here in socal the price of sugar has been close to $2.99/5lbs. a
local hispanic market had it on sale for $2.49/5lb brand; i bought 4
five lb bags. i've been baking a lot, from scratch, so my need for
the stuff has gone up. two of the bags are going to my friend who
makes jam as a hobby & gives it away.
