What
is Mill Street
Market?
We are a discount grocery store that
sells surplus and 'bent and dent' product.
You will find our interior clean and the
atmosphere pleasant.
We
encourage recycling; so bring your own
bags and receive an extra punch on your
FREQUENT BUYERS CARD (free to all
customers).
Where
do we get your
products?
If a case of green beans gets dropped,
and a couple of cans get bent, those cans
(and sometimes the whole case) don't make
it to the grocery store shelves. Instead,
they are sold to stores, like
ours.
Sometimes
undamaged grocery items become discounted
because their "use by" date was getting
close, or because the item just didn't
sell well in that area. Jalapenos sell
very well in Texas, maybe not so well in
Wisconsin. Seasonal and holiday items make
their way to our shelves too.
For your
convenience, milk, free-range eggs,
butter, cheese, meats, and cold soft
drinks. We also offer frozen meats,
dinners, vegetables, desserts,
etc.
What
will you find at Mill Street Market
?
In general you can look to find a
30-70% savings on most items. Actual
prices will depend on the prices we are
able to secure and vary from shipment to
shipment.
What
does it mean if a product is "out of
date"?
It means just about nothing. While
perishable groceries (ie:milk) have
expiration dates that matter, the "best
use by" dates on non-perishable groceries
are mostly measures for making sure
grocers rotate their stock efficiently. A
bottle of Italian dressing is just as good
a month after it's "best use by" date as
it was a month before it's "best use by"
date. As long as the seal is intact or the
vacuum is good, the product is still
fine.
What
methods of payment do we
accept?
We accept Visa, MasterCard, EBT (Food
Stamps), Personal Checks and
Cash.
