This Week's Hot New Deals (IMHO)

We have new sales starting today at our Boulder Sprouts and Sunflower, while last week's sales continue at Vitamin Cottage (just through the 9th) and Whole Foods (through the 12th). I suspect Alfalfa's isn't advertising any sales right now - they didn't have a flyer when I was in the store a few days ago, and they haven't put new sales up on Facebook, while they have taken the old ones down. Here's what appeals to me in this week's sales (remember, it's always IMHO):

Fresh wild Alaskan sockeye salmon update: both Sprouts (through the 13th) and King Soopers (with card through the 12th) are advertising it for $9.99 a pound.

Other deals I like at Sprouts through the 13th include chicken tenders for a very low $1.88 a pound, marinated chicken kabobs for $2.88 a pound, and I'm jumping around the room about fresh wild caught California halibut filets for $9.99 a pound. In organic produce, yellow peaches or nectarines are $1.99 a pound (matching Whole Foods on the peaches, but the ones I got from WFM last week were the most beautiful I've ever seen), cantaloupe or honeydews are 88 cents a pound, red delicious apples are 99 cents a pound, yellow onions are 77 cents a pound, broccoli looks good at $1.69 a pound, and green onions are just 49 cents each. Cheese is also looking very good, with four shapes of fresh mozzarellla at $3 for eight ounces, Rondele cheese $3.99 an 8 ounce cup, bulk hot pepper jack $3.99 a pound, and shredded parmesan or romano at $5.99 a pound.

At Sunflower through the 13th, I'm liking bone-in ribeye steaks for $5.99 a pound ($7.99 a pound for boneless), pork spare ribs at $2.99 a pound, and 93% lean grass fed ground beef for $4.99 a pound. (They're advertising a "sale" on chicken tenders for $3.99 a pound, but Sprouts has them for $1.88 a pound.) In organic produce, red and black plums are $1.99 a pound, green cabbage is just 69 cents a pound, green onions are 69 cents a bunch (49 cents at Sprouts), red onions are 99 cents a pound, three packs of romaine hearts are $2.50 each, and two pound bags of carrots are $2. I'm excited about select Chobani Greek yogurts at $1 each or Brown Cow yogurts for 69 cents each. They have hot pepper jack cheese for $3.99 a pound, matching Sprouts, and a three year aged cheddar is $6.99 a pound.
