A few weeks ago the boys and I made a trip to our local Cash n Carry Store. Cash n Carry is a restaurant/food service supply store that is open to the public. I love it because it's like a mini Costco, without the added distractions and budget busters of clothes, samples, and holiday decor. The focus of this trip was to start our food storage journey and to get some food in our house that was delicious and nutritious. I was looking for some great deals and I was not disappointed, although in calculating my totals I did realize that I could have saved more on some of the items. Our flat bed cart was loaded with 50lb bags of rice and whole wheat flour as well as 25 lb bags of AP flour and beans (black and pinto). For good measure, we top off the cart with smaller bags of popcorn and white beans. The total of our 187 pounds of food was a bit less than $128 which equates to about $.68 per pound of food.
