I am starting to buy more and more from Bulk Barn these days. Steel cut
oatmeal is less than a quarter the price of the name brands. I picked up
some Wheatlets (Cream of Wheat) and paid only 88 cents for a close to 2
pounds of it. Various herbs and spices were 25-40 cents for small bags
which held the equivalent of 2 jars of the commercial stuff that sell
for $2-4 each
The best thing about buying bulk is that they don't screw around with
package downsizing. There is none of that reducing a container from 12
oz to 10 oz and charging the same price.
