King Soopers weekly deals: April 1-7

King Soopers reeeeeeeally wants to fatten us up, because they’ve got another hot butter sale this week!   Maybe SlimFast will be on sale next week? :)

If you’re new to shopping at King Soopers, you’d probably find the King Soopers FAQ helpful.   By the way, unless I indicate otherwise, all the coupons are from newspaper inserts.   If it’s a printable coupon, I’ll link to it and if it’s from elsewhere, I’ll explain how I got it.

3 Day Sale – Friday, Saturday, and Sunday Only:

• 8 Piece Fried Chicken $4.99 – Good price. (Safeway has a similar special every week.)
• Ball Park Meat Franks 99 ¢ – Hooray, the hotdog sales are beginning!   Use $1/2 to get for 50 ¢ each.   Awesome price!
• King Soopers Buns 50 ¢ – Great price, and if you have one of the coupons from the recent King Soopers mailer they’re even cheaper!
• Kroger Mustard 50 ¢ – I do not pay for yellow mustard, period. You should be able to get it free during the summer.
• Nabisco Snack Crackers $1.77 – Buy Wheat Thins or Triscuit and use $1/2 to get them for $1.27 each.   Pretty good price, though they’re cheaper at Albertsons this week.

Meat, Dairy, and Frozen:

• Boneless Chuck Roast 50% off ($2.50/lb) – Good price, I wouldn’t pay more than this though.
• Mixed Pork Chops $1.49/lb – Good price.
• Note: hams and turkeys are on “sale” but I would wait another week to buy your Easter ham; we should get a better sale next week.
• Colorado Proud Milk $1.77/gallon – Best price in town this week!
• Land O Lakes Butter $1.99 – Use 55 ¢/1 newspaper coupon or 55 ¢/1 printable coupon from SmartSource.com to get for $1.   (Make sure you buy the variety the coupon specifies.)   This is a stockpile price for me!
• Bertolli Pasta Dinners $4.98 – Use $1/1 to get for $3.98.   A great price for these, I think.

Produce:

• Avocadoes 10/$10 – My target price, won’t pay more.
• Celery 79 ¢/lb – Is it just my imagination or did they just start charging by the pound instead of by the each for celery?   I don’t think this is a good price, but I could be wrong.   Celery experts, please comment!
• Cucumbers 2/$1 – Target price.
• Green Bell Peppers 69 ¢ – My target price, I won’t pay more for green peppers.
• Kiwi 3/$1 – You can get a better deal when they have bags of kiwi on sale for $1/bag.
• Organic Oranges 99 ¢/lb – A good price for organic, NOT for conventionally grown oranges.
• Organic Pears or Organic Apples (Granny Smith or Braeburn) 99 ¢ – A good price for organic or conventional apples or pears.

General Grocery and Household:

• Tree Top Apple Juice Buy One Get One Free + Free Dozen Eggs – Edit: At first I didn’t think this was a good deal because I didn’t think you could use a $1/2 coupon on a BOGO free item, but apparently you can – so use a coupon for $1 off two Treetop products and get the eggs free – works out to $2.79 for two bottles juice and 1 dozen eggs.   Thanks to those of you who helped me out on the coupon thing!
• Pillsbury Refrigerated Dough 4/$5 – I *think* the buy four save $1 sale is still going on; if so, these would be $1 each before coupons, and depending on what coupons you have and what varieties you buy, you could get them for 30-70 ¢. If anyone can confirm the buy 4 save $1 instantly promo is still going on that would be great!   (Edit: there are some Pillsbury coupons in the Coupons.com widget below.)
