Really? My BB&B coupon expires in 7 days but I won't risk it. I'll be looking for the Shark Navigator. There's a BB&B near Lincoln Center, not too far from the Mormon megachurch. The line there moves pretty fast which is a plus.
Yeah, they always take expired coupons. It's nothing shady, it's just one of their little-known nice practices. You can also combine them.
Please remember the topic of this thread is to assist the OP in shopping in and around NYC, with a focus on Manhattan per the OP. All tips are welcome, and let's leave it up to the OP to comparison shop for their own budget. We all have our own subjective definitions of what a good price/value is with respect to groceries and home goods, so please let's not derail this thread with parallel discussions that are of little use to the OP about such topics as what neighborhood another poster lives in, or their definition of value. Thank you.

Oh yeah, I forgot about Bed Bath & Beyond! I'll play it safe with the coupon deal - some locations might not accept expired coupons. Anyway, I'm making a note of their store locations. Great advice, everyone, and glad to be back on topic!
If you ever find yourself Uptown, there's a target on W225th in Marble Hill. Not far away, a bit further up Broadway, in Kingsbridge (Bronx) is the Garden Gourmet (http://www.gardengourmetmarket.com/fresh/ - broken link) market that features some good prices on produce, and other grocery items, including some hard-to-find items. The closest subway stop would be W231st on the 1 train.
K-Mart is on W34th, which is more easily accessible than Target, especially for items like laundry detergents and the like, where you might not want to make a dedicated trip to Target or Costco.
I also like Whole Foods for their selection and price, but I tend to shop there more than other markets because of my own food choices. The 365 brand does have the best prices of the grocery stores, unless you were comparing it to a bulk store like Fairway. For premium oils and salts, I also find the prices at Filling Station in the Chelsea Market to be fair, not to mention the unique offerings that they have in stock.

There's also a K-Mart at Astor Place. It's pretty nice.
Also, the BB&B in Tribeca is the least crowded one I've been in.

The Fillng station in the Chelsea market what is that place and when i looked up the place that people here talked about where they would bring food items to your door and there prices seamed a little high in some of the things like peanut butter and company peanut butter ..
When you can order from the company and get a better price or go to the store there in Manhattan and buy saight from the company store and get a better deal or order off of amazon and get a better price ..

The Filling Station is an olive oil, vinegar, salt, etc. shop in Chelsea Market. Their claim to fame is the refillable container, where you buy the vessel for oil, and then when you return with it, you get 10% off the price. What I like is the selection that they offer, and since you can buy a couple of sizes of container, you can get a decent value on a quality product. Some oils or vinegars I use sparingly, so it's much less expensive for me to buy a smaller container and refill at a discount than to buy the larger container that's not as unique in the grocery store. They also have unique salts, sugars, and some other items at fair prices, considering that they're a boutique store. They opened in August/September, IIRC, and I know a few very happy customers.
