I stopped by my local Federal Way Grocery Outlet store today and MAN oh MAN were there some hot deals! I couldn’t wait to come home, put my groceries away, and share them with you!



Avocados – $0.50 each!

Fiber One Protein Granola – $0.99! This is a fabulous price. The expiration dates were a few months out, too!

I found several kids’ art and craft sets for $4.99 in the toy section. These would make great birthday or holiday gifts.

I found a number of grill-related items on an endcap at my store – and they were all at stellar prices! Bamboo skewers, grill/flip basket, tongs, and more. I was so inspired, I decided to make this month’s Bargainista Blog post all about grilling! (You’ll have to stay tuned for the recipes!)

Peppers, peppers, peppers! All for just $0.99 each! I picked up a bunch of these for my grilling recipe, too.

Mini Cucumbers, 1 lb bag – $1.50. I have seen these specialty cukes for much more at other grocery stores.

Tillamook Yogurt, 32 oz – $1.99

I think this is the first time I’ve seen Kefir at Grocery Outlet! $2.99 is definitely a good price and they had a variety of flavors as well as plain.

Tamarind drink – $0.99. One of the things I love about Grocery Outlet is finding stuff like this you wouldn’t necessarily find at another grocery store.

Mole, 4.4 oz – $0.59.

Kraft Macaroni & Cheese Deluxe, 5-pack – $7.99. That works out to $1.59 per box, which is a VERY good price for this item!

Spaghetti sauce, 15 oz can – just $0.69! Prego jarred sauce was $0.99

One of the ways Grocery Outlet is able to offer you incredible savings is that they are often selling items that have had packaging changes, test products, and overstocks. This “no name” blueberry pie filling for $1.99 made me smile!

Ghirardelli Caramel Hot Chocolate – $0.99. This stuff looked SO GOOD.

Tazo Organic Green Tea + Jasmine – $0.79. I liked that these were only 50 calories per bottle! I picked up a couple at that price.

Yoplait Frozen Smoothie – Chocolate and Banana – $0.99.

Vita Coco Kids Paradise Punch, 6-ct – $1.49. I’d never seen these before, and at that price, I decided to pick up a case for my kids!

You can always find good deals on cheese at Grocery Outlet! I found Alouette Brie Cheese for $3.49 and President Brie (smaller size) for $1.99.

Societe Roquefort cheese for $3.49 – elsewhere this would go for $8.79!

I found these portion-sized frozen fish entrees for just $1.49. There were a BUNCH of them – salmon, swai, tilapia, and more.

Saffron Tea – $1.99.

Organic Canned Beans – $0.99. While I’ve photographed black beans here, they also had Garbanzo beans and Great Northern beans, too.

Vodka pasta sauce for $1.50! This looked so amazing, so I picked one up. They also had a 3-cheese sauce for the same price.

Pacific Natural Organic Free Range Chicken Broth, 4-pack 8 oz each – $1.49! I love that you could use just one of these at a time, without having to open a larger container.

Jellied cranberry sauce for $0.33 each! I don’t think I’ve ever seen cranberry sauce that cheap.

The last few visits I’ve made to Grocery Outlet, I’ve found REALLY good prices on canned tomatoes! $0.69 for a large (28-oz) size of whole canned tomatoes is a solid price!

Ready to see my trip?

I paid $46 for everything pictured – that includes a fair amount of produce, a large bag of pistachios, and some BBQ equipment. My savings today was $32, so that’s a savings of 41% and that’s with no coupons involved at all!
