Big Y: Week of 5/16

There's a bunch of stuff that doesn't interest me this week at Big Y -- but the meat deal?? Count me in.  The last time they ran this, I made out like a bandit -- I bought only steak and pork chops (I figured that ground beef and sausages come around on great sales often enough -- so does chicken, although we don't eat it at our house.)  Concentrating on just those items, I bought the largest packages in the display case (yep, I really rummaged through them all and checked them)  I ended up with over $50 worth of meat for only $20.  Works for me!!  

Anyway --- this week's deals (remember the week has already begun -- and it ends on Wednesday)

Corn On The Cob - .25 ea (this isn't terrific, but for early corn, I'll do it)

Big Y Canned Veggies - .50 each

That's about it ---- I'm just going for the meat deal personally.

Kids Sunglasses: FREE at Rite Aid

Now, you know I'm not a huge Rite Aid gal --- but this is a deal worth considering doing......
Rite Aid sells Foster Grant Kid sunglasses for $5.99.  
This month there is a Rite Aid Values coupon for $5 off any Foster Grant Sun Glasses.  You watch the videos and then they give you access to the coupon --- print and use (warning -- there is a time limit on securing the coupon, don't change screens and multi-task!
That brings them down to $0.99 each, which even given kids propensity for losing sunglasses, is within my pricepoint.  
But to make it even sweeter, there is also Single Check Rebate #7 which gives you $2 back when you buy any one pair of Foster Grant Sunglasses and you can do this rebate twice.  
At that point, they're a $1.00 PROFIT --- Sunglasses, kids????
