West Sacramento Store, formerly a Staples

There are groceries at the end of the rainbow!

Grocery Outlet (aka "Expired Food Store") will make you appreciate the transience of life in relation to groceries. You never know what items will be in stock because the store buys overstocked goods from warehouses and sells them at discounted prices. This manner of business allows for random products to show up like unique cheeses, Asian and Mexican juices, and other exotic things. However, if you find something really rad, it might never show up again. Grocery Outlet carries fresh produce, refrigerated items, wine (2 rows full), frozen foods, canned goods, and even bicycles at one point. It's the most economical place to purchase communal items like cleaning supplies, foil, tupperware, sandwich baggies, etc. There is also a surprising array of organic and soy-based items that appear regularly. Most Grocery Outlets are family owned, including the one in Woodland. For the full outlet experience, visit the Thrift Store Outlet before hitting up Grocery Outlet.

Overall, it's a great shopping experience, but make sure to check the dates on anything you buy— they frequently stock foods that are about to, or already have, expired.

2005-07-01 16:04:52   I remember being at one Grocery Outlet in Redwood City when I was 15 and found, among some thyme, pepper, and other spices, a gallon size container of MSG. It was $12. —SteveLambert

2005-09-06 17:16:03   There is also one of these stores in West Sac just North of the Harbor Blvd. Exit. I bought a giant bag of Craisins for about half the price of what most stores sell the regular bags. —JanelleAlvstadMattson

2005-12-16 22:40:39   depressing place to shop. Great location to find meth heads —DudeNude

2006-05-02 20:08:34   If you are looking for ambiance, this is not it. But if you're interested in crazy deals on groceries, there is no place better. Plus you don't have to settle for crap food. —LizMoffitt

2006-05-26 20:40:21   Occassionally Grocery Outlet will have some interesting Wines, making it somewhere besides Trader Joe's, BevMo, CostCo and Sams to look for some interesting values. I actually believe that the Woodland location has a better selection and not just of wines. —JaimeRaba

2007-08-02 21:48:23   I found real Roquefort for $1.99 a pound. Seriously. It was labeled "Random Weight Meat". That's like 2 Euros per kilo. I'm sure the French ambassador intervened, because I never saw it again.

They're based in Berkeley, and actually had a classy wine tasting for UC Berkeley staff. My advice on the wines is: 1) buy a bunch of bottles 2) go home and taste them 3) spit out your tastes so you can safely drive back and buy more of the ones you like. —BrianNeal
