Winco

Ok, so call me cheap, thrifty, crazy, whatever. We don't have a Winco or any cheaper grocery store here in Utah. I miss shopping at Winco and saving. The nearest Winco is in Idaho. Jeff was with me on this one when I decided we would take a trip to Pocatello, Idaho(2 hour drive - not bad) and stock up on groceries at Winco. We have a favorite missionary from California that is back home now in Idaho so this was an opportunity to meet up with him also. We traveled a little further to Idaho Falls to see Elder Ricks but it was worth it. I was able to stock up on flour, sugar, chocolate chips, rice, quick oats, cocoa and a few other things. Next month I will go again for things they didn't have this trip. This fall a Winco is opening in Utah and we are very excited.

And here we are heading into Winco. Yeah! Although not as big as ours was in California - hopefully the Utah one will be bigger.

Kevin is totally stoked about the new Winco here, too!! Shawnee told me you are a fan of U Food Grill- we have one in Draper. Let me know if you ever come down here to check it out.

Oh yeah - How do you live without a Winco? Glad you are getting one :D

That is funny that you drove all the way to Idaho to go to the nearest Winco.

Watch out Utah...here comes Winco. Man, what will opening day be like?

But I couldn't live without it either!
