This Week's Hot New Deals (IMHO)

We have new deals starting today at our Boulder Sprouts and Sunflower, while last week's specials continue at Alfalfa's, Vitamin Cottage, and Whole Foods (click those links for my reports). I might also have a chance to get to Lucky's this week.

The good news this week is that the Copper River salmon specials are really heating up. I'll do a separate post when I get to see more prices, but here's what's advertised as of today for fresh Copper River sockeye salmon fillets (in alphabetical order, as usual):

King Soopers: $13.99 a pound with card,
Safeway: $8.99 a pound club price (doesn't specify sockeye in ad),
Sprouts: $9.99 a pound.

Boneless New York steak wars: $9.99 a pound at both Sprouts and Sunflower through the 15th.

Chicken tender wars: $2.99 a pound at Sprouts, $3.99 a pound at Sunflower, both through the 15th.

In other new deals at Sprouts through June 15th, I'm excited about their bulk department sale, with 25% off mostly everything, including their excellent organic, Fair Trade coffee (and one's a decaf to boot). Boneless center-cut pork loin chops or roasts are stunningly good at $1.99 a pound. They have wild caught Alaskan cod for $7.99 a pound, and since it says "delivered up to 6 days a week," I'm presuming we're now talking fresh. Chicken Italian sausage are $2.99 a pound, whole or cut up chicken is $1.49 a pound, and 100% grass-fed organic ground beef, tip roast or steak are all $5.99 a pound (see Sunflower below for a non-organic grass-fed burger option). In organic produce, Italian squash (think zucchini) are good at $1.29 a pound, three pound bags of yellow onions are $1.99 each, three packs of romaine hearts are $2.49 each, D'Anjou pears are $1.49 a pound, gala apples are $1.29 a pound, and although we've seen it lower, organic celery is still pretty good at $1.49 each.

At Sunflower through the 15th, I'm interested in their all natural grass fed super lean (93%) USA ground beef sale for $2.99 a pound. All chicken sausage are very good at just $1.99 a pound, as are boneless pork loin chops for $2.99 a pound. There are good deals in organic produce as usual, with baby carrots $1.50 a bag, three packs of romaine hearts matching Sprouts with $2.50 each, cantaloupes or yellow onions 77 cents a pound, green cabbage 99 cents a pound, and six ounces of blueberries for $2.50 (but Vitamin Cottage has that size organic blueberries or raspberries for $2.50 all the way through July 9th). Annie's Naturals organic dressings are okay at $2.99 each (Vitamin Cottage has them for $2.49), and loving smoked foods, I'm interested in assorted apple smoked cheese at $5.99 for eight ounces.
