Frequently Asked Questions

Are you hiring? 

We're glad you're interested in joining our team but we have all the help we need at this time.  If we do plan on hiring in the future, we'll post a sign on the windows of our stores.

Are you able to donate to our fundraiser/school/church etc..? 

Due to the amount of people asking for donations, we will do everything we can to accommodate your request.  You will need to provide us with a written statememt or receipt with the name and phone number of the organization as well as your name and phone number for our tax records.

Are you able to accept coupons? 

We are unable to accept coupons because we buy from discount distributors, not the manufactures.

Where do you get your products?

We purchase pallets of product from several discount distributors in NC and SC.

Why are your prices so low? 

Since we buy from discount distributors we don't have to charge as much as other retailers because the distributers get their products from retailers, not the manufactures.

Why do retailers sell their proucts to discount distributors? 

There's a few reasons why.  The retailers could be going out of business, their product is getting close to their sale by dates, or the retailers are discontinuing certain products because they don't sell them as well in their stores.

Do you only sell out-of-date food?

Although some products may be close to the expiration date or expired, most are not.

Are your meats expired?

Although the meats that are labeled "Freeze By _\_\_" they are kept frozen in our stores.

Is it illegal to sell out-of-date food?
