Relief Society & Coupon Deals

Last night there was a Relief Society meeting about alternative fuel sources, cooking with alternative fuel, and getting the three month food supply in place. Because of busy schedules this weekend, I won't be able to post any of this information on the blog until Sunday at the earliest. Don't worry, though, it will be coming.
 
I wanted to let you all know, however, that there are a couple really good deals on this weekend at local grocery stores. After all, part of food storage is saving money on weekly budgets so there's more to spend on storing up.  Remember, you certainly do not have to shop at these stores as many stores will price-match if you take the opposing store's advertisement in. This means that, regardless of where you shop, if you pick up the ad from these stores (they come in the mail for us) then you can get a price match anywhere you go shopping over the next three days. 
 
Anyhow, here are this weekend's deals:
 
SaveMart
- Roma Tomatoes are only $0.47 a lb.
- SunWorld Red Seedless Grapes are only $0.77 a lb.
- Chunky Ragu is $1.25 each, limited purchase of 4.
 
Vons (*with use of ClubCard)
- Foster Farms Fresh Whole Chicken is only $0.69 a lb. They limit you to 3 per person, so you may want more than one adult there if you're going to stock up on it.
- Lucky Charms are only $1.88 for an 11.5 oz. box.
- They're having a buy 1, get 1 free offer on Blueberries and Driscoll's Red Raspberries. YUM!
 
I hope these help some of you save a litttle cash this weekend!
 
Also, if anyone has any tips about ways that people can save money or improve their gardening and food storage, please e-mail me and I'll be happy to share them on the blog!
 
Best wishes,
