I love my new grocery store!


Ok, so we've been getting advertisement flyers from this new store near our house. Because I've been shopping at Albertson's for several years now, (I mean before and after Okinawa), I didn't see what the big hoopla was about. Until... they sent us a coupon for 5 dollars of a purchase of 20. I figured, hey, why not? As soon as I got there, I realized that the store was very small. I also noticed that about 75% of the aisles consisted of fresh food like, vegetables, fruits, meats, dairy, and ready to cook meals. About 3-4 aisles have things like cereal and sauces and some canned foods, ect. I realized that when I went to check out, I bought mostly things that did not have preservatives and mostly organic! It occured to me that when I go to Albersons, I end up spending like over 100 on some fresh food, but mainly JUNK! This is because I spend most of my time going up and down the aisles filled with junk food, and by the time I get to the fresh food part, I just get a little because my cart is full! This time my cart was not even half filled, but I have about enough food to last a week AND no junk!
I think overall, buying organic does cost more, but I think I'll save a lot on junk food! ;-)
