What are your Fave Store Brands when grocery shopping?

I food shop at Walmart most of the time (it's a food store down here).

The things that I find are pretty darn good:
Great Value-Walmarts store brand:
pasta
their version of Dove soap
oatmeal
chocolate & vanilla sandwich cookies ($1.50 a package!) and their chocolate shortbread cookies (the have the fudge on one side and the stripes on the other).
Sams Choice drinks-cran-grape and the powdered lemonade are good
their frozen veggies and fries/tater tots ($1.25 a bag!) and canned veggies
napkins and paper towels if they are the cheapest

I buy store brand items but only certain things.....I would basically get most things besides mayo, salad dressing, orange juice, etc. Things like that in both Pathmark and Waldbaums.

I can buy store brand ketchup, mustard, milk, frozen foods and that's about it. I won't buy store brand soda or mayo. Some things have to stay the same...even when trying to save money.

Re: What are your Fave Store Brands when grocery shopping?

I mainly shop at Waldbaums and I love some their stuff, they have two lines, the less expensive "America's Choice" and then "Master Choice" which is better

I like America's Choice lite english muffins (1 pt)
Master Choice Peanut Butter and Salsa, and a few other things

I usually try the store brand stuff when its on sale (so it's really cheap) and I try to incorporate it if I like to to save some $$
