8-quart pressure cooker for $22 from JC Penney

Get this Philippe Richard 8-quart pressure cooker from JC Penney for $22, with free ship-to-store.

JC Penney is trying to cut down (or even out) most coupons and sales and just stick to low pricing, and in this case, they've succeeded.  This is a great deal on an 8-quart pressure cooker without having to enter a single promo-code.  I can honestly say that I've never seen a pressure cooker of this size at a lower price.  Make sure you use code JCPSHIP in order to get the free ship-to-store though.  Another advantage of getting this via ship-to-store is that if it's in stock, you'll be sure to get it in your hands before Pesach.  Order it here.

About the pressure cooker: Cook fast, healthy meals with this time-saving pressure cooker. Save money on groceries by increasing the flavor and tenderness of less expensive cuts of meat.

  • Tenderizes meats and poultry
  • Preserves nutrients in vegetables 
  • Super-fast cooking for home-cooked meals even on busiest days 
  • Energy-efficient aluminum body uses up to 70% less energy 
  • Stay-cool ergonomic handles automatically lock lid in place 
  • Triple-safety valves ensure safe operation

Act fast, because items are already selling out.

Good-glass-salad-bowl $16.76


We are starting to bring up our Pesach stuff from the basement.  I was carrying up the box that held my good-glass-salad-bowl when one of our dogs decided it would be a good time to play with me.  In fending her off, I dropped the good-glass-salad-bowl box.  No more good-glass-salad-bowl.  :(

So after not reprimanding my dog the way I should have, I went in search of another good-glass-salad-bowl.   We eat a giant salad at every meal on Pesach, and a good-glass-salad-bowl is an absolute must-have. I have some smaller glass mixing bowls that I picked up at Ikea, but I wanted something with a bit of design to it, and the Ikea bowls are very stark looking.  I also told myself that I was not spending a penny more than twenty bucks, even if I found the good-glass-salad-bowl to end all good-glass-salad-bowls.

I fell in love with this one.  It's Anchor Hocking, which means it's good quality and a good weight, it's got some bonus servers (which are plastic, which I'm not crazy about, but I don't really care about them...I'm focused on the bowl) as a perk, and best of all, it's got a slight tulip curve and a nice design detail on the rim and without being fussy.  I hate fussy bowls. And my new good-glass-bowl is $16.76 with free Prime or SuperSaver (minimum order $25) shipping.  Sold.

Last minute Pesach deal: 32 oz. Realemon juice for $2.84



I've been reading friends' Facebook posts on their hunts for last minute items for Pesach, and apparently there is a dearth of reasonably priced Realemon juice in some areas.  Amazon has got a great price on it, but this is a definitely a bulk deal, so you will want to get together with friends on this.

Get twelve 32 oz. bottle of Realemon for $34.08 with free shipping.  This works out to be $2.84 per bottle, which is a great deal.

(Want to hear another great Pesach money saver on KLP lemon juice?  Buy lemons and squeeze.) 

King Soopers: free eggs and near free Brawny paper towels

Denver readers, King Soopers has got two great bargains going on this week.

One dozen Krogers brand large eggs are just $1 (with no limits). Print this $0.55 off any 2 dozen eggs coupon here, on the Incredible Edible Egg Facebook page.  Since King Sooper doubles coupons up to a dollar, you will get $1 off 2 dozen eggs, which the equivalent of getting a dozen eggs for free.  Just in time for Pesach!

A single roll of Brawny paper towels is on sale for $1.09. Print the $1 on any Brawny paper towels on the Brawny Facebook page, and a roll of Brawny will cost you just $0.09.

Buying off-season: Chanukah stuff on clearance at Oriental Trading Company and YES, I know we're a week away from Passover

I haven't lost my mind.  I know we're in the middle of Nissan, and barely a week away from Pesach.  BUT, a great way to save money on things you will use is to buy them when no one else is interested in buying them.  Hence, Chanukah shopping in March.

Oriental Trading Company has got free shipping today and tomorrow (3/28/12-3/29/12) ONLY, and they have some fun Chanukah stuff on major clearance. Take a look.

I'm getting this 8-sheet set of Chanukah wrapping paper for $1.59.

And then there's this cute Chanukah stuffed bear for $3.99.

And lots of other finds. Make sure you scour their clearance section to snag some great chatchkas and toys.

And while you're there, pick up lots of frogs and sunglasses and wild beasts for your Seder table. Because, you know, next week is Pesach.....


SodaStream Jet Home Soda Maker for $67.99 with Kohl's card or $76.99 without Kohl's card PLUS $10 in Kohl's cash, today only

My husband's been hankering for a SodaStream  for a while now, so I've been watching for sales.  We're considering getting one for Pesach, since it's a great healthy and frugal alternative to pricey KLP soda. Kohl's has one on sale, and with promo codes and Kohl's cash, this is a real steal.  Here's how to score one for $67.99 shipped if you've got a Kohl's credit card and $76.99 shipped if you don't.

  4. Your total checkout total (excluding tax) is $67.99.   If you make the purchase today (3/28/12), you will also receive $10 in Kohl's Cash, good for a future purchase.  The Kohl's cash will come via promo code to your email inbox.

Pyrex baking items under $10

The Amazon kitchen sale is still on, and there are still some really nice finds to be had. I'm a big Pyrex fan (safer than aluminum, tougher than glass, non-porous, and goes in the dishwasher), and I noticed some excellent deals for under $10.  Actually, under $9.


This Pyrex 2 1/2 quart mixing bowl is $8.21 with free Prime or SuperSaver (minimum $25 order) shipping. I actually have four of these bowls and I use them constantly, not just for baking, but for salads and cooking in general.


This Pyrex 8" square baking pan is $7.99 with free Prime/SuperSaver shipping.  It has extra large handles so you don't drop the brownies (been there, done that. Who's nodding along with me?).



This Pyrex 1 1/2 quart loaf dish is $7.49 with free Prime/SuperSaver shipping.  "But Susie," you're saying.  "I have no immediate plans to bake any loaves."  Ah, but I use these all the time, because while I can fit only two 9" x 12" pans on my warming tray, I can fit four of these babies.  The small footprint of these pans makes it much easier to warm up a greater quantity of food simultaneously on Shabbat or Yom Tov.  (Parenthetically, I also do make a very scrumptious turkey loaf and layered gefilte fish loaf in these things.)



This Pyrex 1.3 quart oval baking dish is $7.49 with free Prime/SuperSaver shipping.  This is perfect for smaller recipes and because it's that purty oval shape, it can go right on your table (on a trivet).

WOW! Reflections "silverware" service for 40, $18.30 with free Prime shipping


When I came across this deal, I couldn't order it fast enough!

Get 160 pieces of Reflections plasticware for just $18.30, with free Amazon Prime or SuperSaver (minimum $25 purchase) shipping.  If you're not familiar with Reflections, they are the heavy duty, silver-colored plasticware that very much resemble actual silverware and are a big step up from regular plastic utensils.  I still had a stash from my last trip home to Brooklyn, where they can be had for a similar price, but I was worried that it wouldn't get me through all of Pesach.  When I saw this deal on Amazon, I bought two boxes (thinking about Sukkot...).  And quickly.

The 160 pieces include 80 forks, 40 spoons and 40 knives.  That's 40 settings, at (gulp) $0.46 per setting.   Major steal.

More Passover coupons

A few more Pesach related coupons:

Heavy-duty clear vinyl table covers, from $8.55


A few of you have written to me about finding good, heavy-duty, clear table covers to put over your Passover tablecloths.  Pesach is challenging in that we have two festive meals each day, usually with guests, but can't do laundry on Chol Hamoed.  Unless you own lots and lots of tablecloths, it's hard to start each meal with a clean, attractive table.  Oh, those grape juice stains and matzoh crumbs!

I hate using those disposable, flimsy, plastic tablecloths.  Besides being pricey and not very green, they always end up tearing or pulling, and frankly just don't look very nice.

We use a very heavy-duty clear vinyl to cover our Pesach tablecloths.  It wipes clean and doesn't look cheesy.  I actually had mine cut specifically to the dimensions of my dining room table at Joanne's.   I've suggested that to some of you and the response has been: no time!  too much trouble!

So if you're looking for a heavy-duty clear vinyl tablecloth cover, Amazon has got some great solutions available.  All of these ship free with Amazon Prime or SuperSaver ($25 minimum purchase), have finished edges and are a heavy .006 gauge or 7ml:
Please let me know if you need other sizes and I'll scout around.  And if you do decide to use a clear vinyl tablecloth protector, don't forget to have some fun with Pesach themed decorations-under-the-vinyl, like my friend Talia did back here.

Passover Tea Box, $16.13 with free Amazon Prime shipping, plus lots of $2 boxes of KLP tea

I've been having major Passover Tea Box Envy, but given how expensive pre-filled Passover tea boxes are, I thought they were out of our reach.  Then I hit on the idea of buying an empty box and filling it myself.

I just ordered one of these for us.  Get this designer tea box with a glass lid for just $16.13 with free Amazon Prime or SuperSaver (minimum purchase $25) shipping.  We like to offer tea and coffee to our guests after a meal, and until now, I've kept our many different flavor KLP teabags in a basket.    Efficient but not so elegant.  This is the lowest price I've seen on a finished wood tea box ever, especially with a glass lid.

Make sure you fill it up with KLP Bigelow Tea (my personal favorite; delicious and cheap).  The list of Kosher for Passover (Kof-K) Bigelow teas are here.
You can split these 6-packs with friends or stockpile them or use them during the year.  Voila, instant KLP tea box, for much, much less than what you pay for a pre-stocked one, and lots of extra tea to refill it.

New kosher for Passover food deals on Amazon: honey, ketchup, confectioner's sugar, salad dressing, potatoes

While most of the really good KLP food deals on Amazon are long gone, a few popped up over the weekend.  If you've got a little shopping left to do, there's still some time to snag these bargains.  Most of these come in larger quantities that you either will want to split up among friends or stockpile.

If you've got an Amazon Visa Rewards card and have not used your 20% discount on Amazon groceries yet,   now would be a great time, since this discount expires on 3/31/12.   Just pay for your order with your Amazon Rewards Visa and use promo code MAR20OFF at checkout.

Glicks 16 oz. honey, pack of 3, $15.74 or $5.25 each, with free Prime or SuperSaver (minimum $25 order) shipping.  Use your 20% Amazon Visa discount and that price drops to $12.59 or $4.20 each).  A little pricey for a lb. of honey but still better than the Lieber's KLP version.

Gefen 28 oz. ketchup, pack of 6, $23.94 or $3.99 each, with free Prime or SuperSaver (minimum $25 order) shipping. Use your 20% Amazon Visa discount and that price drops to $19.15 or $3.19 each).   We aren't buying KLP ketchup this year, but if it's a must-have in your family, this price isn't bad.

Savion Zesty Garlic 8 oz. dressing, pack of 6, $16.14 or $2.69 each (no picture available), with free Prime or SuperSaver (minimum $25 order) shipping. Use your 20% Amazon Visa discount and that price drops to $12.91 or $2.15 each).   As KLP salad dressings go (most are truly awful), Savion is actually pretty good-tasting.

Gefen Confectioners Sugar 16 oz., pack of 6, $17.90 or $2.98 each (no picture available), with free Prime or SuperSaver (minimum $25 order) shipping. Use your 20% Amazon Visa discount and that price drops to $14.32 or $2.39 each).

Liebers Whole White Potatoes,15-oz., pack of 8, $13.52 or $1.69 per can  (no picture available), with free Prime or SuperSaver (minimum $25 order) shipping. Use your 20% Amazon Visa discount and that price drops to $10.82 or $1.35 each).  I use these for when I get to that point when I absolutely cannot peel yet another potato.  Open a can, toss it in with a chicken recipe and voila, instant side dish.

SECOND UPDATE:  the price on this warming tray has just dropped to $24.71.

Hot water urns $38-$40

We used to have one of those plastic hot water "pumps" for Pesach. Then we had to replace it.  Then we had to replace it again.  Then we had to replace it again.  You get the idea.  I'm pretty much done with the crummy-quality hot water pumps.

We got our trusty Plain Old Urn for Pesach about four years ago and never looked back.  We don't really need to worry about those nasty hard water deposits because it's used for only one week a year, so the inside still looks brand new.

Amazon has got some very good deals on hot water urns.  The first one is a little better than the second in price-per-capacity, but I'm going to share both of them because the first one is currently out of stock.  They are restocking it and you can still order it, but if'you're very nervous about the urn arriving before Pesach, order the second one.  It's about the same price but a smaller capacity.


Get this Hamilton Beach 42-cup urn for $37.99 with free shipping.  It got 4 out of 5 stars over 42 customer reviews, and $38 is a great price.  (Target's got it for $45 plus shipping.)  They are currently out of stock, but you can still order it and they will fulfill it as soon as they get more in.

But, if you're nervous about the timing, here's a slightly smaller version for about the same price:


Amazon has got this Westbend 30-cup urn for $39.89 with free shipping.  It got 4 1/2  out of 5 stars over 110 customer reviews.  Even with the smaller capacity, $40 is a really good price.  (Buy.com has it for $45.73.)  This is actually the urn that we have for Pesach.  I purposely wanted a smaller capacity because we have a small kitchen, the water heats faster, and you can refill an urn on YomTov (not Shabbos though!) as long as there is enough water to start with so that the light doesn't change color, so I wasn't really concerned about needing more hot water for my guests.  I also really like the Westbend name.

International Simplicity flatware set (service for 8+bonus) for $20.27


If you're looking for a very basic flatware set in service for 8, I don't think you'll do much better with the price than on this International Simplicity set for $20.27 with free Prime or SuperSaver (minimum purchase $25) shipping.  While I wouldn't buy 18/0 silverware for daily use, I'm perfectly comfortable buying it for Pesach since 1) it will be used for exactly one week per year and 2) since we don't have a Pesach dishwasher, the washing wear-and-tear will be minimal (although they are dishwasher safe anyway).

Besides the five-piece-per-setting service for 8, the set also includes a bonus of 8 steak knives and a hostess set including a sugar spoon, butter knife, pierced spoon, tablespoon, and a cold meat fork.  All this for $20.27?  Quite a steal.
