Randalls and Sprouts, the biggest loss-leaders in town, are having weekend sales. I didn’t get my weekly post out, but you’ve still got today to hit up some pretty great deals. This is a quick-n-dirty sum up, and anything else I think is a good deal I’ll try to add on.

Remember: If they are out of something you showed up to purchase at a certain price, all you have to do is ask for a raincheck. They will give you a little slip of paper saying you get to purchase X at price Y until date Z (usually about a month off). This is not a big deal and cashiers are totally used to people like me doing this all the time.

Here’s the hit list:

Randalls

raspberries, 6 oz. $1.50/ea

Blue Bell pints 99c/ea (must buy 3 or more)

coke, 7up, or pepsi 12pks $2.97/ea (must buy 4 or more)

Sprouts

red mangos 25c/ea

seedless watermelons $3.99/ea

bulk dried cranberries $1.99/lb

bulk Turkish apricots $1.99/lb

thick-sliced bacon $2.99/lb (at deli counter)

Berries and mangos both freeze well. Bacon keeps a long time, and dried fruit is basically the epitome of ‘storage food’. All of these are stock-up items at stock-up prices.

Cheep on!
