What LC food gets you happy when it is on sale?

I just noticed that Costco has Boursin (the best cheese ever) on a huge sale for the holidays. I got hooked in France where the school's cafeteria had it wrapped in foil like little butter pats. I never thought about that in my new LC universe. But without that French bread.... will need to figure out some new recipes (other than just plain out licking it off my fingers!)

What LC bargains are you happy to find?

    Steak for sure! But I will have to check out that sale on Boursin as I love that stuff. You could stuff it in chicken breast, pork chops or throw it in cauli-rice or mash! Not to mention as a smear on pepperoni...ok, I need to go get some now!

    Zevia for sure...always searching for coupons since it's so expensive. SweetLeaf Water Drops, I stock up when they are on sale. Otherwise, I buy most things I need at costco and I already feel like I'm saving money so I haven't really thought about it!

    I find the best prices for Zevia are at Shop Rite. Target is second, with occasional mark downs. Third is Stop and Shop, where a six pack is normally $7 but with some regularity goes to 2/$7. Of course everything but Target is probably a regional chain so mileage will vary. I haven't found any pricing online that makes it worth ordering.

    Just thought of another one... sardines. I've got about 15 tins in the cupboard right now.

    I always keep a lot of sardines on hand, but the king oscar jalapeno are my favorite and almost impossible to find around here. Plus, those are more expensive than the ones I usually buy.

    Garden Staters know about Pork Roll. We have it in the freezer and fridge.
    It's something you don't want to run out of. :)

    I don't have Shop Rite or Stop and Shop in my region but it's typically $4.99 for a 6 pack at my Cash Wise store. There is usually a $1.00 off coupon I can find which helps a lot! I forgot about Target carrying them! Thanks for the reminder!

    What is "Zevia"

    Zevia is a cola made with Stevia. It's now also caramel color free and it's not too bad. I was used to drinking diet coke so I feel so much better having this instead. Cola is my one special treat that I just love!
