King Soopers: grapes for $1/lb, good price on Reynold’s foil

Haven’t looked at Safeway yet, but it looks like this is a pretty slow week for grocery sales.  If you’ve got a good stockpile in your pantry, this would probably be a good week to make a quick trip to the store for milk and produce and then eat from your pantry.  It will help your grocery budget average out a ton!

I’m hoping we get coupons for Kraft barbeque sauce and McCormick Grill Mates soon – those are items that are usually free or close to it during the summer, and once they start going on sale we usually start seeing coupons!  Keep your eye on [scp] to see what coupons we’ll be getting on Sunday.

These deals are good 4/7 through 4/13.

Meat, Dairy, and Frozen

U.S.D.A. Choice Boneless Chuck Roast or Steak – B1G1 Free
Net cost at checkout: not sure, usually this sale makes it around $2.50/lb
Rating: 3 if it’s around $2.50/lb, a 4 if you can get it to $2 or less per pound.

Rating: 4

Colorado Proud Gallon Milk (gallon) – $1.99

General Grocery and Household

Ragu Pasta Sauce (16-26.3 oz) – $1.69
Rating: 2-3 – I would wait to see if we get a coupon, we can usually get this below $1 with the right sale and coupon.

Heinz Ketchup (40 oz) – $1.99
Rating: 3

Kraft Barbeque Sauce (18 oz) – $1
Rating: 3 – this often goes on sale for less during the summer, and is usually very cheap or free with coupons and catalina deals.  I’d wait unless you need it.

McCormick Grill Mates Seasoning (2.8-8 oz) – $1
Rating: 3 – wait for a coupon.

King Soopers Hot Dog or Hamburger Buns (8 Count) – $1
Rating: 3

Santa Barbara Salsa (14-16 oz) – $1.88
Rating: 4? – this is a pretty good price for “fresh” salsa.  King Soopers has this near the eggs and butter, not in the produce section like Wholly Salsa.

Smart Balance (13-64 oz, full line) – 50% off
Here’s some coupons to use: $1/1 Smart Balance Butter Blend Sticks
$1/1 Smart Balance Milk Product
$1/1 Smart Balance Sticks 3/21/2010 RP Insert
$1/2 Smart Balance Spreads 3/21/2010 RP Insert
Rating: hard to say, but it’s probably a pretty good deal at 50% off plus a coupon.

Hidden Valley Ranch Salad Dressing (16 oz) – $2.99
Use $2/1 Hidden Valley Farmhouse 3/14/2010 SS Insert
Net cost at checkout: $0.99
Rating: 5 – this coupon only includes select varieties, though.  There’s also an $1/1 coupon here (requires registration).

Reynolds Wrap Aluminum Foil (35-80 sf. Selected) – $2.99
Use $0.75/1 Reynolds Wrap Foil 3/21/2010 SS Insert
or $1/1 Reynolds Wrap Aluminum Foil (excluding 20, 25 and 30 sq. ft)
Net cost at checkout: $1.99
Rating: 4, I think, for the large square foot packages.  It doesn’t go on sale very often, so I think I’m going to stock up with a couple of rolls.

Scotch-Brite Sponges (3 ct. Selected) – $1.88
Use $1/2 Scotch-Brite Product 3/7/2010 SS Insert
Net cost at checkout: $1.38
Rating: 3 – we usually get the single sponges free several times a year, but this is a pretty good deal if you either didn’t get in on that or go through a lot of sponges!  Works out to $0.46 per sponge.

Snuggle Fabric Softener – $3.99
Use $3/1 Snuggle Fabric Softener 3/28/2010 RP Insert
Net cost at checkout: $0.99
Rating: 4-5 – could go for free before the coupon expires, but who knows. :)  Thanks, Jill!
