Not only grocery but they have coupons for almost all the things you might want to buy and what's more is that you can also earn cashback.

How long is lunch meat good after it is opened?

That's going to depend on how it has been handled, the type of packaging, the storage temperature and how far it is past the use-by. No one here can guarantee the safety of the meat. You'll have to make that decision.

If you know that you cannot use up the meat in the recommended time frame, try making some sandwiches and freezing them - or just freeze the lunch meat.

How many pounds of hush puppies are needed to feed 75 people?

This is really a difficult question to answer because it depends on the size of the hush puppy and how many you intend on giving each person. Typically, you should be able to get approximately 24 golf ball sized puppies from 1 lb. of corn meal mixture. A 5 lb. mixture should net approximately 120 hush puppies. This would give each person, depending on the size of the puppy, approximately 2 each. I think 7 lbs of mixture should net 3 each.

Where in Wisconsin can you buy par excellence garden harvest rice?

I have loved having Garden Harvest Rice on hand and now I cannot find it. I used to get it at Walmart, but they no longer stock it. I have looked at all of the major grocery stores locally and cannot find it. If anyone can tell me where I can buy some I would appreciate it very much. If I ever find it again, I will buy a good supply. I have used it in so many ways, in soups, stews, main dishes etc. Betty Sevison We also were disappointed when Wal-Mart quit carrying the product.

What is price per unit?

Unit pricing is the price per ounce usually. Sometimes they try to confuse you or make you work too hard, they hope, to save money by using the total price as in price per package. If the package was a pound they would put unit price of a pound and not 16 ounces.

You can see it on the small bar coded label under the item on the front of the shelf.

And if you look, you can see that sometimes also to get more money out of you, the family pack will cost more per ounce than the smaller pack.

You can determine which size of a brand is priced the best or which brand amongst the name brands is more reasonable. Or you can see the drastic difference between the store brand and name brands. It'll make you think twice about blind consumerism.

And sometimes the name brand on sale is better priced than the store brand or you can clip coupons.

What could a dollar buy in 1939?

I don't suppose 1939 was very much different than any other Depression year. It's just that I remember it best because I was 11 years old that year and was allowed to go to 69th Street all by myself to Christmas shop.

I had five gifts to buy for my family and a grand total of $1.00 to spend on them. I smile now when I think of getting all my Christmas shopping done for $1.00 but in those Depression days it was possible.

So around the 15th of December when the season was in full swing and all the decorations were in place and the Christmas carols were being sung on the radio, I would set out on my journey to Woolworth's Five and Ten Cent Store at 69 Sreet.

It was usually cold and blustery as I crossed the bridge over the Pennsylvania Railroad tracks at Yeadon Station and continued over Baltimore Avenue past Fernwood Cemetery, then along Long Lane for a mile or so before reaching my destination at the Woolworths on 69th Street.

I must say, it was one of the better Woolworths and always had what I needed to buy. You see, almost every year I bought the very same gifts for my family, and the dollar was allocated in direct proportion to the importance of the family member receiving the gift.

My Mother's gift was always purchased last because it was the most important and the amount spent on it was determined by how much I could skimp on my brothers and sister.

Dad usually asked me to buy him some Violet Water After Shave. It cost 25 cents but Dad was well worth that expense. Funny about him liking that Violet Water because, as I recall, the label said things like "Do not apply near flame or while smoking. Avoid getting in eyes. Positively use only as directed." But he loved splashing it on and smelling wonderful so I always bought it for him and damn the expense. Dad deserved it.

So there was 25 cents gone and 75 cents to go. I could get my sister, Jed, a nice hair ribbon for 10 cents, which left me with 65 cents. If I could find a toy or baseball card for Bob and Jack for about 15 cents each, that would leave me 35 cents for Mother.

Now that was the crux of the problem. If I had only 25 cents I would have to buy Mother a jar of Pond's Cold Cream but if I could get my brothers something cheap and have 35 cents, I could go all out and buy Mother the expensive LADY ESTHER Cold Cream, and that was all the difference in the world to me.

To be able to wrap up a jar of real LADY ESTHER in beautiful paper and a bow was the height of the Christmas experience for me. I didn't care if I had to give my brothers and sister less as long as I could present my Mother with her very favorite face cream.

So the trick was to find something for the boys that cost 15 cents. I would spend an hour or more in that store wandering around the aisles looking at books and toy airplanes and water pistols and finally, with any luck, I would find just the right thing for them for 10 cents each and that left me an extra dime and a huge treat. I could go to the lunch counter and order a hot chocolate for five cents and proudly say "YES" when asked by the waitress if I wanted whipped cream (five cents extra but it included a big red cherry on top) Oh! the decadence. But, sitting there sipping my chocolate, sure now that I would be able to get the best for my Mother, I was the happiest girl in the World.

So over to the cosmetic counter I would go. The rows of face creams would be tempting me but their siren call went unnoticed as I spotted the white jar with the beautiful green lid with LADY ESTHER written on it. That was the height of elegance to me. It even came in a little green and white box. Oh, the joy it gave me to buy that splendid gift.

On Christmas morning my Mother would always exclaim, "Oh, look everybody, Nancy has given me LADY ESTHER face cream. This is the best. Thank you very much."

Then, Christmas would be over for another year but the LADY ESTHER face cream always sat on her bureau all year and every month or so I would open the cap and try to judge how much was left and hope it was enough to last until the next Christmas when I could again give her the most wonderful gift in the world.

How much do most people spend on food and grocery items?

Americans spend over $478 Billion per year on groceries. The average American spends over $100 per week on grocery store items. - ZOMG -

...

US population = 311,597,917 (2011)

$478,000,000,000 / 311,597,917 people / 365 days * 7 days per week = $29.42 per person per week

$100 - $29.42 = $78.50 per week on grocery store items other than groceries?

How will shopping change in 30 years time?

Over the last 30 years the changes we have seen to our high streets and local shops have been as drastic as any in technology.

When my parents were young most of the shopping was done in traditional shops including the local Butchers, Bakers, Grocers and Newsagents.

As supermarkets appeared some of those traditional shops closed down and small corner shops selling many of the same things started to appear, often staying open much later than the supermarkets.

As the supermarkets stayed open for longer and longer hours even many of the small corner shops disappeared. As the supermarkets have grown larger and more have appeared other areas of shopping which have been affected include Clothing, Hardware, Car Spares and many other areas.

What are the top ten selling grocery store items in the US?

There was a survey conducted about 10-12 year ago that listed the Top 10 items sold in a grocery store. I have tried numerous times to find it in my files, but can't seem to lay my hands on it. However, I do remember some of the answers. #1 was pop. This was indelibly etched in my brain, because I teach nutrition. The first food item was bread at #8. Cigarettes and Tide detergent were also in the Top 5. Toilet paper and some other non-food items made the list, but bread was the only edible product in the first 10 items, believe it or not!!
