Land O'Lakes Butter Sale - Kroger
LOL Butter is on sale for $2/lb at Kroger in the Dallas area, so if you're in the south, check the circulars this week :) There's no limit this year! Typically around cookie season, I've noticed they do this for a week or two so keep an eye out if you're not in our area.
Fred Meyer, which is own by Kroger and is all over the Pacific Northwest, has been having crazy sales on all of their baking ingredients. When I went in this weekend bulk spices were 25% off, vanilla extract was 50% off, and sugars and flours were all marked down. So now is a very good time to stock up on thise baking supplies that keep well so you can use them through the remainder of the winter.
$2 is expensive for a sale, then again I never buy the name brand butter. Our local grocery store just had their butter on sale for $1.29 a pound. It's the only butter I use and the quality is just fine. Can't tell a difference.
We did just get an Ollie's near by which is a bargain outlet type store, the kind that buys other stores liquidations and such. I got McCormick pure vanilla, the large glass bottle for $2.99! It's $7 normally. I also got a small bottle of McCormick almond extract for $1.99 and they aren't expired... which I assumed they would be.
i live in phoenix, az. there is a possibility that fry's/kroger & safeway stores will go on strike at 6 pm friday 11/13/09. it is a union/company issue on basically health care for new employees.
if you want the lol butter & live in az, you might want to purchase it b4 6pm fri 11/13/09.

I am in South Florida and was looking a few weeks ago, for some Lemon Extract and Orange Extract....the Publix down the street had a 1 OUNCE bottle of Orange Extract for $4......I found a 16 OUNCE bottle of it online for $10!! Amazing what you can find online!!! They also have all kinds of other spices and extracts for amazing low prices!! I would list the name of the site here but for the life of me, I can't find it in my emails. I will try to post it as soon as I find it. Just do a google search for whatever ingredient you are looking for and you will get a plethera of sites!!
Happy Baking!!
