I don’t know about you guys, but the way I like to eat and HOW MUCH this lifting girl eats can get pretty costly. As a poor nursing student, I am always looking for ways to save and can prove that healthy and organic eating habits are financially manageable. I find fun organic treats and superfoods literally everywhere, including TJ MAXX, Ross, and the newest hidden gem, BIG LOTS. Who would’ve thought?! I get so excited about it, I find myself stopping in weekly just to see what they’ve got!
Check out my latest haul! Now I know some of the foods are “dirty,” but I am a flexible dieter who follows IIFYM (if it fits your macros), and I work in these treats post workout or when I’m craving it to avoid binges. This place is a playground for flexible dieters, and I find clean treats too! Win win.
The prices are seriously ridiculous. The Honest sodas were only 33 cents a pop! They are free of crap and comparable to Zevia sodas, which are found at Whole Foods for over $1 a can. I got Annie’s cheddar bunnies and graham friends for $2 a box, PB2 for $4, PB2 crackers for $2, Mom’s best dark chocolate oatmeal packets for $1, and chocolate JIF peanut butter for $1.50!
Other fun finds there that aren’t pictured: Justin’s peanut butter cups, Bob’s Red Mill whole wheat pastry flour, sugarfree Oreos, organic Vanilla tea, Arrowhead organic puffed millet cereal, and stevia packets.
Happy shopping!

WHAT THIS IS WILD! As someone who has to eat GF and DF for my Celiac and IBS, “fun” foods can be costy as well, so I too go places like Marshall’s, Home Goods, & TJ Maxx, but never would think to go to BIG LOTS! I would love to scope out their goodies, I love LOVE pb2!
Amber, I love PB2 as well and this makes me want to go bargain shopping SO BAD!!!! Love this post Alexandra!!
