Didn't have a chance to check it out until today...I couldn't believe it! It's worth the drive IMO even in the midst of rush hour (I work near Kent and I didn't have the kids with me so I took advantage of it after work). The cheapest store on the Eastside is Fred Meyer and I copperdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00101229314360148740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7177530866163973083.post-36286374554570249972009-07-07T20:26:16.194-07:002009-07-07T20:26:16.194-07:00Ask.

What do you do for them? Do you have any tricks for saving on paper goods? Is there a cheap source of toilet paper?

I guess that is the price I pay for living off the beaten path- most things are a little more expensive and there is less competition among stores, as well as no big wholesalers. I am in awe of you, as usual!Halfmoon Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12050121358001735700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7177530866163973083.post-8968333894082870612009-07-06T21:20:53.323-07:002009-07-06T21:20:53.323-07:00$3.88 for 5 dozen eggs???

I spend around $10 for 5 dozen eggs and that is from a big, cheap warehouse store!! I can't even get 2 dozen eggs for that price - it costs about $2.30 if you buy a dozen at a time!<br /><br />Boy am I envious of American deals!!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18079708732762929798noreply@blogger.com
