Some good deals at Lowes Foods

Just got back from a trip to Lowes and there were a couple of good deals I wanted to mention.

Knorr pasta or rice sides are on sale for 5/$5. With a $0.75/2 Q it makes them $0.25 each. Although, if Harris Teeter or Lowes ever do triple coupons, these are free so you might want to save your Qs.

Quaker mini rice cakes are on sale for 4/$5. With a $1/1 Q it makes them $0.25 each. Since it's a $1 Q, it won't double or triple, so this is a pretty great deal considering the regular price is $2.35 each!

There's also a $0.50/1 instasave coupon on their website for their new line of organic jarred baby food (sniff, sniff, they don't sell earth's best anymore) which is on sale for $0.79 each making 1 jar $0.29.

Happy shopping!

Even the experts agree

Free Del Monte tomatoes at Lowes

Lowes Foods has Del Monte no salt added diced tomatoes on sale this week for 4/$3 making them $0.75 each. There was a coupon in the paper recently (don't know which week) for $0.40 off one, which doubles making the tomatoes free!

Great deal on ice cream

I just got a great deal on Edy's ice cream at Food Lion. I was just running in to get some ice cream for dessert and they had a hand written sign on the icre cream freezer that said:

Edy's Ice Cream
Buy 1-2 = $4.99 each
Buy 3 = $3.99 each
Buy 4 = $2.99 each
Buy 5 = $1.99 each
Buy 6 = $4.99 each

So, of course, I bought 5 and paid the same amout I would have for buying 2. Buy 2 get 3 free is a pretty great deal!

For 5 gallons of ice cream and a small container of Reddi Whip whipped cream I spend $12.18 and saved $15!!! That's a 55% savings without even having any coupons!!!
