My visit to WINCO Foods!

Last week, I stopped into Winco Foods.  Excited to see if this store lived up to it's claim of being the "Supermarket Low Price Leader."  I must say, I was pleasantly surprised!

Competition is a good thing for us shoppers.  The more stores, the more competition and I love low price wars.  Winco is set up like a big box store, reminiscent of a warehouse store.  No advertisements, no grocery clerks, you bag your own here.  The prices you see are the prices you get.  This simple philosophy is how they are able to keep their prices so low, and low, they are indeed.

I wasn't really there to shop, but more to observe and wrap my mind around this store.  I'd have to say, about 80% of what I saw was at a lower price at Winco than the other stores.  Sure it's a drive and unfortunately they don't have a West Valley store planned for any time in the near future, so its a store you have to plan to go to.  They do accept manufacturer coupons at face value and sometimes offer coupons on their website at www.wincofoods.com. 

Overall I was impressed and in awe of some of the great deals!  I am definitely going to incorporate Winco into my grocery store shopping list.  With prices as low as I saw, I figure once a month would be well worth the trip!!!

Here's a peek at some of the items I saw:
