DLM Best Buys through 11/14




Here are the highlights of Dorothy Lane Market’s specials running through Tuesday, November 15th.

Remember to sign up for the “Club DLM” card (ask for an application in the store) to receive offers by email based on your purchases.   You’ll get occasional rewards ($3 off Deli meat, for example) that, I suspect, are based on your spending patterns.  I don’t shop at DLM that frequently, or spend much when I do, so it’s possible that you’ll get “better offers” than I do.   I’ve received a nice page full of coupons in the past, but I have not for a while.

Every time you swipe your Club DLM card, you are entered for their monthly drawings, too.  Three prizes per month are given away at each location.  

Also, DLM does double coupons of .50¢ or less up to $1.  (Coupons over $1 are face value.)

On a “foodie side note”, DLM’s “Joke of the Day” tickled me on my way out:

“Why was the celery arrested?” (See the answer at the end of the post…)


PRODUCE

Organic Peeled Mini Carrots 1 lb. $1.69
Organic Green Onions .59¢ per bunch 
** This is less than the “conventional” green onions at DLM, which are .69¢!
Org. Romaine $1.99/ lb.
Org. Gala Apples $1.69/lb.

MEAT DEPT.

DLM Local Grass-Fed Hormone & Antibiotic Free Ground Beef $6.99 16-oz roll
(I realize this is expensive; I'll post about the "high cost of Meat" at a later date.)

Fresh Whole Turkeysfree-range, vegetarian fed w/ no antibiotics or growth stimulants $2.99/lb
                You can reserve your Turkey HERE

DAIRY

Immaculate Baking Co. Organic Ready to Bake Cookies $3.59 
(Located near Dairy; they may also have pie crust & other products. Earth fare does.)
FINAL COST: $3.09 ea. if you buy 2

KerryGold Butter 8 oz. $2.79
This is such an exceptional product - from Ireland, made from the milk of grass-fed cows – and well worth this price.  I was excited to find it on sale at Earth Fare this month for $3.19, but then found it currently even less at DLM!  I usually buy unsalted butter for baking, etc., but I bought the salted KerryGold to eat straight on warm bread, and I just have to tell you “This is what butter is supposed to taste like!”
Organic Valley Sour Cream 16 oz. $2.99
FINAL COST: $1.99
Organic Valley Cream Cheese/ Neufchatel 8 oz. $2.69
Organic Valley ½ & ½, flavored & original $2.69
FINAL COST: $1.69
** DLM carries a nice variety of Organic Valley’s dairy items. None of these I've listed were advertised specials, just regular prices.  I’ve been buying their grated parmesan and keeping it frozen. It works great and doesn’t go bad if we don’t it that quickly.
Note: Coupons from the company’s site are valid for 30 days from the date on which they are printed. Coupons are limited to two prints per coupon offer. 

Stonyfield Organic Yogurt 6 oz. .60¢
FINAL COST: .27¢ ea. (.80¢ total) when you buy 3
Note: Coupons are redeemable for 10 days after download. Coupons are limited per household/customer/computer to one coupon print per offer each month.

Miceli’s Ricotta Cheese 15 oz. $2
(Not Org., but local - near Cleveland)
UPDATE: I used the low-fat version of this brand for a veggie lasagna this week and decided it was the best ricotta I’ve ever used!  Great value for this high-quality item!

ON THE SHELVES

Annie Chun’s Rice Express $1.99
                USE $1/ 1 COUPON HERE
(Sign up for newsletter, then confirm if it doesn’t take you straight to the print screen.)
                USE .50¢/1 HERE (Will double to $1)
                FINAL COST: .99¢

And, now, as promised… 

“The celery was arrested for STALKING!”  

Have a great week!
