JoAnn's Grocery Picks for the Week

I started this at 7:30 this morning and now it's 14 hours later. Someone keeps closing my program.

As Liesel said, check out Walmart, they are having an anniversary sale and there are lots of 50% off items.

Walmart

Armstrong cheese blocks 750g $5.97!! That's only $7.22 for a 908g block. Even better than NoFrills was last week. I'm there!!

Mini-wheats or froot loops $2.47

Pyrex baking dishes with lids 50%off

Corelle open stock dishes 50%off

Meghan - did you get your portable dvd yet? $48.42 if you haven't.

16GB memory stick $19.93

HP all-in-one deskjet printer $38.84

Nintendo Dsi $109 Sure beats last year's price of $200+

Jim and Amy, here's your tuna.

IDA Drugs (Westpark and Mountview) Admiral flaked or chunk 2/$.99

Sobeys

strawberries $1.69/lb Not bad for off season

russet potatoes $2.99/10 lb bag I don't like white potatoes, but the price sure is right

Compliments flour 10lb bag $5.99 As I mentioned a few weeks ago, wheat prices are going to stay high for a while, so this is a good price. I'd stock up if you can afford it.

cantaloupe 2/$3.00

Johnsonville smokies $4.99 BOGO makes them $2.50/pkg

Superstore - free butter basted turkey with $250 purchased. I get one of these every year when they have this offer and they are good turkeys. I haven't purchased a turkey for years.

orchard run McIntosh apples $.66/lb

sugar snap peas 2lb bag $5.98

tomatoes on the vine $.86/lb

Casa Mendosa tortillas (I call them wraps so as not to be confused with taco shells)

Colgate toothpaste 100mL $1.00 This is the best I've seen for a while. What ever happened to $.50/tube???

Post sugar cereal $2.49 (Honeycomb, alpha-bits, etc)

Nestle flavored water $7.99/35 bottles. This is usually $11.89 or around there.

Ivory or Dawn ultra dish detergent $1.49

Jameison vitamin C 500mg $2.79/120's I noticed that all Jamieson vitamins are 55% off at Walmare, so I don't know how that compares.

Ivory bar soap $1.99/10bars

Softsoap liquid refills $2.99/1.65L

All KitchenAid appliances 30% off. Anyone wanting to do some early Christmas shopping? That's only $280 for a stand mixer - $50 mail in rebate. $230!!

Baker's Ssecret bakeware 40% off

Corningware bakeware 40%off

Rubbermaid food storage 20-50% off

NoFrills

boneless pork loin $1.00/lb What's wicked awesome!!!

green or red grapes $1.00/lb

White swan toilet paper 12 double rolls $3.00. That's only $.25/roll. My target is $.50. But I have never used this brand, so buyer beware.

Hunt's Thick and Rich pasta sauce $1.00

McIntosh apples 5lb bag $3.00. That's $.60/lb

baby carrots $2.00/2lb bag

McCain frozen fries 2kg bag $1.00

Blue cod fillets $2.00/400g pkg. Angela, if you read this blog, tell me what blue cod is please. If any of the rest of us land lubbers knows the answer, I'd like to know. I love fish, but before I buy a cart full, I want to know what I'm buying.

If anyone buys rye bread, it's $1.00/loaf. I suspect that's good.

That's all the damage for one week. Except I haven't seen Co-op or Save-on. If there is anything noteworthy, I'll try to let you know.
