How do I shop when I am trying to find enough crackers to feed my kids lunch?

I still think you can do better shopping when you personally go to the stores,match the prices,see which one you like more and get what suites your pocket the best.You don't get to do that online.There is clearence and sales too all the time.You can get bargains and satisfaction only when you go yourself to the stores.
