Cherries $1.11/lb BUT there's a catch

[Patty Smyth]

The catch is, you need body armor and nerves of steel because as you see the lineup is insane but worse, the store is only about double the size of a large SDM

So Bonanza has a special every Sunday and this week it was cherries $19.99 for 18lb case. I got DH to come with me in case there was a fight(only ended up yelling at one stupid turd who tried to cut in line) and we got 3 cases. Bonus 18 lb cases of green grapes were $9.99

So to pit or not to pit , that is the question.

Going to freeze most of the grapes and cherries, still debating on whether to pit the cherries or not. Anyone have any thoughts on this? I am not going to use them for smoothies it will be mostly for eating so I figured to not pit.

This was the lineup at 9a.m. and it was just as long behind me

Got most of the grapes freezing on trays and the fridge is full of cherries

Wowsers, you lucky woman, you!

Can't wait for cherries to be a decent price here, because the best thing ever is to make is cherry perogies!

Enjoy your bounty!

Every year they have the cherries as their loss leader and people wait for it as you can see by the lineup.

Is it a wholesaler, discount store, regular grocery store?

Thought no one could beat Sami's for prices for you!

[ssbean]

Wow! That is a crazy line but what a great deal you scored. Enjoy!

I thought we were doing good at FreshCo's $1.99 a pound but Patty you take my breath away with the sheer bulk you purchase and the energy to painstakingly freeze them all.

I bow down in admiration woman!!


It is surely raining cherries where you are!!

It is a small italian grocery store, heavy on the fruits and veggies, pastas, specialties and deli counter. There is only one in Montreal and thankfully it's near me
