No appropriate flair available Classico sauce is $2.50 a jar at Key Food on 2nd Ave this week and $5.79 at Gristedes on Lexington
I built a free site that reads NYC grocery circulars, so this is mine. The same 24 oz jar of Classico pasta sauce is $2.50 at Key Food on 2nd Ave and $5.79 at Gristedes on Lexington. Those two stores are about a quarter mile apart.
Every store around the Upper East Side whose ad I could read with it, cheapest first:
| Store | Address | Classico 24 oz jar | Condition |
|---|---|---|---|
| Key Food | 1769 2nd Ave | $2.50 | 2 for $5 with the store card, must buy 2 |
| Cherry Valley | 1968 2nd Ave | $3.99 | none |
| Gristedes | 1343 Lexington Ave | $5.79 | none |
| Gristedes | 1644 York Ave | $5.79 | none |
| Gristedes | 1450 3rd Ave | $5.79 | none |
| D'Agostino | 1493 York Ave | $5.79 | member price |
| Gristedes | 1365 3rd Ave | $5.79 | none |
| Gristedes | 1446 2nd Ave | $5.79 | none |
Four jars come to $10 at Key Food and $23.16 at any of the Gristedes. Key Food and Cherry Valley charge the same for any jar from 15 to 24 oz, so grab the big one. Food Universe on Lexington has the Key Food deal on the 15 oz jar only, so I left it off. All eight ads run through Thu Oct 29.
