Getting the Most for your Grocery Dollar

We went to the new Commissary on 32nd Street in San Diego the other night, and I loved it! Much improved over the commissary that we visited when we were stationed here the last time. As always they have great prices (they had whole ORGANIC chicken for 59cents a pound!). It is HUGE. Most of the isles were so wide that you could easily maneuver 3 shopping carts through them. Not to mention the beautiful produce, and the best meat counter I've ever seen at a commissary. It was great to walk out of with nearly a cart full of food for $92 bucks! Something I haven't been able to do anywhere else in San Diego.

Here's an bit from Military.com wrote up on the new website.
~ The Defense Commissary Agency's (DeCA's) new and improved website at commissaries.com is a great way for commissary shoppers to discover their benefit and stay connected to what's happening in their commissary wherever they are stationed. The website includes a new section that promotes health and wellness and an "Ask the DeCA Dietitian" section where customers can exchange comments with the DeCA dietitian and other users. The website also lists what is on sale in the "Savings Aisle" under the "Shopping" tab. Customers can print a list of all items on sale at their local commissary and find Internet coupons on the "Links" page. The "Kay's Kitchen" section also provides lots of quick, easy and nutritional recipes.
