When it comes to grocery stores, it\u2019s often hard to find the best stores that have great product value or have great produce.<\/p>\n<p>Covid-19 has changed the nature of grocery shopping since March of 2020. Uncertainty has led to anxious shoppers hoard supplies. Of course, grocery shopping hasn\u2019t stopped but the nature of shopping has certainly changed. The act of buying will never stop but how we buy has and will certainly evolve more.<\/p>\n<p>With Ramadan already here, you must shop all vital items without paying extra bucks. For this purpose, the top 5-budget friendly grocery places are listed in this article.<\/p>\n<h4>1. Metro Cash and Carry (Islamabad)<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4792\" src=\"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/521eeb8692d9f.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/521eeb8692d9f.jpg 800w, https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/521eeb8692d9f-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/521eeb8692d9f-768x461.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/h4>\n<p>What I love about Metro is the fact that it\u2019s a nice mix between a market and a supermarket. I always find whatever product I am looking for without having to visit any other store. Metro\u2019s freezer section is unmatched. Metro focuses on customer comfort and ease. It\u2019s easy to find everything under one roof. You can find vegetables, fruits, meat, electronics, crockery, clothes, shoes, literally everything under one big roof.<\/p>\n<h4>2. Imtiaz (Islamabad &amp; Rawalpindi)<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4793\" src=\"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/imtiaz-super-store-revolutionizes-itself-with-a-new-outlook-1597489855-2557.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"532\" srcset=\"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/imtiaz-super-store-revolutionizes-itself-with-a-new-outlook-1597489855-2557.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/imtiaz-super-store-revolutionizes-itself-with-a-new-outlook-1597489855-2557-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/imtiaz-super-store-revolutionizes-itself-with-a-new-outlook-1597489855-2557-768x511.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/h4>\n<p>With more than 15 branches in 6 different cities of Pakistan, Imtiaz Superstore has been a pioneer in the retail industry of Pakistan. Imtiaz aims to provide the best shopping experience to its customers. The products provided aren\u2019t just affordable but super fresh. I find the food section pretty attractive for the price point. You can get any food item whether it\u2019s a salad or pasta under 300 rupees. Imtiaz is reasonably priced as compared to any other grocery store in Islamabad.<\/p>\n<h4>3. Al-Fateh (Islamabad)<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4794\" src=\"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/marketing-parensentation-36-638.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"638\" height=\"479\" srcset=\"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/marketing-parensentation-36-638.jpg 638w, https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/marketing-parensentation-36-638-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 638px) 100vw, 638px\" \/><\/h4>\n<p>When it comes to a great environment, amazing deals, attentive staff, and all-under-one-roof-criteria, Al-Fateh has it all. From fruits and vegetables to perfumes, makeup, clothes, electronics, Al-Fateh makes sure that you have an amazing experience every month. Al-Fateh always has amazing deals going on that lets you save money and lets you make your grocery experience less hectic.<\/p>\n<h4>4. Save Mart (Islamabad &amp; Rawalpindi)<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4795\" src=\"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/save-mart.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"488\" srcset=\"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/save-mart.jpg 960w, https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/save-mart-300x153.jpg 300w, https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/save-mart-768x390.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/h4>\n<p>Located in several areas of Rawalpindi and Islamabad, save mart has the motto, \u201cGrocery for people, not for profit\u201d.\u00a0 If you want your grocery items to be locally sourced, and organic, save mart is the best place to go. It is extremely reasonable and has a huge variety of products to choose from. Prices are great and there are always a bunch of deals going on.<\/p>\n<h4>5. Punjab Cash and Carry (Islamabad and Rawalpindi)<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4796\" src=\"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/512x512bb.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"512\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/512x512bb.jpg 512w, https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/512x512bb-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/512x512bb-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/h4>\n<p>Well, I wouldn\u2019t say that Punjab Cash and Carry is the best but it does the job. If you want to find basic items, it\u2019s the right place. It\u2019s not the kind of grocery store that gets you excited but it\u2019s the kind of grocery store that does the job well.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are a bunch of grocery stores in Islamabad but finding the right one that is light on the pocket [&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn btn-secondary understrap-read-more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/top-5-budget-friendly-grocery-stores-in-islamabad-to-stock-up-for-ramadan\/\">Read More&#8230;<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> from Top 5 Budget-Friendly Grocery Stores in Islamabad to Stock Up for Ramadan<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":10041,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_glsr_average":0,"_glsr_ranking":0,"_glsr_reviews":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[75],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4779","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-food-tour"],"img_urls":{"thumbnail":["https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Untitled-design-8-150x150.png",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Untitled-design-8-300x157.png",300,157,true],"large":["https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Untitled-design-8-1024x536.png",640,335,true],"full":["https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Untitled-design-8.png",1200,628,false]},"author_name":"Alina Mubarik","categories_name":["Food Tour"],"title_text":"Top 5 Budget-Friendly Grocery Stores in Islamabad to Stock Up for Ramadan","related_stories":"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts?filter&per_page=4&categories=75&exclude=4779","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4779","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4779"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4779\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10041"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4779"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4779"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/foodnama\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4779"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
