WinCo Foods

To my Organic/vegan/meal peppers, do not underestimate a good WinCo bulk run! This is where I start my shopping before moving up to higher end stores and hear me when I say inflation has hardly hit our household. And I always find I can get 90% of what I need (though stores vary by location in terms of organic produce). I start in the organic veg section and stock up to freeze and store the good greens for later use. Not to mention bulk mushrooms and cheap organic tofu (by a factor of $2-$3 per container my dude, for the exact same brand). Then I head to the bulk bins for beans, lentils, rice, gluten free chickpea pasta/oatmeal, nuts and seeds, fresh ground nut butter, and seasonings. The last thing I do is grab from the non dairy milk/creamer options, a Nancy's yogurt and pasture raised eggs ($5 yo). A fresh loaf of sourdough and maybe WinCo brand sparkling sodas and I'm good. It helps that we don't eat meat/alcohol/dairy milk and processed foods for cost savings. But those are not the people I'm writing to.

I love WinCo because I'm a night owl and they stay open all the time! They don't have the greatest produce, mostly not organic, but the prices are good. They have a decent bulk section and loads of meats and cheeses and frozen foods to choose from. In the frozen foods section they carry Amy's and other organic brands, including gluten free pizza!
