Bulk Food Buying
Print This Post
In my community there is a fruit market that sells to the public and to local restaurants. I found that if I buy an entire bushel, or large bag, etc. I can buy produce for close to half the cost per pound as when I buy the produce by the pound. For instance, three-pound bags of onions cost $1.49, or about 50 cents a pound. When I bought the 48 pound bag, I paid $15, or 31 cents a pound. I had to ask if they would sell in large quantities for a discount - they didn’t advertise their bulk pricing. If the produce isn’t the type to store well, then consider freezing or canning it.

Come join me and over 200 other frugal-minded women in this new and exciting community. Share tips and recipes, learn new frugal skills and have fun with others just like you.
Come take a look and see what it's all about for just $1 for the first 7 days.

Or, consider spliting the bag with a friend/neighbour/relative!
