Very good! Check out Indian stores for great deals on spices. I get my cayenne there. I get the more mild cayenne which has a deep red color. They have cumin seeds whole and other useful stuff. Also beans you have never seen before. Chinese and Asian stores can be good. They have good deals on five pound bags of brown rice from Thailand. Also a red rice from Thailand which is whole grain.

Ethnic stores have tons of bargains, some will sell fresh dill in bulk, cheap, like parsley, they sell cheap coffee beans and bulk teas, unusual vegetables, things that are common to their customers yet expensive in mainstream supermarkets.
