Where can I get the biggest bang for my buck? I'll be reading this before I head out in the morning.

We don't use 3 of those stores so no good comparison. Dollar store is the best for our three

Do not buy WalMart canned vegetables if you plan on storing for any amount of time. Their tin coating on their steel cans is quite thin and tends to rust.
Good to know! If I'm forced to go that route I'll wipe the ends with peanut oil.
I'm talking rust from the inside out. Ask me how I know!
Yikes. screw Walmart. this stuff will hopefully be stored 3-5 years before being eaten. I noticed some rust spots on stuff when I re arranged everything the other night, yup, sure enough. most of it is Wally world!
I agree on the Walmart canned veggies, stay away. The cans are crap, IMO, and the the contents not much better. We bought a few flats and after trying them decided to eat them up, we are just about out of them now. It will cost me an extra dollar to get them at our regular store @ 4 flats.
Salvage grocery stores for me. Dollar stores are 2nd place.
Just a heads up. DelMonte sells a 4 pack of corn,green beans and peas that are cheaper than buying them in singles.
Nobody's mentioned food lion yet...
And the winner is good old DG! Off I go!
Food Lion departed the market at least 5 years ago in NE Florida/SE Georgia.
We got one five miles up the road. But I'm in North Ga.
My damn card is a dud it seems. ever time I use it, it crashes the network!

we're not exactly south east, but I think cans are cheapest at Aldi but that's not on your list
The nearest Kroger store is 40 miles away.
BUT, Kroger has a booming delivery business in our area, based out of a central warehouse in Jacksonville, Florida.
You order and pay online. Anything a regular Kroger offers - paper goods, produce, fresh or frozen meat, fresh or canned vegetables. Anything. Picked to fill your order.
It is delivered the next day. We are way out in the country, on a dirt road, and the trucks run out here starting at 7:00 AM and will run until 10:00 PM if necessary.
It sure beats driving into town.
