[ grocery ] :: weekly deals (not-so) sneak peek!

I just got a chance to check out the weekly grocery deals at my usual stores. All I have to say is - go big or go home! I'll be buying a ton of apples (ok, not a ton but probably 12 lbs) because they are The Hubs' favorite after-work snack. They're healthy. They're wholesome. If he eats them, I will buy them.

It's a brand new week of grocery deals! Here are some of my picks for items that I'll be stocking up on. Go to Southern Savers to see other deals - maybe there is something you need on sale.

Aldi: Weekly ad here. Remember: Aldi does not accept coupons, and you need to bring your own bags and a quarter! See my guide here. Get your chicken and apples this week! These prices are crazy good.

Fresh Family Chicken Breasts (5 lb pack): $1.89/lb 
Kirkwood Chicken Drumsticks or Thighs: $1.19/lb
80% Lean Ground Beef: $2.79/lb

Gala, Granny Smith, or Fuji Apples (3 lb bag): $0.66/lb
Pears (2 lb bag): $0.66/lb
Valencia Oranges (4 lb bag): $1.89/lb
Pineapple: $0.99 each

Not only are there great fruit prices, there are new lower prices on pasta, soups, and broth! If you didn't get a chance to stock up on broth from Publix this week, head over to Aldi!

Target: Weekly ad here. Check for coupons on these items to save even more! I started using the Target mobile coupons last week - you just text the code to the provided number and you get a link for coupons on your smartphone! The cashier scans the code and the savings are automatically applied. Cartwheel is also a really nifty way to save at Target - sign up, select your deals, and print out a special code to be scanned at the register.
