In our newsletter, we usually take a lot of space telling about the foods
we have in goodly supply at good prices. Well, sometimes we also have some
products that we really like that aren't plentiful in quantity, but we'd
like to tell you about them anyway. 
These are some of the items that, if we bought them in the big grocery
stores we'd consider these to be "splurge", or "luxury" items. At Second
Chance prices, these are an affordable way to add a little dash of spice to
the array of groceries in the pantry. Quantities of some of these are
limited.

Mezzetta Imported Greek Peperoncini, 16 oz. jar, $1.65 ($3.29 Big Store
Price) These are those vinegar-y little light green peppers, just barely
hot, that Papa John's puts with their pizzas, and you can sometimes find on
good salad bars. These make a great snack with some cheddar cheese and
snack crackers.

Inglehoffer Tartar Sauce, 3.75 oz jar, 50¢ ($1.19 BSP) When we were kids,
tartar sauce was a luxury item that we got only when we ate out at the fish
restaurant. Inglehoffer makes some of the finest condiments we've ever
had, and they're always in those cute little glass globe jars.

Filippo Berio Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 17 oz. bottle, $2.00 ($4.09 BSP) 
Olive oil comes in several grades, with "light" being the least expensive
and least flavorful, and "extra virgin" being the most expensive and most
flavorful. This is also Italian cold pressed olive oil. which is also a
notch or two above the rest. (Most inexpensive olive oil is probably
Turkish in origin.) This is the prized olive oil you want to used in
salad dressings. It also contains NO CHOLESTEROL. That's right, none. We
don't have a lot of these in stock, but they're a great treat at half
price.

Soy Milk. We've got a half dozen brands/types of soy milk in stock. 
Regular, light, chocolate, etc. These come in handy quart boxes that dont
have to be refrigerated until after theyre opened, and sell for only 75¢ a
quart. If you need to dodge dairy, but still crave milk on your cereal or
a glass with your Oreos, this is this answer. And, it's less expensive
than regular milk or the BSP on soy milk.

My Big Fat Greek Seasoning Spice Island makes some high quality
seasonings, and "Greek Seasoning" is one of their blends. Made from onion,
garlic, mint, salt, and other seasonings, this is a great addition to
cabbage (another great money saver) and other dishes that can use a dash of
the middle east from time to time. The usual BSP is $4.25, our little
bitty price is way less than half of that.

Hold The Salt "Seasoned NoSalt" salt alternative is a great buy for
those who need to dodge sodium. At a measly 50¢, it might not be a bad
idea for the rest of us, as well.

Dill Seed This is usually about four bucks (BSP), but Second Chance has
it for only $1.00. We've learned that a sprinkle of dill seed and a
drizzle of olive oil is a great additive to green beans, much healthier
than the traditional Southern flavoring of fatback or salt pork.

A new shipment is due Wednesday, so we'll try to get a report out on it in the next few days. Thank you for subscribing.
