When we moved from Pa. to Southern Ariz.
it was a case of grocery sticker-shock.

( and we thought that being closer to Cal, Mex.
would mean lower food prices )

Part of the prob is 2 main grocery stores in town
that must "price-fix".

We make a monthly run to a WalMart to stock up
on dry goods.

Buy local meats, fruits and veggies only on sale.
