Fireworks, Flavor & Frugal Feasts: Your 4th of July Party Starts at Cash Saver

There’s nothing quite like the Fourth of July in Memphis. Fireworks light up the night sky, grills fire up across the city, and porches buzz with family, friends, and good food.

At Memphis Cash Saver, we’re here to help you throw a party that’s long on flavor—and short on stress. Whether you’re cooking out in the backyard, heading to the river for fireworks, or throwing a block party with the whole neighborhood, we’ve got everything you need to make this 4th sparkle—without blowing your budget.

Watermelon: The Unofficial Star of the Holiday

It’s just not the Fourth without watermelon—and we’ve got bins of big, beautiful, seedless melons ready for slicing. Keep it classic with thick wedges, or get fancy with cubes, fruit skewers, or a festive red-white-and-blue salad with berries and mint.

Pick one with a big yellow spot on the side—that’s how you know it’s been sweetening up in the sun.

Wieners + Sausage = Grill Goals

Hot dogs and 4th of July go together like fireworks and oohs & ahhs. Stock up on Oscar Mayer Wieners—only $1.33 a pack! You can feed a crowd without the fuss. Toss them on the grill or keep it simple with a boiled dog and all the fixings.

Want to step it up? Grab King’s smoked sausage or Polska kielbasa for the grown-up grillers in the group. Slice ‘em, char ‘em, and serve them up with a little spicy mustard or BBQ sauce. Easy. Delicious. Crowd-pleasing.

Bush’s Baked Beans: “Roll That Beautiful Bean Footage”

No 4th of July spread is complete without Bush’s Baked Beans. We’ve got shelves full—Original, Brown Sugar, Country Style, BBQ—and at just $1.78 a can, you can load up for less. Heat them up on the stove or doctor them up in a slow cooker with onions and bacon for that homemade touch.

Pro tip: Pop them in a foil pan and slide them right onto the grill for a smoky sidekick to your sausages and dogs.

Milo’s Tea: Southern Sips to Keep You Cool

Memphis summers are no joke, and staying cool is key. Keep your cooler stocked with gallon jugs of Milo’s Famous Sweet Tea, Turkey Hill Lemonade, and iced tea blends for every taste bud. At just a few bucks a jug, it’s an easy way to keep the whole crew hydrated and happy.

Want to get creative? Try mixing tea and lemonade for a DIY Arnold Palmer, or toss in some fresh fruit for a pitcher of backyard punch.

Bomb Pops for the Win

Kids, adults, even the neighbor’s dog—everyone loves a Bomb Pop. These classic red, white, and blue popsicles scream summer, and at $2.26 for a box of 12, you can pass them around without thinking twice.

From watermelon and Nerds flavors to the OG rocket pop, we’ve got something for every sweet tooth—and plenty to keep your freezer stocked all July long.

Simple, Affordable, & Ready to Roll

At Memphis Cash Saver, we know that hosting a holiday get-together can be stressful—but it doesn’t have to be. Our shelves are stocked with real food at real good prices, so you can focus on the fun without breaking the bank.
