if you don't count Aldi's. Well, there is a Costco, but we don't buy things in bulk and don't want to pay membership fees just to shop.

ETA: Oops! Forgot Trader Joes, but they're waaaaay up in town, which is why I forget, don't consider them as an option.

We have a friend in AZ who loves them AZSkiffyGeek May 2023 #1
