    Default Good Price for Pumpkin/Cranberry Sauce

    Trying to decide how low prices will go...

    What is your stock up price for canned pumpkin & cranberry sauce?


    Thanks!

    My stockup price is 3 for $1 but have a feeling only in my dreams these days. This season the lowest I've seen canned pumpkin is .99 and cranberry sauce, store brand .50

    Interesting prices. Walgreens has cranberry sauce for 99 cents this week. Pumpkin is around $1.49 on sale. My DH just said that a bag of stuffing at Safeway tonight was $6!!

    Our pumpkin - small cans - seems to FINALLY be down to .99 and I will have to go for it as I have too many things to make that call for it. Will buy some at this price in case it doesn't go lower.......but keep hoping.

    The lg. cans, I think, were right around 1.50 or higher. I don't like to buy those as then I have some left over that usually goes to waste.

    Don't do the cranberry thing so don't know.

    I paid .68 a can for store brand pumpkin week before last. I stocked up with 12 cans because I use it all year.

    The lowest price I've seen on the cranberry sauce on sale was .78 for an off brand. Have to buy some this week so I'm hoping to find it cheaper at Walmart.

    Good idea stocking up on the pumpkin - it seems there will be a shortage this year - http://www.latimes.com/business/la-f...,5196858.story

    I was told by an Aldi's employee that they will not be getting any pumpkin in this year due to a shortage of pumpkins. I usually buy a case from them and couldn't figure out what was taking so long. Now I have to look elsewhere.

    We don't have alot of stores to choose from around my neck of the woods.

    We have Ocean Spray cranberry for .99 this week. Or .79 at the other store with the coupon in their mailer.

    Generic pumpkin was .99, and brand name was about .20 higher, was not paying a lot of attention as I do not make pie from it.
