Do you have any tips for shopping off of these shelves? What's good to buy? How much are these items generally marked down? Is there anything I should steer clear of?

Thanks for your input!

At our grocery stores the markdown amounts vary. One marks everything down at least 1/2 price with quite a bit of a shelf life left (sometimes 6+ months). The other doesn't have a set amount it depends on shelf life, why it's there (dented can, older product, etc).

The only thing I steer clear of is the bakery - but that's not because it normally isn't good. I tend to be a bread snob and don't like breads once they get on the dryer side.

As long as the shelf life is good, and the package isn't open I would buy anything from my stores. I (to date) haven't ever had a bad experience yet.

if you buy meat just make sure you get it in the freezer that day if you not going to use it. there are good deals to be had.
