Amazon & Whole Foods: 2 big changes that are going to save you a lot of money on natural foods

With Amazon's purchase of Whole Foods, big, big changes are coming to the supermarket chain, known for their organic and natural food choices and for their notoriously high prices.

On Day One following the official acquisition, Amazon lowered Whole Foods prices on this selection of food by as much as 43%. (Don't forget that you can also save money at Whole Foods by printing and clipping these coupons, and you can and should also use their smartphone app here.)

Further good news: Amazon is now featuring single items from Whole Foods signature 365 Everyday Value line on Prime Pantry (which is available only to Amazon Prime members) for pretty low prices, starting at 59 cents. This is an awesome way to save money on signature Whole Foods items and have them delivered straight to your door.

(If you need to find out if something from this line is kosher, you can run it through the OU product lookup here. The OU provides kosher certification for most of the 365 Everyday Value line.)

More Prime Pantry deals are available here.

I'm watching this Amazon/Whole Foods merger very closely and I'll bring you the news on more of the ensuing savings and discounts as they unfold.

Kikkoman Soy Sauce (half gallon) for $4.99 on Amazon. (Cheaper than Costco!)

I usually get my soy sauce from Costco for about $7.00 to $8.00 for a half gallon (64 oz) but this Amazon deal is better than that by about 35%! Amazon has got this 64 oz. Kikkoman Soy Sauce for only $4.99. Because of the low pricing, your limit on this is 4 per account.

This is an Amazon Add-On item, which means that it ships for free with a $25 minimum order (and its price of $4.99 counts towards that $25). You can buy multiples of this item in order to get to the $25.00 free shipping minimum (Other Amazon Add-On item deals can be found here.)

12-count of Hunt's Fire Roasted Diced Garlic Tomatoes for $6 on Amazon (50 cents per can!!!)

This 12-count of Hunt's Fire Roasted Diced Garlic Tomatoes, 14.5 oz. cans is $6.00 on Amazon, or 50 cents per can. Because of the low pricing, there is a limit of four per account. (Under OK hashgacha.)

This is an Amazon Add-On item, which means that it ships for free with a $25 minimum order, and its price of $6.00 counts towards that $25. You can buy multiples of this item to help get you to your $25 minimum for free shipping. (Other Amazon Add-On item deals can be found here.)

Colorblock Midi Dress for $29.30 on Amazon

Amazon has got this MIEGOFCE Women's A-line Striped Colorblock Midi Dress for $29.30 with free Prime shipping and free returns on Prime-eligible items. Most reviews were raves (4.2 out of 5 stars over 6 customer reviews); make sure you buy one size up from your regular size.

EARLY BIRD SUKKOT DEAL: Set of four folding chairs for $39.00 ($9.75 per chair!)

Walmart has got this set of four black or antique linen Mainstays steel folding chairs for $39.00 with free shipping or in-store pickup. That comes to $9.75 per chair (cheaper than some chair rentals!). These chairs got 4.7 out of 5 stars over 84 customer review.

Traditional armless steel folding chair
Rubber-capped feet help protect floors
2 cross-brace construction
Set of 4 steel chair folds for storage
Contoured seat and back
Low maintenance powder-coated finish

EARLY BIRD SUCCOS DEAL: Table To Go 'I Can't Believe It's Plastic' 50-count plate set for $18.80 on Amazon

Amazon has got this Table To Go 'I Can't Believe It's Plastic' 50-count Ivory and Silver Lace Design Plate Set for $18.80 with free Prime shipping.

25 - 10" dinner plates
25 - 7.5" salad plates

I know these plates got two poor customer reviews on Amazon, but I've ordered them in the past and they were (in my opinion) the same quality plates that one could buy in Amazing Savings. One thing to note: when the plates arrived, they were clearly white and silver, NOT ivory and silver as described.

AMAZON PRIME PANTRY DEAL: 2-count 50 oz. Tide for $7.98

Remember all the terrific Prime Pantry deals I posted yesterday over here?

Add this one: Two 50 oz. Tide Detergent for $9.99 - $2.00 coupon = $7.99. That's 8 cents per ounce, well under my stock up price.

This is a Prime Pantry deal, so it's for Prime members only.

Prime Pantry changes its prices monthly and we are very near to the end of August, so don't wait too long on this one.

Lord & Taylor: Design Lab Floral Statement Necklace for $14.43

Lord & Taylor has got this Design Lab Floral Statement Necklace on sale for $16.98 (was $34.00) but enter promo code FASHION and that price drops by 15% to $14.43. I love the fall colors in this necklace. 16" lobster clasp chain with 3" extender.

Free 2-day Shoprunner shipping and free Shoprunner returns. (FYI, if you have any American Express card, get Shoprunner for free here.)

Amazon Prime members: FREE Amazon Elements Vitamins/Supplements when you spend $25 on Amazon (including Star-K kosher options!)

Attention Amazon Prime members, spend $25 on any items on Amazon that are sold by Amazon, and enter promo code PRIMEVITAMIN at checkout and you'll your choice of one of the five Amazon Element vitamins and supplements listed here.

This offer is stackable with the free snack offer here, so you can buy $25 worth of stuff once, enter both promo codes (PRIMESNACK and PRIMEVITAMIN) and get the free snack AND the free vitamins. Make sure to add your choice of free snack and free vitamins to the cart, and the price of those items should drop off after you enter the promo codes.

Amazon gift cards are excluded from qualifying for the $25 worth of purchases, but other gift cards don't seem to be. I got this promotion with a $25 Whole Foods gift card.

Attention kosher-keeping Daily Cheapskate readers: apparently, according to this, ALL of these vitamins are under Star-K hashgacha! However (there's always a catch), they are only considered kosher if the actual Star-K symbol appears on the product package, so you will be taking a risk by getting one of them. From what I can see in the image pictures, the Amazon Elements Magnesium actually shows a Star-K in its product pictures, so that's probably the safest one to order.

Eliza J clearance maxi skirts marked down by 80% at Lord & Taylor, small sizes (4-8) only

One of my favorite secret (really-not-so-secret) sources for stunning, well-priced, modest, maxi skirts is the Lord & Taylor skirt clearance section. If you're shopping for some YomTov knockout styles, here are some of my best finds for today in Eliza J skirts, which is one of my favorite Lord & Taylor brands. These skirts are marked down by a whopping 80%!!! Sadly (for me), these skirts are only available in sizes 4-8. FYI, promo codes do not apply to clearance skirts at L&T.
