Family Dollar even has coupons available HERE for their new Family Gourmet brands! The savings is significant event without the coupons!
The Taste Test
Family Gourmet Syrup vs. Aunt Jemima Syrup -- The kids actually chose the Family Gourmet brand over the leading brand.
Family Gourmet Berry Bunch O Crunch Cereal vs. Captain Crunch -- Everyone thought the leading brand was fruitier, but nobody turned down the Family Gourmet brand!
Family Gourmet Apple Juice vs. Mott's Apple Juice -- There was a distinct difference, but half of us liked the taste of Family Gourmet better!
Family Gourmet Coffee vs. Maxwell House Coffee -- My mom did this taste test for us. She could not tell the difference, which was interesting because she is a name brand buyer.
Family Gourmet Creamer vs. Coffee-mate Creamer -- We're not powdered creamer people, but we did find the taste difference so slight, we'd buy the Family Gourmet brand for the savings.
Family Gourmet Pancake Mix vs. Aunt Jemima -- Everyone liked the Family Gourmet brand just as well as Aunt Jemima!

we have a church pantry that we try to keep stocked for families that we know or hear about that needs help a 100.00 gift card would go a long way to fill in the gaps on things we need. I could use it also but there are others that need it more than I do. I can't stand the thought of someone going hungry. thank you!
I'd stretch it by pairing sales with store coupons and manufacturer's coupons!

I think you could stretch this gift card by buying more of the cheaper items instead of just a few bigger priced items, if that makes sense.
