My favorite is Woodman's but there isn't one close enough to me to shop there regularly yet. I do like Pick n Save, Piggly Wiggly and Aldi combined as 2nd choices. I do double coupons at pick n save to end up with free things sometimes and this really helps the budget. Aldi and Woodmans are good for everyday low prices. more ›
