Take advantage of BBQ bargain

’D LIKE to encourage everyone to start think-
ing about the barbecue season, but one look at
the long-range weather forecast tells me to

forget it for this week.

We did, however, haul out
the barbecue and op-
tumistically set it up. If yours
is beginning to look lke a
1960 wedding present, Barbe-
ques Galore (1589 Garden
Ave., N. Van.) ts advertising
Sunbeam gas models _ for

$199, including the bonus
pack of extras like a
rousserte, vinyl cover, tools

and whatnot.

If you decide on a new
model, buy a can of Pam
spray and never let the kids
fire-up withoul spraying the
grills top and bottom If you
can convince them to remove
the grill and wrap it in wet
newspapers when they're
done, even the crustiest goop
slides mght off with a splash
of soapy water

Both Safeway and Buy-
Low are. featuring blade
chuck beet roasts this week at
99€ a pound There's a lot
you can do with this cut,
especially if you've got a
good sharp knite

The cut has two bones
the large. smooth blade bone
and the smaller, skeletal
bone The meat between the
bones is tonder enough to use
for Stroganott or stir-fry
Braise the rest with a packet
of omon soup mix Don't
bother browning the meat
the soup does it all

looking jeans tor $16.99 at
Workwear World at 1Sth and
Lonsdale. Of course, she was
using her own money. The
last pair she conned me out
of (purchased in a fancy
shop) set me back $40. Live
and learn

Other teen recommends
Mark’s Work Wearhouse at
820 West 1!Sth. She says
‘*everyone’’ is going for the
checkered California canvas
runners, cheaper here than
anywhere at $16.99.

Dining out can be damned
expensive, especially when a
cocktail costs $4 and wine 1s
$20 a bottle. If vou finish
with a ‘‘house’’ coffee at $5
you've practically gargled
away your life savings

We had dinner last night at
Las Tapas on Esplanade. The
enure bill, including all of
the above and lots of food
was just $43 for four people

To start, cocktails are 99¢,
the largest jug of Sangria —
I'd guess at about 40 07 15
$9 99 while house cottee is
$2.99. You order the food in

small ‘‘tapas’’ portions — as
you feel like it SO Vou
never have costly leftovers

and everyone hay just) as
much variety and quantity ds
he fancies

I don't Know how long the
special prices will dast but
we'll be taking advantage
while they do
