Excellent way to cut your grocery budget! They have a little bit of everything and can feel like a treasure hunt! Lots of main staples as well as high-end options for a fraction of the price of your neighborhood grocery store. I shop here once or twice a month and plan many meals around the items I purchase and then get the rest of what I need other places. We love that they honor the military veterans with a 10% discount on Thursdays. We also like to know that we're supporting a small business and the wheel of prizes is a fun way to get an added surprise that saves money in the future. This store is not "fancy", but nobody knows where the food comes from once it's home! About the expiration dates- yes, I look at all of the dates and use my judgment to decide what I'm comfortable with. I've been shopping at American Discount for 12 years and have maybe gotten a handful of things that I wished I would have skipped, but they will refund if you bring your items back. Overall this place is a budget saver and I'm grateful to have this opportunity when times are tough.

Prices seem good at the entrance, but once you get to the aisles, things get crazy. Prices are outstanding. 25 cent snacks in 2023? So cool. Workers are pleasant and helpful. A lot of people talk about carbon footprints, and this place is a great way to reduce your carbon footprint, reduce good waste and with your food bill. American Discount Foods is a large, clean grocery store that get lots of overstock, some dented boxes, and lots of dairy products and dairy substitutes within date. ADF has lots of food nearing expiration dates, but they are safe to eat and most taste great. They do have some things that are past the best buy date, but there are posters with links to documentaries by FDA and various health organizations explaining what is still safe. The store guarantees all food for 14 days if refrigerated, but 45 days for everything else, So if for some reason those just expired chips taste nasty, you can return it. I've never has anything except refrigerated Presidents brie taste off. The food carried is always rotating with new things and weekly deals. There are so many health foods, veggies, and even foreign goods. They even have restaurant quantities available like a mini Costco corner. I love that they also offer a small amount, so you can buy a 10 to 50 cent snack, and then decide if you want to buy the big Box for, like, three to eight dollars. That's really helpful for people like me whom are trying to expand what they they eat and try new things, and for families with young children. Some fun things they've had: Kewpie mayonnaise, dungeoness crab chips, sushi chef pickled ginger as an item they carry often, maple onion jam, chestnut honey, blue corn tortilla chips, chocolate coconut chips, dried whole mung beans, Peruvian beans, fried apples, no bake pumpkin pie, Thai chili rondele dip, and every sauce known to man Great deals I've gotten: 5 pounds of pancake mix or 10lbs of Quaker Oats for $5, Cascadia farms granola cereal for 99c, family sized chips for $1.29, 79c for half-gallon in date Lactose-free milk, 5lbs of ricotta for $3.99, 9 pack of Pocky for $1.29, 79c Strawberry Pocky, $1.99 for 3-pack of large portion Korean instant noodles [Naeng-Myeon] and all kinds of cool prices on RX bars and meal substitutes. They carry LOTS of vitamins and cleaning products, and some clothing as well.

My daughter stumbled onto this gem of a grocery store and shared her excitement with the family on how much money she saved. Most importantly was her amazing experienced with the staff which was overwhelming POSITIVE! I am so glad that I finally was able to shop at American Discount Foods yesterday and I found many item’s that were name brands that were very inexpensive. I know if I would have gone to the big grocery chains I would have paid so much more. Just like my daughter I had a wonderful positive experience with the staff. While waiting at the checkout I had an opportunity to read the back of staff t-shirts and walls. Wow, totally mind blowing! I am so blessed and grateful I had an opportunity to shop here yesterday and I will continue to shop at this awesome grocery discount store! I appreciate American Discount Foods for making it possible for me to stretch my money to provide groceries for my family!

I really love this store. Great variety of items and not the best looking store but great deals every day. The staff is friendly and they’re always willing to help. I’ve been a customer since the Extension & Broadway location. Unfortunately, I moved to Glendale about 10 years ago. Thankfully I do work in downtown Mesa so I’m able to stop by for a quick shop before you close every few months. My only major complaint is that the store opens too late. Wednesdays I’m not at work until mid morning and that would be a great time for me to do some shopping. Either way I still enjoy stopping by every few months and grabbing some great deals. Really enjoy all the great finds!

Great place to get discounts, including vegan products. Doesn't specifically cater to vegans, but it's always great to find a place where you can pay less than the upcharge. The staff are friendly and helpful. There's a wide selection of products and often something new to discover and even a prize wheel to spin for savings for your next purchase if you spend over $50. Certain days of the week also have additional savings for veterans or seniors.

I really do love going to this place nearly every month! There's a lot of great deals on different types of things, not just food but appliances and home wares as well. Of course, the selection is always changing so there's always new things. I really like coming for the various snacks and drinks they offer. Their clothing and health section is super varied, and I highly recommend coming here if you have children as they have different things you can buy at a deep discount. Otherwise the store is kept clean, stocked well, and I always have a pleasant experience with the staff and cashiers. Its very fun spinning the wheel at the end of the cashier transaction. Parking is very large and available. If you can make the trek here, its very worth it.
