Do not and i repeat do not buy avocados from those discount grocery stores such as Food4less. You end up saving about 10% on the price, which is all well and good, but you end up getting an avocado that is about 60% of the size of what you would find at a normal grocery store.

You should also factor in the fact that the size of the big rear end seed doesnt vary much between the different sizes of avocados. so really you're getting way less of the good stuff out of the vegetable for a very slight decrease in cost. not worth it imo.

share your grocery shopping tips and/or trip reports ITT

Small avocados taste better imho. I base this theory on the fact that the big smooth-skinned light green avocados taste like poo poo, but the little dark green bumpy skinned avocados are delicious.

You should buy Whoppers you can get the 99 cent ones of the big boxes and Whoppers taste great. Get 2 or 3 boxes and a big jug of milk and a good movie and have a good time.

Hass avocados are objectively the best avocado. I am willing to entertain contenders but my experience has shown that you'll doubtless be wrong about your weak-rear end, watery bullshit thin-skin avocado knockoffs.

tbh I select avocoados for softness bcause I want to eat the avocado today or tomorrow, not in like a week when it finally gets ripe.

tl:dr: am looking for small soft avocados when I go to the grocery store.

Avoid getting behind Indians in the checkout line, especially in self-checkout - they've usually got a ton of vegetables and so it takes five times longer for them to check out because they can't just scan them.

Become friends with the butcher. He's not going to give you a discount or anything, but he's probably got some good Xbox games.

Don't buy four boxes of lovely wine from the same store, because the cashier will correctly deduce that you're an alcoholic and you want to earn the cashier's respect. Instead, go to four different stores to buy your four boxes of wine.

eh if everything works out, you can find soft medium sized ones. but yeah i'll buy whatever i can eat that day or the next. i've generally stopped buying non-ripe avocados because by the time they're ripe, i've forgotten about them or no longer need them for something, and they've turned brown.

Produce and dry goods are cheaper at the discount store but meat is cheaper at the normal whitey grocery store. Both owned by ingles. The discount store owns because it has two aisles of Mexican foods and it's all dirt cheap. White people suck and don't know the value of a dollar.
