It’s hard to believe it’s almost time for Labor Day already! Growing up, we always did two things: watched the Jerry Lewis Telethon and feasted. The telethon is a sad shell of its former glory, but good food still abounds. I’m hoping for a low-key holiday, with nice weather that’s not too hot or humid!

As usual, I will be planning my menu around the store sales. The best ones seem to be at Hannaford. I’m not sure about Shaw’s, since their Labor Day ad isn’t out yet. (Their ads start on Friday for the upcoming week, while every other store in my area starts on Sunday.)

Here are the best Hannaford sale items:

* Ground beef, $2.29/Lb  (That’s the cheapest I’ve seen it in ages!)

* Corn, 5/$1.00. (Other than Memorial Day, this is the cheapest price and will probably be the last fresh corn for the season.)

* Whole watermelon, $3.99. (Have I mentioned how addicted I am to watermelon? Yum!)

* Boneless, skinless chicken, $1.99/Lb. (Good sale price, but not extraordinary.)

* Coke product 12-packs, $2.00. (Same price as Memorial Day and I will be stocking up on Diet Coke, big time!)

My Labor Day Menu:

*  Hamburgers

*  Green salad

*  Corn on the cob

*  Slices of watermelon

*  Buffalo chicken strips

*  Potato salad (No special sales, we just want it!)

All of these tasty treats will be paired with tons of soda and for dessert, some awesome Klondike bars (very big sale, which I will feature in Super Savings Saturday).

What do you eat on Labor Day?
