This Week's Sales

I had to use this Mexico picture today....
This Week's Sales
Each week I like to post the best deals from the common flyers and stores. Why? Well, one of the best ways to slash your grocery bill is to only buy things that are on sale. It means menu planning according to what's on sale. Where we live it is quite easy to do all the main stores in a fairly short loop. If there is a store that has an item I want that's off the beaten path I try and put it in with other errands in that area. I am really enjoying the Reebee flyer app as I can see the upcoming week's flyers on Thursday and so straddle the 2 weeks to get the best possible deals. Along with the week's sales I always look for the clearance and marked down foods to stretch things even further.

This Week's Sales and I've Got Lots of Bananas!

How's your summer going? Mine's great! It's been hot...which I love...a lot! I have been slacking on the weekly sales because I'm outside....always, every minute it's sunny if I can. I need sun lots of sun. My friend told me we are sun hoarders....yes...my name is Sue, I am a sun hoarded. So, right now I have the lap top in the shade while keeping my self in the sun. Just my hands are shady, it's perfect. I can write for long periods of time like this...sorry...Anyways, enough of that. Here's what happened this week. My sister in law and I took a trip to Quality Greens to get blueberries..10lbs for $9.99. While we were there we looked in the clearance, of course. We found this box of bananas. $7. I asked the cashier if she would entertain me and weigh it. Almost 27lbs... .26/lb! There were some nice yellow ones in their too! We split the box and each paid $3.50. What did I do with all those bananas you ask?

Even my food pics need to be done outside now.

Some of them I just peeled and put straight into Ziplocs to freeze. I will use them for smoothies and banana bread and muffins.

The ones that  are spotted are sweetest and best for drying. I sliced them quite thin and dried them. It took about 8 hours.

I kept some of the ripe ones and made a few loaves of America's Test Kitchen Banana Bread. It's the best recipe I have found so far! Note to self. I need to blog the recipe!

This week at Safeway there are a few interesting deals.
Buy 4 bags of chips for $10 and get a free 12 pack of pop! Don't forget to use the coupons from the Pepsico coupons. I found them in Superstore by the pop.
