3 Easy ways to get Organics... without breaking the bank.
1. Shop sales. You'd be surprised by the things you can find by looking through the ads Sometimes at Kroger they well have their Organic apples on sale for $1 a pound, which is cheaper that their non organic counterparts.
Just the other day I found an ecoupon good at kroger for buy one get one free Organic Sweet Leaf Iced Tea. (I got 2 for $1)
2. Check the organic section at your local supermarket, if they have one, each time you go. It never fails, I always find something on sale that I could use instead of the non organic version. Last trip I found Organic Chocolate Chips for the same price as the non organic ones.
Now, these chocolate chips are only 10 ounces, but hey, I didn't need the extra chips anyways.
3. Sometimes when a produce doesn't sell as much as another one, I'm guessing, (this happends with organics because most people don't know why we should eat organics whenever possible) it gets reduced. I love when this happends. I purchased two boxes or Organic cereal and two boxes of Organic breakfast bars at Kroger the other for $1 per box! YAY!
Now, I could have done without these breakfast bars, but hey they were a dollar. I know I get tired of cereal every day so the kids must too. Something easy to change it up (even though I wouldn't eat them, I don't do breakfast bars).
So, I know that people turn there nose up to Organics, but we shouldn't. In fact, what we call organic, our Grandparents called food.
Some other simple things to switch to buying Organic:
Organic Pinto beans, Just 99 cents at Kroger.
I think I payed $1.25 for these Mixed Veggies at Target. Simple choice I'd say.
I bought this canned corn at H.E.B. It cost $1.25 which Is a big increase from other corn but hey my grandparents eat corn a lot so it was yet another simple choice. I want them around for many years to come.
Ok, so the jelly... It is more expensive but have you read the labels on Jelly lately? Plus I don't like pesticides in or on my fruit, so why would I want it on my fruit spread. I paid $2.99 for this. Let me tell you, they flavor of this jelly is far more superior to the others. Plus they carry Blackberry Fruit spread, I love Blackberries!
I HAD to share this one... I have bought 3 bags of this lately and have been paying $5 for it, and I saw it for $6 at targer, but yesterday I saw it at H.E.B. on sale, randomly, for only $4!!! I almost bought another bag, but I have plenty, for now. (I mainly use this in my buttermilk pancakes, but it can go in a lot of things.)
Ok ok, last one for today, these are some Organic Juices I bought the other day at Kroger, they were on sale: Four for $5. I couldn't believe it because the regular price of some of them was $2.99 YAY for Organics!
So, that's my speal for today. Get to know your supermarkets and their Organic sections.
Later on tonight maybe I'll post my Research paper about Organic and GMO free food, IF I can find it...
Lesson learned: I am very passionate about Organics... I used to think washing fruit was stupid. Now, I wash my fruit and I try to purchase organic when I have the means to.
Gotta love it!
God amazes me with the YUMMY food he provides!!!
