We have new sales starting today at Sprouts and Sunflower, while Vitamin Cottage and Whole Foods continue from last week. Alfalfa's also should have a new set of sales today, but it looks like I'll need to get to the store to see what they are. So here are some highlights, based on what's in front of me.
Lobster tail wars (in time for Mother's Day): $5.99 for 5 ounce at Sprouts, $4.99 for 3.5-4 ounce at Sunflower, both through May 11th.
Tilapia wars: $6.99 a pound at Sprouts, $5.99 a pound at Sunflower, both through May 11th, but based on this NYT article, I'd check the country of origin first.
At Sprouts through May 11th, other deals that look good to me include natural cut up or whole chickens for $1.49 a pound (but see below for an organic option at Sunflower), boneless top sirloin steak for $3.99 a pound, grass-fed organic ground beef for $3.99 a pound (Sunflower also has grass-fed ground beef for $3.99 a pound, but the ad doesn't say organic), and fresh ground pork for $2.99 a pound. In organic produce, a one pound bag of carrots is stellar at 88 cents each, red delicious apples are 99 cents a pound (same at Sunflower), green onions are just 69 cents a bunch, Braeburn apples are $2.99 for a three pound bag, and russets are $2.99 for a five pound bag. If going for conventional watermelon, you can get a whole seedless one for $1.25. I really like Sprouts' bulk coffee beans (including organic Fair Trade decaf), so I'm happy to see it on sale for $8.99 a pound.
Deals that appeal to me at Sunflower through May 11th include an "ultimate steak sale," with several Harris Ranch cuts all at 40% off, organic whole chickens for $1.99 a pound, and 41/50 count cooked shrimp for $4.99 a pound. In organic produce, romaine lettuce looks good at $1.77 a head, broccoli and white cauliflower are $1.88 a pound, red delicious apples are 99 cents a pound (same at Sprouts), jewel and garnet yams are $1 a pound, and Hass avocados are $1 each. Like Sprouts, Sunflower is featuring conventional whole seedless watermelons, in this case at 17 cents a pound (how much does one watermelon weigh?). Also looking good, Lundberg rice chips are $1.50 (and check Mambo Sprouts for a 75 cents off coupon), my fave Crunchmaster crackers are $1.50 a bag (with $1 off coupon at Mambo Sprouts, practically free!), and select Pamela's cookies are $2.99 a box, plus more than 50 gluten-free products are 20% off.
Vitamin Cottage's long lasting sale is highlighted here, and I covered highlights of Whole Foods' new sale when it came out last week. Will spread some news about what's happening at Alfalfa's as soon as I get there.
