Chicken BrothThis is the week at the grocery store  €“ the week that all good Thanksgiving chefs (or semi-homemade chefs) live for. It’s the best week of the year for canned good and holiday prep sales. If you haven’t started to stock up on what you will need for your Thanksgiving meals and snacks, this is an excellent week to take a trip to the grocery and get started. At the same time, think ahead to Christmas and New Years.

Once you’ve purchased for yourself, please take a moment to remember those less fortunate. Thanksgiving and Christmas are prime times for food pantries and shelters to gather canned goods and boxed foods/meals to help those less fortunate. Coupled with the sales that are happening this week, you can make an otherwise generous donation go even further.

 €¦ remember,  there’s no cents in paying full price! There are loads of coupons – printed and digital – that you can pair for an even better price. Check coupons.com, as well as the Cellfire and Favado app for additional savings!
