Aldi's
Aldi's is known for its

country. You can view some of the grocery selections online. |

Kroger
Kroger specializes in
groceries, but also has other features in their stores, depending upon the
location, such as pharmacies and coffee shops. Each Kroger also has a deli and bakery and most have floral shops. Each week the stores offer

Meijer
Another "super"
store in the supermarket line-up, Meijer is a place where you can cater to
all your shopping needs, including household products, electronics and
clothing. The grocery portion of the store offers thousands of products. You can

Wal-Mart
It's hard to argue that Wal-Mart has great prices on many products and that
includes many of their groceries. While their coupon policies are very
limiting, because they don't double, the store brand "Great Value" often
blows other brands out of the water anyway. Also available are electronics,
pharmacy, toys, video games and more. Read an analysis of whether Wal-Mart is cheapest on groceries or not. |
