Happy Ad Sunday
I’m just going to get to it here, since I’m so late. Believe me, I feel badly that I haven’t told you about the 69c/lb chickens at Randalls. Because that’s a smoked chicken taco party on the cheap, right there. I was distracted. There was the whole Hundred Days thing, and I think that meant we were all gonna die? And then there was all this parenting to do. So I got delayed. Because I also spent a non-zero amount of time laughing at this:
It’s funny once you’re not in charge of diapers.

Mothers Day is for Meat, apparently. Steaks are on sale all over town. I didn’t see any great deals on prime, so choose your favorite cut and pick a store, it’s probably on sale.
HEB has their chicken fajitas (breast or thigh) for $1.97/lb, and the club pack 80% ground chuck for 2.77/lb. These are near-permanent prices, so I’m deciding not to list them all the time.
Highlights this week: mangos, avocados, strawberries, bacon and Oak Farms ice cream.

Weekend shoppers, I’m here! Have no fear!
Midweek shoppers, I totally let you down. I want to blame the opera, because that sounds super cultured and educated, but it was more I wanted to watch Blacklist and Scandal. I will try to grow up.

Berries! Daffodils! Yes, it was Summer for a couple of days last week, but we’re back to Spring, which is my favorite season. Bluebonnets, everything turning green, & BBQ meat sales–all great Spring things!
This week asparagus, sausage, strawberries and mangos are all cheap. Ham is cheap all over because it’s Easter, which is all about Jesus and ham. Cheap citrus is gone, but a couple stores still have sacks of grapefruit if you want more.
Also some big news:
So celery is less than a buck at Sprouts! Get out and celebrate National Celery Month!

Happy Ad Wednesday!
Randalls is upping their ‘certain days’ game, continuing their effort to be the most complicated store to get a deal at. The card is a pain, but it’s there and I’m used to it now. The app is just plain irritating–making me use my poor old phone to get 50c off salad dressing doesn’t make me happy to be where I am! A few months back they added limits, last week adding lower AND upper limits. Now, not only to they have Friday-only, but 3-day-only deals. Even people like me, who live close and use them for convenience on certain products are going to wear out on this soon!
We’ve got stone fruit showing up cheap this week, with eggs, mangos and grapes making a decent showing. In the meat department, pork and chicken are at normal lows,with nothing at a stock-the-freezer price. Asparagus is here, which means all the great spring deals are just getting started!
Note: Grapes are cheaper at Randalls. Organic apples are super cheap at Sprouts. Mangos are cheapest at Fiesta (though still cheap at HEB). Don’t buy these things elsewhere this week.
cutting through the chaos, for the Cheepsters!

It’s Citrus Time!
There’s not a song for it, like Hammer Time, but it’s still a good thing. Fresh juice is cheap to make at home, and I can easily get everyone their daily dose of Vitamin C. Sprouts and HEB both have great deals on citrus this week. $4.98 for fifteen pounds of grapefruit is a lot of fruit for under $5!
Hopefully you also find some things for the freezer this week. Boneless skinless chicken breasts, pork tenderloin, and pork loin are all on sale at a few different places this week, and all freeze well.
Happy shopping, Cheepsters!

Hopefully you’ve finished off the last of the roast beast and are ready to shop!
Lobster tails are everywhere, with HEB/CM coming in cheapest. Get your bisque on, Cheepsters! ( I feel like that’s not a saying that will catch on. Doesn’t mean you shouldn’t see if you can work it into your everyday conversations). There are also good deals on boneless chicken, black eyed peas, and citrus.
This week’s got Randalls continuing the Fab!5 sale, where you need to buy five of certain items to get $1 off each. There are many to mix and match, the ad shows them in surprising combinations–cornbread mix and bottled water? If you want five, they’re 59c/ea! There are also some odd choices. Do you need five French Baguettes? Even the photo they’re using to advertise couldn’t deal with five, but if you want them, they’re at Randalls. Possibly on sale, but the ad indicates ‘Everyday Price’, as well as ‘Buy 5 save $1’ so it’s a mystery.
On to the sales! Remember to let Cheepie know if you find a great deal–you can find me on Facebook and Twitter in the sidebar.

Randalls entire front page this week is roasts, none of which hit a price point I’d suggest buying. Usually they’re more on the ball with their loss-leaders, since it’s the only reason sensible people walk in the door!
Fiesta’s got a hog head in the freezer if you need one, 99c/lb. Please share your photos with Cheepie if you decide to do this! It’s good for tamales, and if this is why you go buy one, I’m happy to taste-test. Just let me know where and when.
Berries and apples are the fruits my kids will be eating this week. I’ll also be buying pork tenderloin for a dinner this week and for the freezer. At Fiesta I’ll be getting spare ribs and black beans to stockpile. The bulk sale at Sprouts will be a great way for me to stock up on some of the things I need for cookies and granola bars: nuts, seeds, fruits.
I hope some of these sales are for things that you need for the pantry or freezer. Here’s the full list!

It’s $2 cheese time! I love $2 cheese time!
Sprouts had cheese for this price for several weeks back in the spring. How do I know it was spring? Because I just looked at the block of pepper jack I thawed out to see what the label said! I stocked up, because if it’s one thing that will convince my kids to eat something it’s to pile some cheese on top of it.
In the spring, there was one type on sale each week, alternating among colby-jack, pepper-jack, ordinary-jack and cheddar. For storage, frozen cheese will keep just fine, but it’s crumbly after thawing so not great for slicing.
I’m hopeful this is the start of a few weeks of this special!
one for you, one for me, one for you, two for me…

Unless you’re okay with me tearing up celery bunches to get the weight I want you should price it as an each.
