We have a Mennonite Discount Grocery store here where we live. It's called Shelters. We do the majority of our shopping there. When I go to the regular grocery I'm shocked by the prices. I truly enjoy shopping at the discount stores because it's always a surprise when you arrive and see what they have in stock. I enjoyed watching your video, you are such a sweet, warm soul. You make me smile. May God bless you more today than yesterday.

I’ve shopped there when the the lower farm cities started selling out & building subdivisions & huge homes!!!! Unfortunately my husband likes the semi city life burble was born & raised on the farm so you can take girl off the farm but can’t take the farm out of the girl! I’m 60 now but I still can and keep a freezer full of meat I buy from farmers up your way!!! My husband now regrets he didn’t listen to me & wished we could move north well unfortunately it’s not possible in these times!!! But I have children who do live in the area & have raised their families there and they shop that store as well!!! Love love love the owner & Gia family!!! Good people!!! 👍

I need to find a store like this, I live in the Midwest…any ideas on how you find them? Also, have you noticed a price increase at the Mennonite store like we’ve seen at the regular grocery store? lol, Braunschweiger, that brings back memories…German mother, we ate that all the time instead of bologna. She also taught me a lot of frugal tips from her life experience of born in the Depression and growing up thru WWII. She saved everything, and stretched everything (even tho my parents worked very hard and money wasn’t scarce.) Thanks for sharing! Any advice from above would be appreciated!

I am not sure how you find these stores, they sure are gems. Maybe there is a Facebook group?
