Another instant savings event at King Soopers this week

Man, you guys – I thought I’d get a break from the awesome deals at King Soopers, but they’re back with another instant savings event.

Here’s your deals for this week!

Meat, Dairy, and Frozen

USDA Choice Boneless New York Strip Steak $5.99/lb
Rating: 4 – boneless doesn’t go for less too often

USDA Choice Boneless Chuck Roast or Steak $2.99/lb
Rating: 2-3 – I personally wait until it hits $2/lb or less to buy

80% Lean Ground Beef (1 or 3 lb package) $1.79/lb
Rating: 4

Foster Farms Natural Chicken Drumsticks or Thighs 99¢/lb
Rating: 3 – this is about as low as this brand goes if you’re brand loyal.

Lobster Tails (4 oz) $4.99
Rating: 3-4 – for comparison, 4-5 oz tails are $4.97 at Sunflower and 2-3 oz tails are $2.50 at Albertsons.

Hormel Little Sizzlers (10-12 oz) $1
Rating: 4

Armour Lunchmakers $1
Rating: 3.5

Produce

Asparagus $1.39/lb
Rating: 5

ORGANIC Braeburn Apples 99¢/lb
Rating: 5

Stoplight Bell Peppers (3 ct) $2.99
Rating: 2-3 – these average to $1 each, which is a decent price for red and yellow, but not for green, so overall, I’d say this isn’t really a good value.

General Grocery and Household

Skippy Peanut Butter $1.88
Use 60¢/1 insert coupon
Net cost at checkout: 88¢
Rating: 4 – this sale lasts for a couple more months, btw. No rush!

Ocean Spray Juice Cocktail (64 oz) $1.98
Rating: 3

Bertolli Olive Oil (17 oz) $4.99
Rating: 2-3 – nowhere near the price-per-ounce we often get on sale at Sunflower Market, but if you’re brand-loyal this is a decent price.

Colgate Total Toothpaste $1.67
Use 50¢/1 insert coupon
Net cost at checkout: 67¢
Rating: 5

Buy 10 Save $3 Daytona 500 Savings Event

This deal works similarly to last week’s Mega Event, except this time it’s buy 10 items save $3 instantly. You can do it as many times are you want per transaction, just make sure you buy in multiples of ten.

A few good deals, but not nearly as many as there have been at previous sales like this!  Many of these items are kind of “out of season”, and we’ll see better prices on things like drink mixes, hotdogs, and condiments as summer gets closer.  There may be more deals in the store, so keep your eyes peeled for the special tags!

Prices below reflect instant savings for purchasing 10 items.

Gatorade Sports Drink (32 oz) 69¢
Rating: 4

Kraft Barbecue Sauce 69¢
Rating: 4

Kroger Salad Dressing 94¢
Rating: 4 – wouldn’t stock up *too* much on this, we can often get Kraft for this price or less in the summer

Pillsbury Grands Biscuits 99¢, plus earn a $4 catalina when you buy 6
Buy six and use three 30¢/2 insert coupons or printables from [coupons.com]
Net cost at checkout: $4.14 total (69¢ each), plus earn a $4 coupon to use on your next order!

Net cost at checkout: 79¢ each
Rating: 5

Banquet Dinners or Brown N Serve 70¢
Use $1/10 insert coupon (dinners only)

Net cost at checkout: FREE to 50¢
Rating: 5

Fritos or Frito Lay Canned Dips $1.69
Rating: 3

Rating: 2 – I’d wait for summer; these will go much cheaper. They were a moneymaker last summer, in fact!

Kraft Macaroni and Cheese (5 pack) $2.69
Rating: 4-5 – works out to 54¢ per box, a great deal.

Breyers Ice Cream or Klondike Novelties $2.48
Rating: 3 – cheaper at Albertsons

Purex Fabric Softener $3.29
Rating: 2 – Andrea said laundry detergent may also be included in this sale, and there may be a catalina deal to go along with it, too.  Haven’t confirmed that it’s working here, though.
