I know I talk about my produce outlet all the time but I seriously am amazed every time! Actually, there are 2 produce places near my house. I went to the *other* one this time (Produce Junction). It is usually really busy in there and too hectic so Rob hates it but I was on my own and on that side of town so I hit there today instead. Look at what I got!
For $33.75 I got…
2lbs Orange Peppers
4lbs Bananas
2lbs Plums
1.5lbs Lemons
2lbs Broccoli
3.5lbs Carrots
2.5lbs Cucumbers
6lbs Celery
2lbs Brussel Sprouts
2.5lbs Spinach
1lb Kale
3lbs Apples
1 package Mushrooms
2 packages Grape Tomatoes
2 packages Strawberries
1 Pineapple
I’m amazed every time! Rob and I are going to eat well this week!!
That is *is* so cool! I love that. Wish we had something like that. For the same money, I’ve gotten about 1/3 of that — and that was at a co-op!
HOLY MOLY! I jsut went shopping and didnt get anything in this amount for 33 bucks!!! so jealous. Did you get these at a farmers market?
It is an actual store. We have 2 locals chains. One is the Produce Junction which also sells plants and flowers and the other is M&S Produce Outlet which has a deli (where they sell store cooked slice meats!). I am lucky to live smack dab in the middle of the two! Next time I am there, I will try to sneak some photos of the store!!

I seriously need to hit Produce Junction. I just haven’t had the time to journey there…with the 2 new dogs, my whole routine is up in the air until I figure it all out, so needless to say, we are bare in the fridge and pantry department these last few weeks! Hoping with the nicer weather and the hubs broken foot healed, we can take the dogs out before he goes to work together and then I don’t’ have to make 2 trips out with them after getting the girls on the bus. Then I’ll have time to grocery shop the right way again instead of several small trips to the market during the week…it’s wearing on me!!! But I am getting in LOTS of walking! HA!
Its all sorts of chaos at your house!!! I am lucky, I live right between the M&S Produce Outlet and the Produce Junction near me. Both are no more than 3 miles from my house!

That’s a lot of produces! Are you really going to eat all that before it goes bad? I should stop by Produce Junction at lunch one day.
Rob and I will definitely use it all before it goes bad! That’s the bonus of not eating grains, you eat a ton of veggies. Besides, Rob has a smoothie every day for breakfast so that uses a lot!
