MK REVIEWS Smart & Final - Find Out Why We Love It!

Grocery store experience with club size savings and products

By Natalia Castro - Macaroni Kid Summerlin - NW Las Vegas Publisher August 8, 2019

The backpacks are packed with shiny new school supplies alongside bags of classroom supplies for Meet the Teacher. The only thing left to do to is grocery shop for early morning breakfasts, school lunches, after school snacks and quick dinners. This means I'm headed to Smart & Final to stock up for back to school. 

One of my least favorite things to do is grocery shop. Too many options overwhelm me and worrying about using the coupon apps or comparing prices and labels stresses me out. This is part of why I love Smart & Final - it makes grocery shopping easy. 


Convenience

I love the convenience that Smart & Final provides. What used to take two or three trips to different stores I can accomplish in one trip. It eliminates the need for a warehouse store membership since I can buy "club size" products like snacks, juice pouches, croissants, and even spinach. At the same time, I can grab single-serving items, like when I need just ONE tomato for dinner. This means food doesn't spoil from overbuying which is a savings in itself. 




Savings 

Moms always want to find the best deal and make that meal budget go as far as it can. Smart & Final saves me money without having to worry about coupons, apps, or waiting for specific sales. I save time by going to one store. That alone is worth so much. I save money by not having to pay for a membership to shop in bulk. Smart & Final prices are 25% less than regular supermarkets. I get the value of shopping at a warehouse store without the chaos. 



Ease of Shopping 

When I'm shopping with the kids I'm on a time crunch. I need to get through my shopping list before the toddler climbs out of the cart and with enough time to make dinner before the big kids jump into homework or run off to their activities. I love how each section is clearly labeled. I can easily find organic products, like Sun Harvest, bulk items, and the kid's favorite snacks.  They even have bi-color grapes! Smart & Final also has everything I need for our home. I can get fresh produce, meat, easy to make dinners, cleaning products, baby items, and even grain-free dog food. If you prefer getting groceries delivered check out the Smart & Final app or smartandfinal.com. It doesn't get any easier than that! 





Variety of Products

I mentioned that I can accomplish all my shopping in one trip. This includes purchasing some of my favorite products that I normally have to go to specialty grocery stores for. Smart & Final carries brands like Bimbo and Auntie Anne's alongside their organic brand Sun Harvest and their store brand First Street. They even have the self serve bulk items - nuts, cereal, trail mix, and granola, not to mention candy. 









Now grab your shopping list and head to your closest Smart & Final!
