Graham Cracker Crumbs and More

 Here were my findings this week at the Berkeley 99 cent store:

  • Keebler graham cracker crumbs box- 1 month until expiration
    • These boxes go for about $5 at some supermarkets!
  • Portobello mushrooms
  • Pasta- seaweed pasta, whole wheat pasta, lasagna noodles, penne, jumbo shells, birds' nest pasta
  • A1 sauce
  • Wasabi paste (Polar brand, made in China)
  • A banana.  Yes, only one was left.  Must be due to those shortages caused by supply chain and shipping delays.
  • Fresh Express kale spring mix 
  • Black and kalamata olives
  • Diced canned tomatoes, 28 oz.
  • Orange extract
  • Parsley flakes, thyme, Italian seasoning, oregano, crushed pepper flakes, Himalayan pink salt, sea salt, black peppercorns, cinnamon, cumin
  • Frank's red hot sauce
  • Gnocchi (Pampa brand, made in Italy)
  • Heinz apple cider vinegar
  • Red wine, balsamic, and pomegranate vinegar
They have an increasing amount of food above $0.99.  The price is not always clearly marked, so beware!  It may still be a deal compared to regular supermarkets.  For example:
  • Green giant bite-sized potatoes, 1 lb. bag for $2.49
  • Champignon mushrooms ~4 oz. for $2.49.  They look like shiitake
  • King Arthur's brand flour- for ~$3 a bag
