Are Snyder’S Snacks Available At Price Rite Grocery?

Personally, one of the things that I like about shopping at Dollar Tree is getting some of the smaller size options. I’m single and often don’t want larger options available. Even if it is better price per ounce I would prefer to pay less for a smaller option. For example, I may be ok paying $1.25 for a smaller option than $3 at the grocery store for a larger size that is a better per ounce option. The $1.25 is less money overall and I just need less of it because I’m only one person.

This article was fantastic, thank you for making it! I used to shop at DT quite often, but then when they raised prices 25%, most of their competitive items suddenly seemed overpriced, so I stopped going/looking. I had no idea they’d started carrying the cupcake sprinkles, will definitely check those out, as well as the frozen berries! Sometimes buying a small pkg of an item makes sense, i.e., f you’re making a recipe and need a specific item rarely used, buying a small pkg to prevent paying more at the register, and food waste down the road is a great idea.

Thank you for all this info! It’s super helpful. Also, here’s a possible idea for summer or fall-whenever baby decides to let you sleep! If you can check out a Big Lots, or an Ollie’s, a price comparison might be a cool project. Big Lots, in particular, seems to carry a lot of healthier foods for what I (a person using EBT) consider great prices.

The $ tree Juicy Juice apple juice is the best price around for the 4.1 oz juices. You get 4 juice boxes for $1.25 where as the grocery store is $4 for an 8 pack. Not to mention, it can be hard to find the 4.1 oz size at grocery stores. My 7 year-old son has type 1 diabetes and needs specifically the 4.1 oz (15 carbs) to treat low glucose while he is at school. Diabetic supplies are costly so this juice option has been helpful.

I constantly forget about Dollar Tree having food options. I will say, even though price per oz may not always be great at Dollar Tree, knowing that there are smaller portions might actually be worth it for reasons like you want to try stuff. Or for instance, I really don’t bake a ton. I don’t even use sugar all that much. But a couple of months ago, I had to buy all those in the smallest bags I could possibly find at my grocery store for a recipe or two… and I’m still holding onto a ton leftover. Sometimes getting those smaller portions is better so you don’t inevitably waste a ton of money by having bad food.

Walmart’s veggies are cheaper than DTs. I don’t like the quality of the frozen strawberries from DT. They seem to be smaller, and there is something off about the color of the strawberries. I will buy the packages of veggies in a real pinch, but I prefer the ones at Walmart. Even my HEB has a better deal on the veggies at a cheaper price point.

I prefer the grocery outlet, not sure if they have this store in your area, shopping there is interesting, on budget, and they tend to have a good selection of organics and also some international cheeses. Cheesy I know.. they also have many discounted household items and kitchen ware of a pretty good quality. I do like the Dollar tree for certain kinds of things but just not for groceries. I appreciate your research and candor.

By law here grocery stores have to display not only the product price but also the unit price. This makes it easy to make price comparisons per gram or kg for each product. I usually buy frozen goods when its a tight week as the unit prices are usually better than their fresh produce. I cook for two and buy as much basic ingredients as possible and cook from scratch. That way I can cut down on fillers, fats and artificial flavours/colourings as possible. Make my own snacks, cakes, desserts and cookies too. 1 hour max a day is all it takes to put meals together and I pack the oven with several dishes to cut down on energy, which has gone up 300% this year.

One of the items I’ve found at Dollar Tree is canned peaches that are a steal compared to the grocery stores! I had looked at fruit at the grocery store and it ranged around $1.65 or more. I’m not a stickler for name brands, especially with the constant increase in price. Sometimes getting a smaller amount of an item is preferred. The smaller container of frosting is usually sufficient when I bake a cake and half of the tub from the grocery store wouldn’t be used and stashed in the fridge to never be found again. I love the cheese balls from DT and they come in a very large bag! A great savings from the higher price at the grocery store! There are meals in the freezer section of DT that are within a few cents of the same meals at the grocery store! Sometimes it’s easier to pick up something at DT than to make a trip to the grocery store for just one or two items. And sometimes I just don’t want to go to a big grocery store. There are only two big grocery stores in my town and they’re always crowded during the day.🙄 If I’m already at DT, I can save more time than fighting the crowd. We only have Walmart and a Texas chain store so we don’t have a lot of choices. Thanks for all your research and sharing your findings!

Our stuff might cost more but you get more for your money in Aldi’s is cheaper than any store this lady is just stuck up and lying she thinks she’s too good that’s why she’s shopping in a higher price store look how much you spent on the dog store you could have went to Walmart and got the same stuff for only 10 bucks

Meanwhile Americans claim the UK is “so expensive” yeah ok…. The birds custard cream in the UK is £2 or less – that’s $2.45 give or take – meanwhile in the USA. $4.99 Jammie Dodgers? – UK same size pack is 80 pence, equivalent to about $1.05. In the USA? $3.69. $50 in the USA for a dog toy and 3 bags of treats? Lol What a complete scam. Not to mention the UK prices I’ve given INCLUDE sales tax, whereas the USA ones don’t and it’s added on at the till…

I don’t understand how american products are cheaper in my country than in america. The euro and the dollar have almost the same value, but american products are almost half the price here. Conversely, german products are more expensive in america, I do not understand that. I know the salaries are a bit higher in the US but not nearly enough to justify these prices.

It’s US $6.76 for the I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter in Trinidad (Caribbean) and everything you showed in this article the price is like $1.00-$2.00 US more, everything including the same branded items from the Wine to the Leafy Greens.. The only thing that seem to be the same are the Cereals🤦🏾‍♀️ The bottle of Tresemme is about upwards US $12……….

The way grocery prices in the UK are increasing, some of those prices in the US wont be far off now. Wonder if the US is also catching up and increasing their costs as ours do, also. $9 for a box of Yorkshire teabags though??!! When we visited NYC it was interesting to see the UK stuff on the shelves, but never bought any of it. Always like to try the ‘local’ stuff when we go away, and things you can’t get (as easy) at home. ‘John Wayne’ Toilet Paper…. 🤣🤣

Publix is expensive BUT has some reasons to visit! The DELI is awesome. Also, their prepared food is very good, and their CHICKEN TENDERS are the best in town! They used to have good sushi on sale on Wednesdays, but the quality has diminished greatly over the years! 🙁 There are still reasons to visit though!

Our prices in all US stores have at least doubled, & still rising. It’s insane. We’re also dealing with a lot of quality issues, shortages with varying items, especially cat food. Also, along with the inflation, we’re dealing with shrinkflation. It’s not pretty over here at all, & I’m a couponer, & still feeling the wrath of this pretty bad.

Great idea. You can only compare prices if you know the average salary? For example how long do you have to work to buy something, bread etc? Perhaps do a similar vlog in a French supermarket, carrefour, atac etc. Their supermarkets light years ahead of UK ones. I used to live in Folkestone on Kent coast and would get ferry to do monthly shop, if getting timing of boat right could even buy frozen food. Very good vlog thank you.

Again loving this one Mac. My love for America as silly as this sounds, wandering around an everyday American supermarket/superstore is just on my bucket list. An everyday task I may never get to do. This article you’re living out my dream. Love it. Hiya #Orlandokelz 👋Love Kellys American/British mixed accent 🙂

Great stuff Lee & Kelly. Loved your “HOW MUCH!?”, Lee. Bob on what I was thinking!😀 Kelly is right on the D&B… much better than Root Beer (although, I do like Root Beer). A trip around that super-market did little to dispel the stereotype of American food being so unhealthy! Look at the MASSIVE bags of crisps, the sugar-laced cereal, the super-shiny chemical apples, and the ‘buy one, get one free’… CONSUME, CONSUME, CONSUME products! Gone up a lot in the last year or so, I wonder why… (I think we all know what has caused that).

Hope there’s more article’s with Kelly soon, She has a wicked sense of Humor. Like a laid back Americanized version of the Macmaster. Great idea for a article, and it has given me some idea’s for my own website / content. I like nothing better than visiting local Supermarkets here in the US, especially the Asian and Indian ones. I’m from Glasgow but now live and work in the USA, so have been enjoying these articles alot. As for root beer, I call it mouth wash, but your right now I think about it, it’s freaking Germaline in a bottle, and Americans are drinking it! And they seem to always be trying to PUSH it on me? It’s all making sense now….. too late for the Macmaster, sounds like he’s hooked on Root Beer now : )

Another enjoyable article, but come on even though Kelly has bought no liquor there sure we of seen people esp after very long 14 years of living there seen people buying some and where it was put lol And we do have dog treat shops as you must know Lee-but not a factory lol Lee did you just say about the European isle as we are out of the EU so need a separate one to the Europeans British-I do hope that was a joke???? As common knowledge we never come off the ground and left Europe only the EU -2 totally different things mate 😂🤣 You showed the plant based butters but not the planet based milks/desserts….etc

Thank you Kelly for taking us round the supermarket. My American wife says I’m tight. I keep telling her my wallet will flatline before I do. How i miss morrisons. I’d never bought a loaf of bread for more than a pound. Here some are $4 or more. And full of sugar. We get penalized for buying british goods. We pay over inflated prices. Yet if you go to the every little helps supermarket in England they have american food cheaper than they do here. A four pack of flakes in England is £1 and here you could be spending up to $10. Its ruddy nora pricing here. I’m coming off my soapbox now. Great article Lee and thank you for the facial expressions at the prices. Can wait to play the article to my wife. I guess I will end up on the sofa lol

Not only do we have dog bakeries, but cat cafes too…so not just in the US. After seeing this I don’t know where this myth that the US is chaeper than us-gas and alcohol, for sure. The numbers looked the same as they do here, until I converted them to CAD-that was SUPER expensive, the best deal you seemed to get was the ketchup. I always said Canada is right between the UK and the US, in terms of just about everything. Aero, Birds, Ambrosia, HP are all standard things here. I can get Pickled Onions, Walnuts, Piccalilli with a bit of a trip, nothing arduous. I’m surprised with a no state tax like FL.

I thought the prices here in Dublin were bad enough, its nothing compared to those prices. I cant get over the price of toothpaste!! I’m always giving out about what we pay compared to the Spanish supermarkets. Never again shall I complain. BTW for some reason I always thought root beer was the American name for ginger ale. Kudos to Kellly for a great suggestion.

The last time I went in an American Mall, it was full of shall we say ‘ coloured youths’ with their massively oversize tracksuit bottoms hanging around their knees, their boxer shorts on display and their hands thrust down the front playing pocket billiards whilst looking at you like you were something on their sneakers…No thanks, never again.

Would you be following this up with a tour of an Orlando liquor store? I know you had the beer/wine section of the Publix, but showing the many flavours of vodka, etc. available might be watchable content too. Most of the chains around Dr. Philips area would be “ABC Liquors”. Usually these are in the same shopping centers as the groceries. If you come across any J20 mixers around here, I’d be very interested in those juices. Just something I normally have to buy when across the pond visiting.

Don’t forget tax to be added on non food items! Here in Reno, the price of British goods is even higher. American supermarket prices are very high, driving poor people to eat at fast food places (life expectancy in USA is lower than Western and Northern Europe). Aldi and Lidl do exist in parts of USA but they price locally (adjusting to local market conditions) but in Maryland Aldi is really busy because they are much cheaper than other supermarkets- good quality too. Root beer is equivalent to Marmite – like it or loathe it. I can’t stand it! Btw – as a UK pensioner living here in USA, I’m so grateful for the triple lock on pensions being scrapped – 5% cut in real terms on the incomes of the elderly! Thanks BJ – the root beer of politicians.
