| - Winco is the best grocery store around! & I am the Duke for a reason ;-) Sure it is a little off the beaten path for me, but well worth the trip.
They have great prices & an even better selection than any of the other local grocery stores. They even carry products you wouldn't normally see on the West Coast. However, that being said, they can also be hit or miss with the consistency of their stock. For example, you might find a particular item one week & not be able to get it the next. No matter, their selection more than makes up for it. Whereas you may find 3 brands of a particular item @ your regular grocery store, you will almost always have 3 or more additional selections here.
The produce section here is usually very good, but can be hit or miss @ times, depending on when you go. I have bought some of the best Roma tomatoes I have ever seen...anywhere! & not just locally. Big, red & ripe! Same with the strawberries. Although, there have been times when I have come & been saddened by those very same items. But overall, I don't think you will find a better produce section around town for these prices, unless you go down to Greenland Supermarket.
They also have bulk items, which is pretty awesome. Just about anything you can imagine. My favorite would have to be the honey. It is definitely a lot cheaper buying the honey this way & more delicious in its raw form. The freshly ground nut butters are nice too, if that's what you're into.
The deli section is yet another highlight of Winco. The coldcuts here are brilliant & taste fresh & delicious! The pastrami is great, as well as the salami & Italian roast beef, which I'm not normally a fan of. They will let you sample everything & as many things as you like & they are not stingy with the samples @ all. Also, the rotisserie chickens are delicious & big & very reasonably priced & come in different flavors. The BBQ one is my personal favorite.
The meat section is usually very good & they have great cuts & selection. Every now & again they will have sales on select cuts, such as ribeye, as low as $5.99 lb. I have tried the ribeye, N.Y. & tri-tip & have been very impressed.
I could probably go on, but I have hit the bullet points. It's up to you now fellow Yelpers, to come to Winco & experience it for yourself. Hopefully someday they will expand beyond Northtown & Hendo. But, until that day don't be afraid to venture outside your grocery store comfort zone & give Winco the chance it deserves. Until then, I will eagerly await all of your thank you messages to flood my Yelp inbox.
