Update 11/01: I’ve changed the format of this a bit to make it easier for you to QUICKLY see the NEWEST Deals for the day (or Weekend Wrap-Ups.) I was struggling with how best to keep some of the previous deals around that were still good, without making it cumbersome to find that day’s New Deals. It seemed a shame to just delete some of the deals after a day that were still really good and long-term. But, I also want you to be able to quickly check on the newest ones, too! So, deals from the SAME day (or weekend wrap-up for 3-days) will be at the very top. Deals that you may want to reference later will follow.
In my Penny Pantry Facebook Group, I post many deals & info. throughout the day including freebies, deal updates & changes, Amazon Deals, meals & recipes, food discounts I run across + more! Some are more timely than others: the Amazon Warehouse Deals tend to come and go quickly, so Facebook is a good platform for me to let you know about those deals quickly.
Posts here on my website take longer to write and deliver, so I primarily use it for Weekly Grocery Deals, and other deals I think you may want to reference later. But, I’d like to bridge that gap as not everyone is on Facebook. Plus, it may be nice to have the Daily Deals together, as the Facebook feeds don’t run exclusively chronologically.
So, I’ll try this out and see how it goes! Please let me know if you think this will be useful as a companion to my Facebook posts. And, if you’re on Facebook and haven’t joined our group yet, I hope you will join and become part of our active, supportive vegan community! <3 Amy
Note on photos: Some may be illustrative of a product, but not the actual product. For example, I may use a general photo of apples I took to report on a sale on apples.
Happy Saving!

- Amazon: Now THIS is starting to feel like Black Friday at Amazon! Great deal on this Instant Pot Duo Evo Plus Pressure Cooker 9 in 1, 6 Qt, 48 One Touch Programs. ONE Day Only!
- Amazon: Member requested: This is the Kitchenaid Blender I have. I saved by getting a renewed one, and it was just like new. I have used it for several years without any issues. I use it a lot and it sits on my counter with the other Kitchen Appliances I use frequently. We make banana smoothies, and it does a great job chopping the frozen bananas and ice we add to thicken. One day I’ll have a VitaMix or BlendTec, but this is a budget-friendly one that I can personally recommend.
- Amazon: Cover Girl’s NEW Vegan Line of Products: I went searching for their vegan mascara I heard about, and learned more about their vegan line. It’s called “Clean Fresh”, and is made with vegan ingredients including coconut milk. Two years ago, they obtained the “leaping bunny” cruelty-free designation, and they have branched out with a vegan line. Has anyone tried these products yet?
- Amazon: I’ve also put these No Whey! Peppermint Bark Bars in stockings (and found some in mine!). Really yummy. Note that many of the vegan holiday chocolates are now running into December for delivery.
- Amazon: I got this Peppermint Hot Cocoa Mix last year for daughter’s stocking and she really liked it. Definitely cheaper to make your own, but we like to give pricier vegan food treats as gifts. I always feel good about supporting vegan companies, too!
- Amazon: More Peppermint! Has anyone tried this? I do love anything peppermint. Orgain Organic Plant Based Protein Powder, Peppermint Hot Chocolate.
- Amazon:

My Holiday Recipes:

Cooked a whole pumpkin in the Instant Pot for pumpkin pies, worked great! It took longer than the recommended time of 15 minutes, a total of 20 minutes. (I did 10 mts. initially, and added 10 more as it wasn’t done). I only started with 10 minutes the 1st time as my pumpkin was small, so 15 mts. at the outset may have been enough. I put a rack on the bottom of my IP, and added 1.5 cups of water. Natural pressure release 25 mts. Recipe for the pies above!



- Here is a post I did that goes into more detail on my Thanksgiving Menu, with links to recipes:

Holidays:
We are starting to see some of our yearly sales on baking items. The best price I’ve found for baking items is usually in bulk large 25 lb. bags. My local Warehouse store, Smart Foodservice is where I tend to get the best price per lb. However, this time of year, flour, sugar and more will be on sale in regular stores, too. Sometimes this will beat my Warehouse store prices.
I’m starting to add more to the “Holiday” Posts on my website. Take a peek!
