Bought a half gallon of honey today - 17 bucks. Last one was 13 and time before that, 10 bucks (about 4 years ago.) Compared to what I saw tupelo honey going for tho, the 17 dollar price was still a steal, altho not tupelo, of course.

A gallon of house brand milk at Kroger is $2.99. Last week it was $2.59 and I was surprised to see it that low.

I have not noticed any lowering of milk prices. I mentioned before I
buy milk at Family Dollar (PET brand) because it costs a heck of a lot
less than even the Publix branded milk. Family Dollar is much closer to
home, too.

Milk is about 20% cheaper here than it was a year ago. There has been no
recent drop. I think it is more of a local marketing thing and applies
mainly to the 4 liter bags.

It's a Canadian thing. I first saw it at The Food Terminal in Toronto,
in the 1970s. But it was only three heat-sealed liter bags in a plastic
bag, if I recall correctly.

Dave, do you folks keep an old glass milk bottle to pour the bags into?

I pay $3.89 for a G of whole milk.

We used to, but broke enough of them that we resorted to the more common
plastic jug that the bags fit into

Is that for house brand or a regional advertised brand? The regional advertised moo juice here is about a dollar or two more than store brands.

When I was at Publix two weeks ago the store brand was almost $2 more
for a gallon of milk than I can find the regional (PET) brand at the
dollar store.

I get Borden milk.
