Changed my mind about buying pre-cut vegetables after a talk with the produce guy at Kroger

I always thought bagged salads and pre-cut broccoli were a waste of money. But last Tuesday, the stock clerk at my Kroger in Springfield told me they mark down the pre-cut stuff after 6pm to clear it out. I grabbed a family size bag of stir fry mix for $1.80 versus the $3.50 I would have spent on whole veggies. Has anyone else found good deals on the discount produce rack?

Checking the discount rack at 6pm. Total game changer.

Did you check if the stir fry mix had any wilted bits in it? I tried that once with a bagged salad and ended up picking out half the leaves because they were already turning brown... still felt like I saved money but it wasn't as good as I hoped. The pre-cut carrots and onions seem to last longer for some reason.
