The groceries arrive in a refrigerated trailer from distribution centers and major grocery stores throughout the area. Some items are over-stocked; some have “sell by dates” too close to put on grocery shelves; some are name-brand products and some are not. We never know ahead of time what we are getting, but expect anything that could be found in a grocery store such as candies, snacks, sodas, frozen meats, frozen vegetables, frozen pizza, can goods, dry goods, cleaning supplies, dairy products, or just about anything else in between. Auctions of this type will have a lot of “pass outs.” This means that the large the crowd, the better because the distributor can move more product and at a better price. So pass the word to your neighbors and friends. Items will be offered and available in small lots and/or large lots – buy as little or as much as you like. Buy for yourself, a large family, or your next gathering or party. There will be some great deals!
