I used to get dishes and cookware when stores had a "buy so much, get this piece this week, these other ones next week." Sometimes they still do, but I might find the designs to be a bit of an eyesore.
For quite a while though, my daughter has been buying "meal deal" or "free with this other item you're getting anyway." Like getting refried beans or tortilla chips free, because you're paying for all the other stuff for tacos or burritos anyway. Often store brand only, or all the items will be, and you can maybe get two sets of everything and toss some in the freezer.
Sometimes we try something new that way, like the tamales or sushi made fresh in the store.
