Hot Tip....99 cent store, the ONE!

Here we are ...a few days after the big Holiday and amazingly there are dozens of turkeys and hams still sitting in the freezers of many of the bigger chains stores! Vons, Albertsons, Ralphs, and Target, Yes,..
Target...

We also have tips for your Health food, Free Range lovers, that can make a big difference in the way you feel!

Hot Tip of the Week:  the .99 cent store in Murrietta off Murrietta Hot Springs Road, next to Big Lots
has a great selection of fresh vegetables, packaged lunch meats, cheeses, milk, sour creams, butter,
desserts, and the lines do form down the aisles!

I have heard and witnessed Monday, Wednesday and Fridays, around 11/12 the food gets delivered, and before the workers can unpack the boxes and fill the freezers they are empty, so the keep re-stocking until its completely gone.  The employees at this store are great about telling you when the next shipment is on its way in!~..Its definitely worth the .99 cents and they also have cheaper items and some more expensive items..and I mean..gallon of milk for 2.99...and Zee 12 pack of Toilet paper for 3.99!  So worth it!

This store is well maintained, stocked and clean!  After you are done viewing the canned goods, the various gift items, food values,  then walk over and just look at Big Lots in Murrietta, the selection of gift items
and food values, drinks, animal food, toys, clothes, furniture!  Its a win win with this nice Big Lots.  Once again, well maintained, clean, and organized!

You can find Christmas items in the Big Logs ...and look hard for some great toy items @ the .99 cent store, stocking stuffers, and great stocking stuffers,...great office products!

Look for the next BLOG about how much and where to get the next great values for your buck!

I look forward to serving your shopping NEEDS and saving your pocketbook from being empty!

Happy Shopping!

Road Map of Food Bargains/Temecula/Murrietta

Food for Less/Inland Empire

Budget Shopping in the Inland Empire is quite a unique and can be a costly experience..if all is shopped at just one store!  Or in time, going from store to store!

I  suggest spending at least four hours and mapping out your route to SAVE less and get MORE for
your money.
Its not cheap living out here in the vast Inland Empire as one would think.. The homes may be
cheaper, but the heat, the a/c to keep things cool, the prices of food, you must have a pool or 
a community center with access to a pool, because the heat is unbearable!  It is either heat or
a few days of RAIN and then that's it.  Heat has taken over..the heat is on the food table as
well.

Feeding a family of two, four, six, eight, gets very costly if you stick to the major food chains
such as the worst of the worst:  Albertsons (avoid at all costs), Vons, Ralphs(only one in the
area).  Barrons (very expensive) Henry's (for healthy eating) Sprouts( stale healthy food). Fresh n
Easy is not so fresh and easy.  Be leary of their fresh food, not so cheap, and not appetizing for table appeal and stomach ingetstion!

Must haves to shop:  Stater Bros, Winco, 99 cent stores, Dollar stores, Smart n Final, Target for
food, Trader Joes.
Shop the sales is the only way a family of 2 to 8 and up can stay afloat!

I am here to guide you to the foods and coupons that will keep you fed, healthy and
in the know of where to find, from week to week, what is on sale, what to avoid, and
the price differences.  Those price differences make it worthwhile to shop at several stores
because the differences are very drastic!  They vary from 2 to 4 dollars difference, from the
same items you may have seen @ Winco, or 99 cent stores.

If you want large amounts then you can shop the larger chains such as Costco, and Sams Club.
This is bulk items and can last you for weeks on end.  But when it comes to fresh and fast food
you need to read and follow my map of shops to save you alot, in combination with coupons,
and this Inland Empire has more coupons than I have ever seen in any city in CA.

So let's take a journey down Food Lane which can be done from Rancho CA. Road , Margarita Road,
Winchester and home. The town of Temecula, Murrietta is in one big circle and getting lost is not an
option.

So follow me...for the Food of the Week deals...Grab your bags, cash, debit cards and let's go!
