Using the coupon for SPAM wouldn’t that make each one 1.99ea?

Laura at TenThingsFarm says:

The price for Spam should be 1.99, yes? Probably a 3 or 4, rating wise. :)

The La Victoria Salsa is 24 ounces compared to Albertson’s 16 oz.

Is the sale on Kraft Singles a good deal? They are 2.49 with the Safeway coupon. Thank you!

  I didn’t really think so… That’s a pretty average price.

I was just at Safeway at Union/Academy and they had tons of milk marked down 50% so that means it’s only $1 per gallon! I got 2 gallons myself because that’s all we can drink before the expiration. Most of the gallons expire on June 9 which gives you some time to drink it all up. Also, I bought the blueberries that are $3.99 and they are so delicious!!

Are he blueberries a weekend only sale?

  OK, and I just realized that the organic blueberries at King Soopers (11 oz for $3.99) are a really great deal, especially for organic! That’s the equivalent of paying $1.59 for those 4.4 oz containers that were $0.99 at Sunflower (NON-organic) a couple of weeks ago.
  
  (I really hate how blueberries seem to come in all sorts of package sizes – have to do math every time I need to rate them. :)

Amy, no they are on sale the full week, but my Safeway had run out so I got a raincheck so that I don’t have to keep running back to see if they are in stock.
