    Default What's a good price for canned vegetables?

    I need to stock up, but I haven't bought any in such a long time I can't remember. I saw a sale ad for Green Giant canned vegetables 0.58 per can.

    I buy my canned veggies when they are 3 for 1.00 somtimes they even go as low as 4 for 1.00. If you like green giant then that is probably a good price. The above prices are for store brands.

    We buy canned veggies at Costco, depending on the veggie, around 30-50 cents a can.

    I can usually get them through loss leaders for store brand 3/1.00 or 4/1.00, though there is usually a limit of 10 or 12 at that price. National brands sometimes for .40 a can, but I rarely buy those. One store will very occasionally, though less often than in the past, have house brand canned beans for .20. But then, our costs overall are less where I live than for many of you.

    Don't buy many canned veggies but when I do they have to be around 33¢.

    I won't pay more than fifty cents a can for name brand and typically stock up if they're forty cents. Otherwise, we can get them about three for a dollar at Aldi's. Dh despises Aldi's canned veg for some reason though.

    I buy Green Giant and stock up when they are .50¢. Have never seen them any cheaper but use very few canned vegetables - freeze a lot of my own.
