Costco's Deal of the Month (September)

This month at Costco...

The organic, grass-fed beef "box" which they began selling a few months ago is now on sale for $40 off! It's normally $179.99 but THIS MONTH ONLY for $139.99 you get an assortment of quality, trimmed cuts! (4) 16 oz Rib-eyes (4) 14 oz NY Strips (4) 10 oz Top Sirloins and (4) 8 oz Tenderloins. At 12 lb total that comes out to $11.66/lb which is more than a steal, it's a freaking crime! 

The meat is not as local as it could be (it's from an organic farm in Oregon which uses sustainable farming practices) but that's incomparably better than the conventional raised beef you find in all other stores. It's also heaps better than both the organic ground beef Costco currently sells under it's own brand name, Kirkland Signature, and the Trader Joe's organic grass-fed beef which is sourced from THREE different countries!

So what I'm trying to say is, JUMP on this deal. Go in with a friend or two! Or, stock your freezer if you have a large family. Offer expires 9/19/13.

This month, Costco also started featuring a separate coupon book for their organic items. There are some REALLY good deals here! Especially for people on-the-go and for those of you with children! Now, I realize almost none of these are "Paleo" but I don't care. Like I've said a million times, I'm not a nutrition elitist. I want to help people make BETTER choices, and these are some great ones! Check 'em out: 

Not made from the milk of grass-fed cows but a HUGE step up from conventional string cheese! Pack these in your kids lunch box if they are casein and lactose tolerant! Great source of fat and protein.

The organic kefir would be another great item for a kids lunch or after school snack!

Frozen juice tubes for dessert on a hot day and steel cut oatmeal for a quick breakfast option!

The sliced chicken breast would be an EASY protein add-on to salads for lunch at work and both kids and adults would enjoy the apple chips as a sweet, crunchy snack. I like them in my homemade trail mix! 

I totally took advantage of the killer deal on that tomato sauce. I prefer to make my own, but it's good to have some on hand when I don't want to! Haha. And at that price, how could I not?

Never will you ever find a better price for organic, virgin coconut oil! Holy ____!
