With the ‘big game’ fast approaching, Save A Lot is ready to help you serve surefire favorites while you cheer on your favorite team! In celebration of the game and our favorite topic – food! – we dug deep to uncover the most popular big game snacks purchased by our customers over the past three years. Drumroll please . . . the winners are frozen pizzas, potato chips and chicken wings!
While the top snack list also includes game-time favorites such as brownies and tortilla chips, frozen pizzas rose to the top of pre-game carts in 2019, 2020 and 2021. Frozen pizza sales alone accounted for almost two-thirds of all snack sales in the two weeks leading up to the big game. Top pizza options – which made up the bulk of ALL pizzas purchased at Save A Lot – were Market Selections supersized take-and-bake pizzas (Supreme, Pepperoni, and Sausage and Pepperoni). Rounding out that list of preferred pizzas was Mantia’s Rising Crust Pepperoni, Mantia’s Rising Crust Supreme and Totino’s Party Pizza Combo.
The other food category giving frozen pizzas a run for their money—and growing in purchasing popularity? Chicken wings. Save A Lot shoppers bought close to 10 times more chicken wings in 2021 as they did in 2019.
When it comes to chip selection, Save A Lot shoppers prefer classic options with just a hint of flavor: J. Higgs BBQ, J. Higgs Classic and J. Higgs Classic Ripples, along with Lays Regular Potato Chips dominated the category in pre-game sales all three years.
There is always going to be a ‘great debate’ as to what you should bring to the big game potluck and what goes best with a touchdown victory, but Save A Lot has definitive proof that the ultimate snack is the frozen pizza! This month, come in to your local Save A Lot and pick up a couple of your favorites for the game – win or lose, they’re all guaranteed crowd pleasers.
Move over flowers, chocolate, and jewelry. This year, what your Valentine really wants is breakfast in bed. We’ve compiled some of our favorite must-have items for every skill level. Whether you are a top chef in training or a master of the microwave, we’ve got you covered.
Plan It Out
Taking some time to think through what you’d like to serve is essential to making any meal a success. Asking questions of your partner, like whether they’d prefer something sweet or savory, is always a great place to start to ensure you’re on point with that first meal of the day. Asking ahead of time will also give you time to look up recipes and stock up.
Surprise Them
If you’re a bit more adventurous, consider surprising your Valentine with that morning meal. Going this route requires you to have all their breakfast favorites on hand. A quick run to Save A Lot will help you stock your pantry ahead of time with important basics including McDaniel’s Coffee, Farmington Bacon, Tipton Grove orange juice, or Grissom’s cinnamon rolls. Don’t forget the spice aisle: Marcum seasonings can add flavor to any meal you’re prepping. Need a quick and easy breakfast fix? Try our Morning Delight Breakfast Bowls or sandwiches.
Taking It Up A Notch
Whether it’s frozen or made from a mix, your Valentine will never know when you up your game by adding in some Marcum spices or Ginger Evans Chocolate Chips. Consider adding a pinch of paprika to a Morning Delight Breakfast Bowl or stir in some Ginger Evans Chocolate Chips to your pancake mix to create a one-of-a-kind meal made especially for your love.
If cooking isn’t your thing but you can microwave a frozen waffle with the best of them, consider upping your flavors by adding fresh produce and whipped cream on top. Save A Lot carries a variety of your favorite fruit toppings including fresh blueberries and bananas. Have some fun by heading into your local store to see what’s in season and go from there.
Sizzling Sides
Pamper your loved one by giving them a few delicious sides to accompany the main part of the meal. This could be frying up some Farmington Bacon, throwing some Farmington Maple Sausage in the microwave or heating them up a warm bowl of Quaker Oatmeal. Giving them a few options to enjoy will ensure they get a little bit of everything.
Keep Your Eye on the Prize
Remember, Valentine’s Day is all about having fun and showing the one you love how much you care. You know your partner best so feel free to experiment with their favorite flavors or play it safe with our heat-and-serve options. Either way, your loved one will appreciate the time and energy you put into making Valentine’s Day 2022 the most relaxing one yet.
