This Week's Deals

Just a little more clarification on how something makes it to my deals list.  If I can get it cheaper than I could at Costco or Sam's, it is considered a deal.  Otherwise, I have my list of things I normally buy there because they are always cheaper....shredded cheese, milk, eggs, Ziploc bags, beef jerky, canned chicken, chips, bagged lettuce.  One thing that might interest you, I NEVER buy cereal in bulk.  It is not cheaper and I don't like dealing with bags vs. boxes.  Also, I don't think something is much of a deal unless it is close to 50% off.  With that in mind, here is what I liked from the ads this week.

Harmons: red seedless grapes .98 lb, Aquarius bottled water $2.50, Aquafresh toothpaste $1, Arrid deodorant $1, Don Julio tortilla chips $1, Lawry's bottled marinades $1, Tree Top apple juice $1, Gatorade .69 (must buy 10 and use coupon in ad), Life or Cap'n Crunch (big boxes) $2.50, Flipz chocolate covered pretzels $1, Dole frozen juice $1, Mrs. Cubbison's croutons $1.

I didn't really have a stock-up item of the week but I think my store pick would be Reams.  I know I told you last week that I didn't love shopping there but they have some good produce prices and I am going to make something for dinner that involves avocados!
