We have new sales starting today at our Boulder Sprouts and Whole Foods, while Vitamin Cottage should also have just started a new one that I'll need to check out. Here's what's looking good to me now.
At Sprouts through July 24th (where is this summer going?), I'm intrigued by fresh wild Baja halibut fillets for $9.99 a pound. I'll definitely check them out to see if it's the nice, thick, white halibut that I know and love, as Sprouts on occasion has carried a darker variety. (I imagine these are the same as the fresh central Pacific halibut fillets that Safeway is advertising at $11.99 a pound with card.) Sprouts continues to have fresh wild sockeye salmon fillets for $12.99 a pound, flash-frozen swordfish steaks are just $6.99 a pound (although I always check the country of origin and only buy those from the US or Canada), and in meat, even though we aren't particularly burger eaters, 100% grass-fed organic ground beef looks great at $4.99 a pound. Their very good stuffed chicken breasts are $3.99 a pound, country-style ribs are $2.49 a pound, and Rosie's Organic chicken grill pack is a great value at $2.79 a pound (it contains a combo of drumsticks and split breasts, ready for the grill).
In organic produce at Sprouts, broccoli is $1.49 a pound, red or green leaf or romaine lettuce are all $1.29 a head, celery is $1.29 a bunch, red or Yukon gold potatoes are $3.99 for a five pound bag, cucumbers are 88 cents each, bulk spring mix or spinach remain great at $3.99 a pound (nearly twice that elsewhere), blueberries are just $2.49 for a six ounce container, and red or black plums are $1.25 a pound. Elsewhere in the store, I'm liking select Delallo whole wheat pastas at $2.50 a one pound package, bulk coffee at $7.99 a pound (go for the Whole Trade organic at that incredible price), Stonyfield Greek yogurts at $1 each, and Horizon Organic DHA omega-3 milk at $3.49 a half gallon.
Once again, the link for the sales flyer on the Pearl Whole Foods website goes to a few features instead of the full flyer, so I'm pretty stuck until I get into the store to know about the new sale that runs through July 30th. Of the few items I can see, I'm liking garden fresh salmon burgers at $7.99 a pound, Icelandic smoked salmon at $5 a package (same as last sale), Country Natural Beef shoulder ranch steak at $4.99 a pound, and Whole Foods' own six inch Best Ever cheesecake at $17.99 each. Organic blueberries are $3.99 a pint, but it looks like Sprouts has the better deal there, if a pint is close to six ounces. *Update* I've looked it up, and a dry pint of blueberries is 12 ounces, making Whole Foods definitely the better deal.
