I think lots of stores are realizing they need to adjust some prices for the economy. Kroger has some items 10 for 10 dollars.

Our HEB's have been running 5 for $5 and a thing called meal deal, buy a HEB ham or beef brisket fully cooked and get 8 items to go with it for a meal. They also have a combo loco buy one of something you get something free with it, like you buy creamer you get the coffee to go with it. They been doing this for a couple years now.

Just so happened to be in a Safeway last Friday and picked up the special of the day: a HUGE sub sandwich with a trio of deli meats and cheeses. Definitely a steal at five bucks! It was only two of us, so we didn’t get through the whole thing in one sitting, but it could have easily fed a family of four. Not bad for a quick and easy $5 meal.

You can get a slice of pizza and a very large soft drink for $2.50 at Dominick's (which is owned by Safeway).

Yesterday Safeway had Tuscan cataloupes (like they showed on Unwrapped a couple of nights ago)...buy one, get one free.

And, yes, they are the SWEETESS melons. Love the lines on the melon so you get a perfectly cut slice each time.

Oh wow is this like a lunch deal or something. On the 30th of this month you can be able to load coupons on your store savings card too

Today's safeway deal was Turkey Pot Roast (???? what the heck is that??) I wonder if Von's does the same. We were in So. Cal this past week and they told us that Von's and Safeway are one in the same.

Turkey pot roast hmmm.

well if it comes from the same part of the turkey as the pot roast on a cow ... gee I don't know, what would it be? The boney part of the wing? No wonder it's cheap.

I bought a pork shoulder for $8.75...it was huge!....4 Kaiser rolls (30 cents each) and cole slaw in a bag for $2.00 dressing included.

Feeds a family of four with meat left over...cost $2.99 a person.
Oh, I forgot...add BBQ sauce for a few cents more. Maybe $3.50 a person?

You can make really great food for little $'s if you know what to look for.
