This is good info, Lady_V - thanks!

Of course I'm a little ahead of myself....cabbage will be cheapest next month and I just sent hubby to the store for some right before I read this post. Oh well, thought it'd be really good with the leftover ham we're having tonight so I'm willing to pay a little more...this time.

Mahalo for some great info - think I'll start tracking prices to see what the differences are here throughout the year!!

Thanks for sharing this

Do you mind sharing your source? Is it region specific?

Thanks.

Was wondering if it was region specific but it doesn't state I know where I shop now, bananas and celery are definitely NOT a bargain.

I don't think everything is on 'sale' that month... I've noticed the prices going up & up... I think these are the 'best of' what's out there though
