Bargain Meal of the Week 2/26/10

It's time for another week of Bargain Meals! Erin over at $5 Dinners (a great read!) is hosting a gathering of bloggers all over the Internet, creating frugal meals straight from the sales circulars of their favorite stores. Check it out for even more inspiration. I contribute every week for the current sales at Publix, which run from Wednesday to the following Tuesday. Keep in mind that you do not need to purchase two of a product to get the buy one get one price. Publix marks down their products to half price for the BOGO deals.

3. Open crescent roll packages and separate triangles. Place crescent rolls with the point in and the ends overlapping in a circle using a pizza pan. Set the tuna mixture in a ring on the crescent where the ends are overlapping. Then take the little point end and lift it up over mixture and tuck underneath the ring for each crescent roll. It forms a wreath.
