LOL:
Safeway - US$5.49 / 1 lb box
Lucky's - US$5.29 / 1 lb box
PW's - US$5.19 / 1 lb box
Gene's - US$4.99 / 1 lb box
Cosentino's - US$5.19 / lb box

Challenge:
Safeway - US$3.50 / 1 lb box
Lucky's - US$4.15 / 1 lb box
PW's - US$6.45 / 1 lb box

Tillamook:
Safeway - US$4.49 / 1 lb box
Lucky's - US$3.99 / 1 lb box
PW's - US$5.39 / 1 lb box

Generic:
Safeway - Lucerne US$3.29 / 1 lb box
Lucky's - US$3.54 / 1 lb box
PW's - US$3.89 / 1 lb box
Gene's - US$4.29 / 1 lb box
Cosentino's - US$4.99 / 1 lb box
TJ's - US$2.89 / 1 lb box

I don't understand the _massive_ price differences. LOL isn't
worth the difference and Lucerne always seems to have a
plasticized taste to it. I have hit Lucky's three times since
they swapped back names from Albertson's and decided that I can
spend more wisely in other businesses.
