LOVE this place. A lot of the more expensive vegan ingredients (coconut milk, vital wheat gluten, etc) can be found cheap here. Great for vegans on a budget.

Every time I’m in NoHa, this is my first stop. Every. Time. The prices and selection here are incredible. One side of the store is weird discount clothing and shoes and what not, but the rest of it is a changing assortment of healthy snacks, foods, drinks, shampoo, you name it. It’s kinda like Big Lots in the way that you never really know what will be there as it seems many products are cast-offs, overstock, or about to expire, but the prices are insane. Depending on what they have, you could get 10 for $1 snack bars, 3 bags of Dandies for .99, or three bags of chips for the price of one. Plus less expensive boxes of vegan Mac and cheese, staples like tea and pasta sauce, and tons of other shelf-stable items (no refrigerated or frozen stuff, though). If you need snacks or meal ingredients, you simply must go here. Trust me.

Shopping here can be a mixed bag, but the successes make it worthwhile. I often come here for various items, from bathroom essentials to kitchen supplies. Occasionally, I notice products that are past their expiration date and marked accordingly, but I’ve never encountered anything opened that was spoiled. Some of my favorite discoveries include vegan salad dressings, Bragg's products, cleaners, feminine products, chips, snacks, and nut butter—often at lower prices than other local stores.

Every time I visit NoHa, this place is my go-to spot. The prices and variety are outstanding. One side of the store features some unusual discounted clothing and shoes, but the rest is filled with a constantly changing selection of healthy snacks, foods, drinks, shampoos, you name it. It's a bit like Big Lots in that you never quite know what you'll find, as many products seem to be overstocked or discontinued. But the prices are unbelievable! Depending on what's available, you might snag 10 snack bars for $1, three bags of Dandies for 99 cents, or three bags of chips for the price of one. They also have affordable vegan mac and cheese and a great selection of other pantry staples like tea and pasta sauce, though there's no refrigerated or frozen food. If you're in need of snacks or cooking ingredients, you absolutely have to check this place out. Trust me!

Shopping at this place can be unpredictable, but when you do hit the jackpot, it’s completely worth it. I usually check here first for everyday essentials, whether it’s for the bathroom or the kitchen. While some products may be close to their expiration date and discounted, I’ve never encountered anything bad once opened. I've found some of my favorite items here for less than at other local stores, including vegan salad dressings, Bragg’s products, cleaning supplies, feminine care items, chips, snacks, and nut butters.
