Stockpile Opportunity: Kraft Cheese

In the past few weeks, I’ve mentioned why I stockpile groceries and also told you some about the things I’m stockpiling. A few weeks ago, I stockpiled ground chuck while it was $1.69/lb and I also bought a few packs of boneless chicken breasts. It wasn’t the lowest price I’ve paid, but at $1.99/lb I decided to buy some for the freezer.
Also, last week I shopped at Harris Teeter while they were having their triple coupon sale. I ended up with about $160 in groceries for only $60. My cabinets are pretty full right now and other than fresh items (milk, bread, egg, lunch meat, fruit) there’s not a whole lot I need.
Today I did stop at Food Lion to pick up some milk and eggs and discovered that their Kraft cheese slices (12 oz package) are on sale 4/$5. You have to buy four packages to get the deal. Otherwise, it will cost you a bit more. I bought the four packages. With three kids home for the summer, I’m sure we’ll have no problem eating the cheese. Besides, the expiration date isn’t until December 2009.
I regret that I also missed out on Food Lion’s 2-day sale. I didn’t look at the flyer earlier in the week and missed out on buying Pampers Easy Ups for $7.99 . . . and you know I’d have a coupon to go along with that deal. Oh well.
Sometimes Food Lion’s prices vary by location, so it’s a good idea to check the online flyer. Good luck and happy stockpiling!
OOOhhh, I bet I have some coupons for $1 off cheese, so I will have to check it out
