Shopping on a Budget

 

Buy in Bulk

The bulk department has a number of grocery staples. Buying in bulk allows you to buy only what you need, avoiding waste and unnecessary purchases. It’s good for your wallet and allows you to bring your own reusable container from home. Here’s a quick video on how to use the bulk aisle to get you started.

Look for Budget-friendly Brands

Field Day makes a number of grocery items on your list, including non-GMO verified and certified organic pantry staples at a reasonable price. Look for items such as pasta, peanut butter, canned beans, broth, cereal, and more, in packaged grocery. Fill your pantry for less.

 

Shop Sales

Be sure to check out our sales page when making your shopping list. Plan your menus based on what you already have at home and what’s on sale.

The second Wednesday of each month is Wellness Wednesday, when shoppers can enjoy 10% off their favorite wellness items, including supplements, skin care items, soap, protein powder, and more. For shoppers age 62 and up, every Tuesday is Senior Tuesday. Get 5% off your purchase when you tell your cashier that you qualify for the Senior Tuesday discount.

 

Consider ownership

There’s no membership required to shop at Lakewinds. But owners enjoy additional savings with access to special “Owner deal” sales prices (in store only), a monthly 5% discount, and 10% case discounts on special orders. Ownership is a one-time cost of $90 for life — no renewal or annual fees. Most owners find their membership pays for itself within the first year!
