What's on Sale This Week?

It's the week before Easter, so there are some great deals to be had in the meat department. This is probably the best time of year outside of the Christmas/Thanksgiving season to pick up a turkey. My local Kroger has it on sale for $.99/lb. Ham is also on sale, and can be had for as little as a dollar a pound. Make sure you check for added sugars in the ham, as well as hidden gluten.

Since Easter is a time for big dinners and family gatherings, baking supplies are often found cheap. While most of it is off limits on a low carb, look for lowered prices on butter, cream cheese, and cooking oils.

Another thing I have seen on sale this week at both Kroger and Walmart has been frozen vegetables. Both stores had a 10 for $10 sale on Bird's Eye brand.

Since the Lenten season is now drawing to a close, it's also a good time to look for deals on fish and seafood.

Don't forget in most areas, farmer's markets are starting to open for business. Local Harvest and the USDA have listings for local farmers markets all over the US.

I hope you have a great shopping week! Find any great deals? Leave them in the comments.
