Rice Prices

I have seen mention on several blogs that I frequent the price people are paying for rice in their locale. Last week (Friday) I priced 30 lbs at a store I patronize called The Grocery Outlet. It was in the form of a bale of 1 lb bags, $0.69 each, or a total of $20.70. In the past they have had it in 10 and 20 lb bags, but not this time.

This store specializes in closeout items and market trials that didn't make it so you never know what you will get. There are a lot of items that are there each week, but you must be prepared to pounce on the really good stuff when it comes in. Makes it worth a weekly trip just for the good deals.
