    Here is a neat tip for people!
    I just went to the Asian grocery and was able to buy a lot of the stuff I use for seasoning foods, super cheap! I also got some dried foods cheap (shitake mushrooms, bamboo shoots, and kelp knots) bought different kinds of veggie starch. Also they have tons and tons of bulk rice of every imaginable kind!! Should check it out!! I got 6 huge bags ful for under a hundred and that included a lg morter and pestle!!

    Good morning @Alaska Prepper! 🇺🇸🎆❤🎈🎉🐾 Whenever u do these price checks, it is like foreign currency pricing:
    1. Some items are more favorable or not in your region of the country
    2. Costco is far cheaper in bulk than anywhere else but our nearest one is 56 miles away and we do no go there.
    In FLORIDA for instance, we cannot touch organic products at the prices of the West coast because glyphosate and gmos are everywhere here! However, factory farm eggs ("regular" eggs)are only $1.29/dozen (we do NOT support this type of agriculture with our dollars). You rice and beans are so much cheaper as is the organic pasta, and other Costco items in bulk. Ge erally, our meat is way more expensive even though Florida raises more cattle by far, than any other state! Now, meat has been cheap because we have begun keeping it here as "they" shut down the 13 factory slaughterhouses in the US, you know, due to the "beer bug." I always find it interesting to be updated.

    Pomegranates are my entire families favorite food as well. Right after Thanksgiving they sometimes go on sale for $1 apiece. I buy 30 then! 😂 They last weeks in the fridge. Now that we won’t see them in stores much longer my husband asked me to stock up on them. I bought 4 trays from Costco (14.99 apiece here in the Midwest). Costco’s are by far the best quality I’ve seen even if they are more expensive. This is our indulgence. Love them! 😋

      I'm also Wisconsin and was super bummed at the amazing pinto bean sale at his Costco. Our WI Sam's Club stores have dried beans seasonally (have them right now, pinto and black beans) but definitely not as good a deal. I think I paid $8 for a 12# bag of black beans (can't remember for sure, it was a month ago).

I just shop at a local Grocery Outlet every month or two that is a 5 min. drive away, in and out for fresh things as I have a lot of food preps already. Hopefully things will be better by next fall. Family and friends drop off huge bags of potatoes, onions, apples and oranges, etc. so I'm set! I continuously dehydrate spuds and apples. Still busy and can't wait to get my small gardens started outside for veggies and medicinal plants! God bless our great community, always.👵🙏💖💐...yeah, Kerrygold's is the bomb!😋

    When you were looking at the foil, I saw you had a big endcap of my beloved Kirkland Parchment paper!!!! We haven't had it at my Costco in TN in over a YEAR!!!! Their parchment paper was thicker than anyone elses I think. I'm buying an off brand now. It's thin and the roll is only 50 sq ft. I also see that you don't have the Kirkland brand roast beef in a can anymore. We haven't had that in probably 3 years here. The last time I got some was on their website. I bought it by the case when they had it and that was the last time I've been able to get it at a reasonable price. They have people on Amazon and ebay that sell it for double or triple what it should be. It was really good stuff. Keystone is okay. But, that Kirkland brand was the best canned meat I've ever eaten. Our prices here have gone up drastically on EVERYTHING just about.

    Prices are a little higher than here in Illinois, but not bad. You actually have many more organic and unique products than here. I assume it's because you are essentially on the West Coast, and that's where most of the organic products come from, and it's actually easier and cheaper to ship products from California and Washington to Alaska by sea, than over land to Illinois!
