Prices on Red Wheat???

[TanksHill]

I was just wondering what everyone was paying for hard red wheat in their part of the world. Yesterday someone mentioned they had to travel to purchase it.

Anyways, I ordered myself a #50 lb bag today. My local health foods store was 59 cents per lb and 10% off if you buy the 50lb bag. So I am paying about 26 bucks. What do you think? I also got rolled oats at 59 cents per pound.

Just Wondering

Check with the nearest LDS Church congregation and see if they have any orders going in for wheat. I think you will be able to get wheat for quite a bit less than that.

That's extremely good! My mom pays $.99 a lb. at her local health food store.

I will be paying $50-60 with shipping all the way to MA. Whole foods has it for $.99 to $1.29 per lb, I think, but it is a hike for me, so I'm gonna go with the 50# bag shipped to me.

Wow, I wonder how much it would cost to ship from here. I'll send you a couple.

I figured out the price of the bucket... I got a food grade from Home Depot. I think 6.50
Then I use the Gamma seal lids, on sale 6.99
And I also purchased the mylar bags for less chance of bugs. That puts me at about 40 bucks stored and sealed. I think If I had found free buckets it would have a great deal. But no luck there.

be prepared has the pail with 45 lbs of wheat with a standard lid for 46.95. And that's before shipping. So I guess I am still on the good side.

I think next time I will buy each item as it goes on sale. Obviousally a better price. I really just needed to get my wheat now.

Would ya? I think shipping will bring the cost right up there. Shipping is crazy!

Just tried to order from their site and couldn't get shipping costs without putting in my payment info, which I am not gonna do until I know what price I will be paying! They have lots of great stuff, and great prices. I sent a couple e-mails to their contact links.

Has anyone from the East coast ordered from them?

All you need to do is request a free catalog. You don't need to put in payment info to get that. They ship them pretty quick too.
