Cooking & Baking

I usually go about twice a month for pretty much everything I eat. I'm in Western Washington State, and here is a comparison of what I bought at Winco versus the other neighborhood grocery, a Safeway:

Morningstar Farms breakfast sausage patties, 8 oz.: $3.98 at Winco, $4.49 member price at Safeway, $5.49 nonmember
Treasure Cave crumbled blue cheese, 5 oz.: $3.62 Winco, $5.49 member, $6.49 nonmember at Safeway
Romaine lettuce, regular head: $1.98 Winco, $2.49 Safeway
Fresh strawberries, 1 lb.: $1.98 Winco, $4.49 Safeway
Medium avocado: $0.68 Winco, $1.25 member, $1.49 nonmember Safeway
Arm & Hammer Liquid Laundry detergent, 105 loads: $6.98 Winco, $11.49 member, $14.99 nonmember Safeway
Granulated white sugar, 4 lbs.: $2.94 Winco, $3.79 member, $4.29 nonmember Safeway
Franz raisin and cinnamon English muffins, 6 count, prepackaged: $2.68 Winco, $4.79 Safeway

and on and on it goes. I can cut my grocery bill nearly in half just by shopping at Winco. And I have not had any problems with anything I have purchased at Winco. The only time I buy anything at Safeway is when I cannot get it anywhere else. Example: Organic fresh wheat grass for my cats. Nobody but Safeway carries it. Hope this helps!
