We have a new sale starting today at our Boulder Sprouts, while the current one continues at Whole Foods through November 12th. There also should be a new one just started at Vitamin Cottage, and I need to get there to check it out. Here's what's looking good to me now.
In addition to its regular sale running through the 13th, Sprouts has some other happenings of note. Heads up that for today only, the 6th, you can buy a $100 Sprouts gift card for $89.99, effectively making everything you buy with it 10% off, in addition to any sale prices you're picking up. There's a limit of 10 cards per customer, if you really want to go wild. The other news is a 72 hour sale running this Friday through Sunday, where I'm tempted by bone-in country style pork ribs for just $1.29 a pound (so good in a smoker or on a grill, and the runner in the family just finished a major race, so we're loosening up a bit from the pasta, veggies, and tofu diet), and Sprouts' own organic salads at $2 for a five ounce package. Flash-frozen swordfish steaks are just $4.99 a pound, but I only found those once to be domestic, and the ones from Indonesia just don't taste as good to me. Also, with organic cranberries usually priced very high, if you're going conventional on them this fall, 12 ounce bags are just $1 each.
In Sprouts' regular sale running through the 13th, value packs of boneless skinless chicken breasts are $1.99 a pound, their own stuffed chicken breasts are $2.99 a pound, whole, split or cut up chickens are $1.59 a pound, boneless beef short ribs and stew beef are $3.99 a pound, and in previously frozen fish, wild Alaskan cod fillets are $7.99 a pound and wild Alaskan sockeye salmon fillets are $12.99 a pound.
In organic produce at Sprouts, one pound bags of baby carrots are $1.49 each, five pound bags of red, russet or Yukon potatoes are $3.99 each, bulk baby greens or spinach are great at $3.99 a pound (you see them $6.99 a pound elsewhere), and three kinds of organic pears are $1.49 a pound. Elsewhere in the store, my favorite Blue Diamond Nut Thins are $2.50 a box (I consider $2 a good sale, but this will do when my stock is low), and I'm really liking one pound bags of Lundberg's wild blend rice for $2.50. It definitely spiffs things up when a side of plain brown rice just looks like too dull an option.
I took a peek at the new sale at the Lucky's store in Longmont, and it looks like they're finally moving out of grand opening mode, as nothing struck me as being almost given away. Whole Dungeness crabs are probably a very good deal at $7.99 a pound, but eating whole crab is just way too much work for me.
