This Week's Hot Grocery Deals (IMHO)

We have new sales starting today at our Boulder Sprouts and Whole Foods stores. I suspect Vitamin Cottage may have switched from their lengthy sales lasting six weeks or so to small weekly ones, and if that's the case, I'm afraid I just don't have time to follow yet another store every week. In any case, here's what's looking good to me now.

In Sprouts' new sale through March 4th, value packs of boneless skinless chicken breasts are $1.99 a pound, baby back ribs are $2.99 a pound, fresh farmed Atlantic salmon fillets are $5.99 a pound, their stuffed chicken breasts are $3.99 a pound, grill packs of Rosie organic chicken are $3.49 a pound, and there's a fresh sausage bonanza, with all bulk $2.99 a pound and all links $3.99 a pound.

In organic produce at Sprouts, some Earthbound Farm salads are BOGO, Braeburn and red delicious apples are both 98 cents a pound, one pound clamshells of strawberries are just $2.98 each (think spring while the snow continues to fly!), celery bunches or red bell peppers are just 98 cents each, broccoli is $1.50 a pound, grape tomatoes are $2.50 a pint, and green curly kale or red chard are both $1.50 a bunch. Elsewhere in the store, the big news is a big BOGO sale, with lots of items buy one get one free. Items I'm seeing that appeal to me include Cascadian Farm cereal, 15 ounce Westbrae organic beans, Newman's Own fig Newmans, Odwalla juice, Voskos Greek yogurt, and Eat Well hummus (all saying "select varieties").

Meanwhile, Whole Foods' new sale through March 10th has me enthused about several items, most particularly select varieties of my favorite Imagine organic chicken broths for just $2 a box, yahoo! Pineapples with the Whole Trade pedigree are $2.98 each, and organic cluster tomatoes are $3.98 a pound. Their very good fresh Icelandic cod is worth $12.99 a pound, $3 off, while poblano pepper jack salmon burgers are $3.99 each. Bella Terra organic San Marzano tomatoes are $3.50 a can (not specified but that should be the big one), which offers opportunities for the Whole Creamery fresh ovoline mozzarella at $3.99 for 12 ounces. Their own Two Bite desserts are $4.49 a tub which is only 50 cents off, but any time they put those front and center, it's a temptation, plus they might be sampling them. Finally, my favorite liquid hand soaps for the kitchen, Mrs. Meyers, are $3.99 each, $1.50 off, and while I'm not familiar with it, Weleda Skin Food is a whopping half off at $9.99 each.
