Happy Independence Day Weekend!

If you check the supermarket circulars, you'll notice that many traditional BBQ ingredients are on sale right now for the holiday weekend. Watermelon, hot dogs, hamburgers, buns, corn, BBQ sauces...

This is the perfect time to buy and stock up if you can for the week. Buns and meat freeze nicely so you can always have an impromptu BBQ and know that you saved money having bought all the ingredients on sale. When purchasing groceries, always remember to look for the expiration date (or in some cases, the manufacturing date). Purchase the one that will have the the longest shelf life for instance, I just bought a half gallon carton of Florida's Natural for $2.50 and chose the one with the exp date of September 2011 over August. Same for the Bacon Bits I just bought on sale that expires in 2013.
