Grocery Outlet

Grocery Outlet on River Road in Eugene, Oregon
Eugene, OR location

 With people having to squeeze pennies these days, Bay Area-based Grocery Outlet could help save hundreds of dollars.  They have yet to open here in New York State (shock, horror).  There is an indie store in Lyncourt in the former Pfaltzgraff/Syracuse China outlet store, but while there's a number of lesser known brands and surplus goods from out-of-town/state chains, they carry too many expired items like some cornershop, despite a recent article saying how some can still be alright while others should be binned.  The chain are a different animal to the type that ALDI and PriceRite are, but nonetheless keep money in your pocket.  I can mainly just come up with Upstate spots that I know, even though there are likely tonnes of them downstate (I could only snag a few on the outskirts of the region so it doesn't go too far), with Hamilton Township, NJ being even the closest one to the Tri-State right now. Off we go then.
