Autumn & Apples

My favorite time of the year has come around...Autumn. Along with it comes delicious apples which is another favorite of mine. The price of apples in the grocery stores have been very high and I asked a produce manager awhile ago why there were so high. He responded that apples were out of season. OK, now that autumn is here and apples are back in season, I caught a great deal on Gala apples for $.99 cents/lb. while checking out the weekly ad at Publix. This is the lowest price on apples I've seen lately so my fruit bowl is now filled with fresh apples.

As I have mentioned before, it's a good idea to check the weekly store fliers for specials which can be done online before you head out to shop. Don't be afraid to ask the produce or store manager to match the price of an item. They would rather have you purchase the item from their store since you are already shopping there. It also saves you time and gas from driving around to catch deals.
