I got some items from the bulk section at the back of the store. This can be much cheaper than buying the pre-packed items. For example I got coconut flakes and 300g is cheaper using the bulk foods than buying a pre-packaged bag of coconut flakes. This bulk section is cheaper than the one at whole foods too. Parking still can be an issue. My pet peeve is people parking on the road by the store instead of in the parking lot. I realize it can take a little bit of effort to get out but don't block the flow of traffic just because you're lazy or in a hurry. I hope Ambrosia does something about the parking issue in the future. Or perhaps they can move to a better location down the road with more parking?
Just a note: all natural, organic food is currently more expensive than traditional foods. But I would rather pay a little bit more for quality than have to pay for it later in medical bills or medications. So pay now or pay later. It's up to you. If you can't afford to buy everything organic, just buy only select items organic. For myself I will always buy organic any produce that I will eat the skin. E.G.: apples, potatoes, etc. You can also look up the dirty dozen foods on ewg.org which lists what produce is susceptible to absorbing pesticides.
