39) New Jersey

New Jersey may not be quite as pricey for groceries as neighboring New York, but shoppers there still pay almost 11% more than the nationwide average for their food. Local chain Kings Food Markets, along with Acme and Whole Foods Market, are the most expensive, though they do offer superior quality, while German newcomer Lidl, BJ's Club, Costco, Aldi, Walmart, and Target offer the best cheap deals.
