To help area shoppers get an idea where the best deals are, I’ve peeked at next week’s store fliers to see. The answer is . . . at the Stop & Shop supermarket in Milford.

Plus, check your flier for the strip of four $1 doubler coupons, which allow you to use four $1 manufacturers coupons and get $2 off each item if you spend $15.

Market Basket supermarkets also have some good deals starting July 5. Wild salmon fillets are $4.99 a pound, store brand deli roast beef is $3.99 a pound and gallons of 1% or skim milk are $1.99.

Plus, at the Milford Shaw’s, you can get Florida’s Natural half-gallons of orange or grapefruit juice for $1.99, and green peppers, yellow onions or white mushrooms in fixed amounts are 88 cents a pound. (At the Nashua Shaw’s, you’ll pay $2.47 for the juice and 99 cents a pound for the veggies.)

Starting July 5, Hannaford has chicken drumsticks or thighs in 4- to 5-pound packages for 79 cents a pound.

Area drug stores have some deals, too. Starting July 5, Walgreens has Jif peanut butter in 18-ounce jars for $2 (limit two). You’ll get $1 back in Register Rewards on a box or container of Tide or Gain, and Cascade dish detergent in the 60-ounce box or gel container is on sale for $3.99.

And Dawn dish liquid in 10.3-ounce bottles are two for $1 after $1 back in Extra Bucks.

Always try to use manufacturers coupons to save even more.
