Five more early bird Passover finds

I've gotten some great money-saving feedback from those of you shopping the early-bird Pesach deals on Amazon. Here are five more that I came across today.  These all come with either free Amazon Prime or SuperSaver shipping.  The items that are Subscribe & Save have free shipping without Prime.  If you don't have a Prime membership, get together with some friends and order enough to meet the SuperSaver $25 minimum.  Most of these items involve purchasing more than you will use, so you will probably want to get together with friends anyway.

Remember, you can save some real money with Amazon Subscribe & Save (15% off and automatic free shipping) and then as soon as your item ships, you can go into your Amazon settings and UnSubscribe.  It's extremely easy and I've done it numerous times.

Ok, here are the five frugal early-bird Pesach finds:


While I would never pay $1.79 for a regular can of tuna, anything under $2 for a KLP can of tuna is a huge bargain.  Hurry, this tuna will definitely sell out quickly.



I usually pick up about four of these non-gebrucks cakes and throw them in my freezer.  They are similar to pound cake. They're great to have on hand when I'm serving guests who don't eat gebrucks or are on gluten-free diets.   But why do I really love them?  

When I reach that oh-so-magical exhaustion point in the holiday where I cannot, will not, shall not bake yet another dessert, but still have guests coming, I take one of these out, slice it into big slabs, top each slice with a scoop of KLP non-dairy topping, and drizzle with chocolate syrup and sliced strawberries, and voila, shmancy Pesach dessert.  

If you've got a nut allergy, you can also get the marble version of this cake at the same price:  

The chocolate-chip version is ever so slightly more expensive:
Osem Passover Chocolate Chip Cake, 8.8 oz., pack of 9, $24.92 or $2.77 each.




Forget about the traditional Wissotszky Passover tea that cost upwards of $3 per box!  Did you know that Bigelow makes quite a few varieties of KLP teas, under the Kof-K hechsher?  And these teas are delicious; I drink their Plantation Mint flavor year round.  Their Constant Comment Tea and their English Teatime Tea, both KLP (according to their website) and both less than $2 for a 20-count box right now.  Order these with friends and then mix and match for some real Pesach tea bargains.


4.  Gefen Passover Black Pepper, 3 oz., pack of 8, $7.85 or $0.98 each.

KLP spices generally go for about $2 each, so this is a half-price bargain.  You are definitely going to want to split this with friends (though I would stockpile one for next year), since there's no way you'll be going through 8 jars of pepper over 8 days.  (If you do, you're putting too much spice in your food....)


5.  Liebers Creamy Chocolate Supreme Passover Frosting, 9 oz., pack of 4, $4.69 or $1.17 each.

A real time-saver when you're making multiple desserts for different meals and at $1.17 each, treat yourself to a shortcut.  I've also spread this frosting on matzoh and topped with nuts and frozen it for a quick-and-dirty dessert when I know my guests are bringing a bunch of kids.

Anyone score any other Passover early-bird bargains out there?
