Save-A-Lot Food Store

I went to this Save-​a-​Lot today because my Mom found some coupons for really bargain chicken. 39cents/​lb for 2 whole Tyson chickens (limit 2) and $ 2.99 for a 10lb bag of leg/​thigh quarters (limit 2). So basically, I scored 2 whole chickens and 20 lbs of leg/​thighs all for just shy of $ 10!!! That is a real deal — I mean that is enough chicken to make 4 – 5 dinners for the whole family. There was even a coupon for gallons of milk for 99 cents each (limit 2), but it is valid for use next week. 99 cents for a fresh gallon of milk is the cheapest I’ve seen in metro Detroit, post year-​2000!
Overall, this is a very modest store in the more congested/​ethnic/​urban part of Sterling Heights bordering on Warren. It definitely is the opposite of places like Nino’s & Trader Joe’s in terms of look & feel & clientèle. With that being said, it is what it is. You can snag great deals (especially with coupon), and they have a real scaled down mini-​Kroger version of grocery store-​convenience store hybrid items here — so browse around and see if it’s for you. Much of the products cater to the middle to lower-​middle working class of south Sterling Heights & Warren. Personally, I will go back the with coupon deals on items such as chicken, milk, etc., and the store is worth a quick browse.
It does not have EVERYTHING under one roof, but chances are you will find a deal on a few things you need.
Quick tip, check www. save​-​a​-lot​.com for local promotions and even printable coupons. The best deals to be had here that make it worth going to are the ‘with coupon’ deals.’
