Weekend Sales At Whole Foods

Our local Whole Foods stores will offer us a duo of special sales this weekend (assuming Friday kind of counts as its start). For tomorrow only, their excellent cooked shrimp will be $9.99 a pound, $6 off its usual price. And for the whole weekend, tomorrow through Sunday, marinated chicken satays will be $5.99 a pound, $2 off. That presents a dilemma for me, as the Lucky's Market in Longmont is offering house-made chicken kabobs (purists would disagree, but satays and kabobs are all chicken on a stick to me, although a satay could be straight meat) for just $2.99 a pound all week. (The flyer for the Boulder Lucky's is offering Korean beef kabobs for $8.99 a pound instead.) The chicken at Whole Foods will have a fabulous pedigree, while that at the Longmont Lucky's is undoubtedly "natural," but still antibiotic-free. Tough choice.
