Middle Tennessee grocers appear to be waging a war for deal supremacy as the busiest shopping time of the year approaches.

But, fret not consumer. We've got you covered on the best deals around thanks to our Grocery Deals series, a new weekly roundup from The Tennessean.

We looked at weekly circulars from more than a dozen stores, including Middle Tennessee staples like Aldi, Dollar General, BJ's Wholesale Club. Food Lion, Kroger, Walmart, Sprouts, Whole Foods, Publix, Costco, Sam's Club, Save A Lot and Piggly Wiggly.
