Monroe grocery and drugstore deals this week
I’m a bit off my posting routine. We were at Michigan International Speedway all day yesterday and I haven’t yet read my entire Sunday paper yet.
Here’s what I’m going to do: summarize the grocery, discount and drugstore ads from Sunday and Monday’s editions of The Monroe Evening News. That’s the stuff that gets the most attention anyway.
Here’s what I’m finding:
- Kroger has milk, chocolate milk and orange juice at $2.77 a gallon. Eggs, Kroger frozen veggies, Hunt’s snack pack pudding, Bounty Basic paper towels and Kroger bread are on the 10 for $10 list. Select Ball Park franks buy one get one free. Save $5 instantly when you buy $20 or more participating Nestle products, look for the shelf tags.

- Danny’s Fine Foods has milk at $2.99 a gallon. Take and Bake breads are two for $5. Red or green seedless grapes are 99 cents a pound. Tender cube steaks are $2.99 a pound.
Now, here is what you do with those milk deals. Buy what you need for this week. Then on Saturday or Sunday, whatever is the day before the sales fliers turn over at your favorite store, go buy next week’s supply of milk at this week’s prices.
And those temporarily lower cereal prices are not to be ignored. If you have space, I would stock up on your favorite brands.

A trip to Aldi’s, even if you’re not a regular Aldi’s shopper, is well worth your time when they have the $1.99 milk & $0.99 eggs (they do this combo of sale prices fairly regularly)… Eggs last for quite a while, so you can stock up on them (this is a great price, BTW, as a 2 dozen pkg of eggs at Meijer is around $3), and following Paula’s suggestion on milk alone will save our family around $7 (and that’s based on the sale price that Meijer offers)… gotta love sales on staple products! Stock up on some of the other regular good deals they have (canned veggies, chicken & beef broth, taco seasoning (if you don’t make your own), etc.), and you really capitalize on this extra stop!
