within my reach.  Also my nearest Costco and BJs are right across the street from one another, so some weeks BJs will be cheaper for my bulk purchases (yogurt, raspberries, honey, flour, etc.) and then the next week Costco will have suddenly slashed their prices to be a $1+ cheaper.  Plus BJs has gas.

I never realized how much I would think about groceries when I grew up; not to eat, but just to talk about them and their pricing with adults.

 
got the BEST haircut of my life yesterday, today is my last day in the Senate (GOD IS GOOD), and it's the darkest day of the year so things literally are only getting brighter from here. this is the best week i've had in a long time.
