We get dried cranberries, nuts... trail mix type stuff there. I love that Garris called it “OSJL”… that’s why my girlfriend and I call it! We get dried cranberries, nuts… trail mix type stuff there.

I usually come away with virgin olive oil at cheap prices, anchovies, Nutella, pasta, bottled pasta sauce, bottled roast peppers, Italian Arborio rice. I go to Below Cost in Cranston quite a bit.

I wish I'd bought them out, because (of course) I've never seen the brand again and subsequent cut-price chili-garlic sauces I've bought haven't measured up <i>at all.</i> Sigh. The Cranston one does have a lot of really good Thai and Korean stuff, usually. I once chanced upon a heartbreakingly perfect Thai chili sauce with garlic at the Cranston Job Lot for a measly $1.

I can't wait to try the biscotti recipe. They are totally different from the kind I'm used to making. I’m glad you saw my comment! I can’t wait to try the biscotti recipe.

I used to love milling around there especially for little trinkets around the holidays. I haven't been inside one for over 10 years! Thanks for dropping me a line about the biscotti, Stephanie. Aren't they amazing? Seriously, that is the BEST recipe. I think they taste even better when you make them at home. Plus you get to eat all the crumbs. :) Oh, I totally miss the Job Lot.

The ones I visit most often are in Cranston - on 2 near the exit off 10 - and in Seekonk on route 6. But I've also gone to the one near N. Main in Pawtucket and one in Warren. But I have to hold back sometimes! I think we have more jars of jam than I have pairs of socks at this point! (It has a designated shelf in the cabinet).

Newport, NH (better known as "Where?") has one, although it's not as well stocked as the actual Ocean State ones. I usually get Bahlsen Hit Cookies and random pasta. (my Captcha says "Senate deadbeats". Odd) Interestingly, Job Lot has made it up here to the sticks of NH.
