Have early Black Friday deals spread to grocery stores? I cracked open my weekly grocery flyer and couldn’t believe the deals! I read the flyer each week so I’m familiar with what is a “good” price for many items. This week’s deals are so amazing I am waking up early to hit my local Stop & Shop before work. Here are the deals I hope to bring home.
Land O’ Lakes butter is 2 for $5. Normally 1 pound boxes start at $4, plus I’ve got a coupon. I’ve been considering upgrading from the store brand to a high end line since I heard you can really taste the difference. Incredibly, the ad does not mention a limit so I am going to stock up big time. Butter freezes great!
A 5 pound box of seedless Clementine tangerines is $4.77. Last week I paid $7 so I guess the small orange fruit is finally in season. I’ve been eating three a day so I am ready for the new 5 pound box. Clementines are my favorite winter fruit.
Yams are 2 pounds for $1. I don’t follow yam prices as much, but I suspect this is a decent deal. Yams are super easy to cook. Like potatoes, wash, poke, and shove in the oven.
Nestle chocolate chips are 2 for $4, which is not an incredible price, but still very low for my area. I bake a lot around the holidays so I won’t have any trouble using 3-5 bags.
The absolutely best deal and main reason why I am going to wake up early on Friday is for a 14-piece Pyrex glass storage set for $15. I’ve been wanting to switch from plastic storage to glass for health reasons (apparently plastic can be carcinogenic when microwaved). A smaller set sells at Target for $38. THIS IS A HOT DEAL!
If my total hits $80, I have a Stop & Shop $5 off coupon. Plus, I’m earning points toward big gas discounts. Wish me luck Friday! I hope I get the Pyrex set!
Welcome to Bargain Babe! I’m Mara, and I’m so glad you’re here. I am an obsessive bargain hunter and penny pincher, and I am determined to live a full life without EVER paying full price.
Too bad you don’t have a Market Basket near you, those are their everyday prices. Do you have a Costco or Bj’s membership(they accept all manufacturing coupons)? You can get 4 (1 lb )boxes of butter for approx 7.99.
Do they have a website and can you order it online for that price? If so you might be able to combine codes and the sale to come out just as well. If not, be there when the doors open! At least around here, in AL, stores tend to get only a ouple of the best deals to get everybody in the stores, and they’re always gone when I get there!
@Kristin Great idea! I’ll have to check if my local Stop & Shop offers online delivery. I never thought of that. Thanks!
I wish we had a Stop & Shop here. I think that the Pyrex set is a great deal. And clementines are my favorite winter fruit also, (I can eat a 5 lb. bag of them a week) And the Nestles would be great! Have fun Stocking up and I hope you get the Pyrex set!!!
I have no time for people who eat like pigs and then look for magic pills, diets and programs. If you eat a lot of, you’ll be fat no mater what. And i am not particularly slim but I do run and feel healthy, without feeling hungry all the time. Get a grip people!
