This Week's Hot Grocery Deals (IMHO)

We have a new sale starting today at our Boulder Sprouts stores, while the current one continues at Whole Foods through March 11th. There also should be something new happening at Vitamin Cottage, which I should check out. Again, per the staff person I spoke with there, Trader Joe's highlights particular products rather than discounting them, evidently because they can keep their prices low every day via their private label.  Here's what's looking good to me now.

The big news to me this week in Sprouts' new sale through March 12th is actually old news from last week: conventional asparagus continues at 98 cents a pound and we still have last week's big BOGO sale going on. A few items looking particularly good in the BOGO sale are some Earthbound Farm organic salad blends, Fage Fruyo Greek yogurts, Cascadian Farm cereal (also granola or bars), Pellegrino sparkling mineral water, Annie's Homegrown mac & cheese, and Stonyfield organic Greek yogurts.

In meat and fish at Sprouts, fresh whole chickens are just 99 cents a pound, ground chicken, pork or chicken breast are all $2.99 a pound, three types of chicken breast are also $2.99 a pound, previously frozen cod fillets are $6.99 a pound, and previously frozen wild Alaskan sockeye salmon fillets are $9.99 a pound. Organic produce is looking good as usual, with curly or Lacinato kale just 98 cents a bunch, one pound bags of baby carrots $1.50 each, green onions or cilantro just 68 cents each, Valencia oranges 68 cents a pound, celery $1.50 a bunch, and organic broccoli has bumped up a bit from this week's great price but is still pretty good at $1.50 a pound.
