I shop in pa. I bought their extra fatty ground beef, and I didn't like it.
I quickly got tired of the pre made hash brown rectangles, too oily. Tried
mayo, but I'll use any kind, but my favorite is miracle whip. Fresh
veggies ok but sparse. Good buys in nuts and stuff. I always forget to take
my home depot monster shopping bag.

I also use bottom dollar, better produce, more selections, and have pop.
Even had raw peanuts.

But I bought my generator at Aldi, a very good buy.
