The Best Time To Visit The Grocery Store For The Highest-Quality Goods
BY EMMY SCHNEIDER-GREEN
The best time to shop is in the early morning after the stores restock. This ensures you'll be getting freshly replenished shelves, ample produce options, and high quality items.
By arriving as close to opening time as possible, you guarantee yourself fresh groceries, regardless of the supermarket. Plus, you can avoid large crowds.
You can also ask about local restocking schedules at your grocery store. Wednesdays are ideal, with freshly restocked shelves and fewer shoppers midweek.
Conversely, you can expect busier stores and larger crowds around 5:00 p.m. during the week or in anticipation of holidays, game days, or long weekends.
