We have new sales starting today at our Boulder Sprouts and Sunflower, while Whole Foods' current sale continues through the 31st, and we're waiting on a new "Hotline" sale at Vitamin Cottage, reportedly coming the 29th. Here's what looks best to me in the new sales, IMHO as always.
At Sprouts through February 1st, the big thing for me is the second and final week of their Gluten Free Jubilee, with 25% off gluten free. Even if you have no gluten sensitivities (I don't), it provides a great stock-up opportunity on some fabulous products, like Nut Thins crackers, Pamela's gluten free cookies, and Lundberg rice packages. Also looking good this week are chicken breast tenders for $1.97 a pound (on sale at Sunflower for $2.99 a pound), ground chicken breast for $2.97 a pound (again whopping Sunflower, where it's on sale for $3.99 a pound), and boneless pork loin chops for $2.99 a pound (on sale at Sunflower for $4.99 a pound, but that might be their brand that promises to be antibiotic-free). In fish, fresh farmed Atlantic salmon is on sale, with steaks at $5.99 a pound and fillets for $6.99 a pound, and previously frozen wild sockeye fillets are also available at $8.99 a pound. Also, yummy stuffed clams are just 99 cents each. In organic produce, gala apples are 99 cents a pound (and pink ladies $2.99 for a three pound bag, effectively 99 cents a pound), blueberries are $2.50 for a container of mystery size, four pound bags of Valencia oranges are just $2.99 each, one pound bags of Cello carrots are 89 cents, leaf lettuce continues at $1.29 a head ($1.49 for romaine), pints of grape tomatoes are very good at $1.99 each, broccoli is $1.69 a pound, and red yams are $1.29 a pound. My favorite cups of Cascade Fresh yogurt are 25% off, but it's hard to know how that weighs in against Sunflower's very good price of 50 cents each this week.
At Sunflower through February 1st, steak looks to be the winner, with bone-in rib eyes for $4.99 a pound ($7.99 a pound for boneless). They have chicken tenders, ground chicken breast, and boneless pork loin chops on sale, but see above for significantly better prices at Sprouts for those. Organic produce looks good as usual, with cauliflower $1.50 a pound, spinach $1.50 a bunch, red or yellow onions and acorn, delicata, and kabocha squash all 99 cents a pound, one pound bags of baby carrots at $1.50 each, red, green, or rainbow chard all $1.50 a bunch, and hothouse tomatoes $1.99 a pound. My favorite Cascade Fresh yogurts are very good at 50 cents each, and select Earth Balance spreads are $3.49 each.
