Grocery ads are out today, at least in Denver and sale items have to do with Cinco de Mayo. So even if you don't take advantage of the holiday, do take advantage of the sales. Ground beef and avacados are on sale at Sunflower Farmers Market (avocados are 3/$1!) and some of the larger chains will be discounting the same next Wednesday. Look for refried beans and assorted Mexican kits to go on sale next week too. So you might want to stock up on some of the canned items then.
Be sure when you are shopping in your local market not to overlook the day-old section, usually at the back or corner of the store. This is where baked goods, and some other items, particularly seasonal, are found. Some items that are especially good are pastries, bagels, and some specialty breads. Steer clear of doughnuts, cream pies, and any canned goods with dents. If the pastry is a little stale, just pop it in the microwave for a few seconds and it will freshen right up. Toasted bagels will taste the same and are usually discounted up to half.
Happy bargain shopping!
