Back from Mexico and I need to shop

 As soon as I got back, I applied for a new credit card for groceries. Now I need to go out and use it to replenish my refrigerator and freezer. I wonder what is on sale. I need kosher salt. Now that I am going to be around, I can attempt live herbs again.

Bravo: Krasdale frozen vegetables are $1.25 for 14 oz. I got some broccoli cuts last night. Colavita pasta is 3/$5. I'm not sure what shapes they have or what I need. A 24 oz container of kosher salt is $2.29 but I want a 3 lb box. Camaronazo is $3.29. That's like Clamato but based on shrimp instead of clams.

Brooklyn Harvest Market: Clamato is $3.50 here.

C-Town: Romaine is $1/lb. Frozen vegetables are 5/$4 for 8 oz bags. Mixed vegetable bags (like California Blend) are 3/$5 for 14 oz.

Food Bazaar: Nothing

Green Corner: Cilantro for $0.59! Limes 8/$2! Nopales $1/lb! I can try my hand at Mexican things.

Quite a price difference on these chicken feet:




Ozzie's: I'm afraid to go here because I hate their announcements, which I think should be an OSHA violation. But they have cans of coconut milk for $1.50. Tomatillos are $1.49/lb.

I want to buy groceries but I shouldn't (Mexico)

I am going to Mexico soon and I don't want things to go bad, so I shouldn't go buy things even though I want to. I bought 5 kirby cucumbers ($1), 2 zucchini ($1), and a bag of grapes ($1) yesterday. I'm also trying to eat healthier. But then at night, friends brought over beer and potato chips so shopping healthier doesn't even work.

In Mexico, I probably won't buy groceries. Last time I went to a store and bought a bottle of Clamato because I love that stuff. I didn't like the lid on the bottle though. It was hard to screw back on.
