We call the bread outlet “the used bread store.” Their prices are a lot higher than they were two years ago, but still cheaper than Walmart.
For a reason I’ve never learned (and don’t want to ask in case it would make it go away) our local small town grocery store has a rack of Pepperidge Farms bread for 99 cents per loaf. Sometimes there’s nothing there but last time I got seedless rye and hawaiian sweet bread. They also sometimes have hotdog or hamburger buns. They don’t appear to be day-old.
Cheaper than anywhere else for pretty decent quality product.
We went keto 220 lbs ago, so we don’t shop there anymore, but when the kids were home and growing, they were the cheapest carbs in town.
We would stop there after swim practice which ended at 8 am right when they opened. Those kids were so hungry, I feared for my life.
