Since, we live in close proximity, I must ask. Have you tried the Fresh Market place in Trussville? I haven't but am curious.The loading up on those non-perishables is a good idea THS especially when the sales are on. Publix does have some goodies. My kids are always fascinated with the live lobsters. Publix I think has the best fresh fish but again, they are proud of it.

Fresh Markets are the bomb. Love those. Don't have one in Dothan but I've been to the one Monkeytown a bunch. Doubt you save anything there. A lot of specialty items. Usually have a huge selection of the hops and barley beverages.
Nope. We talked about checking it out sometime though.
join a farm co-op...it should save you a few pennies + many of these dudes are organic or all natural. buy a 1/4 steer and a pig too. make your own hams and bacon. but if you eat a lot of bacon this will not last you long. start hunting. deer, turkey and duck. perhaps a goose. our company has a employee garden which helps too especially for winter squash and pumpkin.
It's funny you bring that up. I've been wanting to plant a garden soon. I have a huge backyard, but I also have about a dozen trees, some gigantic, that block the sun. I may have a spot though that would work near the side of the house. I'll watch it when we get another sunny day. When do you start planting for the spring and summer seasons?
Definitely worth a visit. I've been in two and both had big meat and seafood deli sections. I wouldn't look to save $$$ there but it'd be a great place for a change of pace and finding some things you won't normally find in regular grocery stores.
I've wanted to get into hunting, but it's really expensive to get started. I'd need a gun, hunting gear, license, deep freezer, ammunition, and whatever else is needed.
There are a lot of processors in your area that also sell deer and pork meat especially in the Eufaula/Abbeville/Dothan area.
He ain't from around here.
Stupid suggestion. But. If you find the right kind of places? It's cheaper to eat out every night than buy damn groceries. Milk, bread, sandwich meat, chips. Everything else comes from a restaurant.
Dude, Townhall, you live in Auburn now right? Go to the vet school. They sell meat for dirt cheap, due to their reseach/programs for the vet students and what not. Towards the end of my tenure at Auburn they sold their items almost free. We would occasionally eat like kings. http://www.auburnvillager.com/news/article_7b18cb01-b800-5132-af39-553db1a4b637.htmlhttp://www.ag.auburn.edu/ansc/facilities/meats/MeatLabHome.phphttp://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&sqi=2&ved=0CCcQFjAB&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ag.auburn.edu%2Fansc%2Ffacilities%2Fmeats%2Fdocuments%2FPricingforRetail.pdf&ei=QlqwVP2cJMylgwSn8IKQDw&usg=AFQjCNFzA9xaAznQG3uJ1MJTO0IEWVGhrA&sig2=95SNOinTCjj94R55nBbIJg&bvm=bv.83339334,d.eXY&cad=rjaYou are welcome.
