Buy Groceries At Dollar Stores

With tough times we are all looking for ways to save money. My local everything cost one dollar store has many food items. I find you can buy flat flour burrito shells, and shredded cheese and pepperoni all for $1.

I take the shell and brown it on both sides in the oven. Pull it out and add shredded cheese and pepperoni and even other items I may have in my fridge. Back in the oven to broil a minute or two, and you have easy, quick, and cheap individual pizzas. The kids love being able to pick their own items.

Just keep in mind many of the foods, toothpaste etc. come from China! I buy greeting card there, crossword puzzle books, nothing which I will be eating, feeding my pets, or putting on my skin. I am on a strict budget like many older citizens, but I take my health seriously, and that of my pets! Sadly China does not have the best record when it comes to safety. Buyer be aware! Cheap is not always the way to go. It may cost you more than you are willing to pay.

I love Dollar Stores, too, but you really have to be careful what you buy there, because... I have found, many times, that other stores (including grocery stores) have much better deals on items (including food) than the Dollar Stores. It really just depends. I check all of my store's local ads to see which have the best bargains, then I plan my route depending on which are in close proximity to each other. That way, I get the best deals on products AND save money on gas!

All clever ideas. I also get orange ginger talapia fish, bbq salmon, ranch dressing, great deals on 2/1.00 veggies, green olives, coffee, creamers, sugar, chips and cookies, teas, eggs, bacon, hot dogs...well, I could go on.
