I work in a "freight damaged" type grocery store. We also get ALL KINDS of restaurant equipment. Anyone in the food service business, PM me, and I'll get you the info. We also process stuff from all the local chains.
At least once a month, we get in a ripped-open bag of Mexican Mesquite, which rarely makes it to the sales floor. (Funny how they always make it to my house.)
The economy has both helped and hurt our busines. Product is getting more expensive, but customers are getting more plentiful.

Mike, (and whoever else is interested) we get in all kinds of stuff. Never know until the truck arrives. The boss goes to auctions a couple times a week, and with Bashas' still shutting down stores...
Here's the scoop. Extension, just barely north of Broadway, on the west side. Look for all the flags out front, as well as painted on the front and side of the bulding. If any of you remember the old Rosarita plant, we're there.
Name of the place is American Discount Foods, and is open M-F 9 to 8, Saturday 9 to 6.
Mike has given me approval to post when we get in stuff that might be of interest to you all, so I will.
I'm always open to PMs, so ask if we have anything. (No, I'm just a part-time employee, not one of the owners.)
