I know I’ve mentioned buying organic food at Costco in the past, but after an experience I had over the weekend, I just have to mention it again.
We’ve been having a cold snap here in Florida (I know you Northerners are going to laugh when I tell you it’s been getting down to 48 degrees!) and even though I usually make chicken stock from scratch, I decided to purchase some. Pacific Natural Foods Organic Free-Range Chicken Broth, is $4.46 for a one quart carton at my local Albertson’s supermarket. At my local independently owned natural food store it is $3.69. And at Costco I bought a box of 6-1 quart boxes for 9.95–that’s $1.66 a carton!
I bought 3 boxes of six cartons for $29.98. That’s 18 cartons. It would have cost me $66.42 at the natural food store and $80.28 at the supermarket! I saved $50.30! That, to me, is a HUGE difference!
Readers, I’d like to know your tips on how you save money buying organic food.
