[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 368614, member: 805"] k, at BJ's, they put their meat on 50% on the "sell by" date. I got a pack of 12 HUGE boneless skinless chicken breasts for $9 last week! Sometimes there is nothing reduced, but other times you can get some really good deals. I would definitely watch the sale flyers and also get to know when the local markets have their half off mornings (just asks the butcher next time you are at the super market). I don't buy a whole lot of meat, especially since I started doing the GI thing - the meat is a very small (at the most, 25% of the meal) part of your meal. But I do buy 90% of what I need at the warehouse stores (BJ's/Costco) because of the savings. I also buy most of my greens (like a pack of 3 romaine hearts - I have salad every day) there as well. As far as produce goes - the farmer's markets are wonderful this time of the year. I went to one out north on Friday because I was making gazpacho. Look at what I got for $13 - 9 tomatoes, 4 white peaches, 1/2 pound of heirloom cherry tomatoes, 4 hot peppers, 3 cucumbers, 3 yellow squash, 2 vidallas, and some fresh green beans! They are a great source of reasonable delicious fresh produce through the fall. Glad to hear you got the food assistance and are off the spaghettios! If you have any cans left, my difficult child would love them - lol!!!!! Sharon [/QUOTE]
