The average woman believes there isn't a single grocery store in the state of Alabama. The last time we went to the beach they filled up the SUV with so many ice chests and Dorignacs bags we could barely fit in the clothes.

Of course my smart arse decided to point out the amount of food we then took home with us at the end of the week. Never a good idea to open your mouth

Usually bring the alcohol, and things we can only get here that we like to eat. All the stuff that needs to be kept on ice we try and get there.
If you want to cook up something with good Louisiana smoked sausage get it here. I am still amazed at the lack of selection on that specific item over there. Publix is pretty on point with anything else you'd need.

I buy what I can from Costco and then buy everything else at the beach.

But I don't go to Orange Beach

We always most everything at Rouse's when we get there, with a little Walmart thrown in. Rouse's has all the stuff we can't get here in NC.

I prefer to buy groceries there. The Publix had good steaks when I went a month ago. Some stuff we bring from here though. Alcohol, beer, Evangeline Made bread lol

So the beer is weaker in orange beach? What about over in Destin in Fl? Heading that way in a few weeks.

The beer in FL/AL is the same ABV as Louisiana.

I would buy there. If u are worried about cost difference, there is a Walmart just a few miles from the Beach on 59 that is just as cheap as the Walmarts in La.
