Default Re: Grocery store tricks

Acme Markets here on east coast USA is notorious for placing their 10 for $10 items on non-related end caps. I'm a stickler for the little cereal and oatmeal cups that'll cost ya $2.50 at a cafeteria... they stick them on the end isle of canned goods.

Soda that is on sale is by the freezer section, snack foods (chips and crackers) is by produce. I've found most stores I've visited the "on-sale" items aren't even located in their proper sections so you have to hunt them down. The only time this doesn't apply is when it comes to frozen foods - but even then, the on-sale poultry is segregated from its more expensive brothers
