Morgan Chomps regularly produces videos on the best finds at stores like Dollar Tree and Walmart as well as chain restaurants.
Recently, she revealed some of her favorite Great Value products at Walmart to her thousands of followers.
The Great Value brand is a store brand offered exclusively at Walmart, and it’s touted as one of the cheaper options for food products on the market.
Some might be skeptical of choosing the affordable store brand, but Morgan outlined her favorite Great Value products and why you should give them a try yourself.

1. Mac and cheese

First, Morgan shared an item designed for the foodies: Walmart’s Great Value mac and cheese.
There are a few mac and cheese products available through the Great Value brand: the Artisan Crafted and the Thick and Creamy packets.
The Artisan Crafted type comes in flavors like smoked gouda, Italian five cheese and garlic and herb.
This is very much the fancier option, Morgan said, noting that her favorites are the smoked gouda and garlic and herb varieties.

These mac and cheese servings go for just $2.12 in most stores, and Morgan strongly recommended you try them all out.
In comparison, Target’s similar Good & Gather parmesan or white cheddar mac and cheese is priced significantly higher at $4.59, making Walmart’s a steal in comparison.
If you’re looking for the more classic Kraft-style mac and cheese, Great Value still has you covered with its “Thick and Creamy” mac and cheese for just 43 cents.
The Kraft brand, however, prices its products at $1 so you’re still getting a decent amount of savings sticking with Great Value.
“You thought Kraft was cheap,” Morgan said. “Think again.”
Morgan added that despite the price difference, she believes the Great Value brand has more flavor than Kraft.
2. Chips

Moving on to another beloved food, Morgan included Walmart’s Great Value brand’s selection of chips as another you should not miss out on.
“Have you seen the price of chips lately?” Morgan said.
“I was in the grocery store the other day, and a bag of Cheetos was $5.”
Opting to stay more frugal, you could have Walmart’s Great Value Cheese Crunch (a Cheetos dupe) or its Nacho Cheese Tortilla Chips (if you’re a Doritos lover).
Likewise, potato chip enthusiasts have these offerings to select from: Great Value Jalapeno Flavored Potato Chips, Wavy Original Potato Chips and even its Corn Chips (both original and honey BBQ).
“I just tried them a week or so ago…Amazing,” Morgan said of the honey BBQ flavor specifically.
Price-wise, you can get a party-size bag of these chips for $3.12.
This is compared to a $15.99 party-size bag of Lays at the same store.
Even compared to Target’s Good & Gather brand, similarly sized chip bags go for at least $3.29.
3. Bread
Morgan had a secret to share with longtime Walmart shoppers.
“Some of the best bread at Walmart is not in its bakery section,” Morgan said. “It’s in the freezer.”
Namely, the Great Value Garlic Texas Toast.
“I know, I know, it’s frozen bread,” Morgan said. “But don’t knock it until you try it.”
Morgan said the product is the perfect item for garlic lovers, alongside the Great Value Breadsticks.
The breadsticks are priced at $2.16, while the Texas Toast goes for $1.88.
Comparatively, frozen garlic toast costs $2.39 at Target.
4. Hot pockets

When it comes to great value hot pockets, Great Value has you covered at Walmart.
Its ham and cheese-filled sandwiches go for less than $2 depending on store and location.
A traditional set of Hot Pockets goes for $2.99 at stores such as Target and Walmart.
“Honestly, I think I like the crust of these sandwiches more than a hot pocket,” Morgan shared.
In addition to ham and cheese, there’s also a pizza-flavored one.
5. Nutella dupe
5
It’s been a while since Nutella claimed the hearts of Americans across the country when it comes to breakfast and dessert dishes, but with Great Value, there’s a more affordable option.
Morgan shared she’s not generally the biggest fan of Nutella, but when the occasion arises, Walmart’s store brand hazelnut spread tastes identical and only costs $2.48.
A standard pack of Nutella, meanwhile, is priced at $4.99 for the same quantity.
All in all, by shopping Great Value, you can save somewhere between 50 and 80 percent on many items.
Other ways to save at Walmart
Another way to save on everyday items is by signing up for Walmart+.
Walmart+ is a membership with special savings and offerings once you sign up for one of two plans: the monthly plan of $12.95 or the annual plan of $98.
Customers who sign up for the Walmart+ membership score early access and grab online deals first.
Other perks include free delivery, free shipping with no order minimum, Walmart Rewards, and savings on fuel.
Additionally, the best time to look for clearance deals is during the change of seasons.
Every year specific items will go on clearance, so try monitoring inventory during certain times because some items will go from 50 percent to 75 percent to 90 percent clearance
Walmart regularly has these hidden clearance deals, and one shopper found a toddler item usually marked at $40 for just $4.
