interesting. did they have entrees and stuff too or just the bulk essentials? might even be worth a trip there if cheaper than online.

They also were selling the entrees in #10 cans and had vegetarian meat substitute, bread mixes, pancake mixes, brownie mixes, muffin mica, fruits, veggies, and had some Gluten free items

sorry for all the questions, its just a bit far for me to drive without knowing details. do you remember ball park what the entrees cost? i am trying to mix macro ingredients and entrees but looking for the best deals.

I have no clue I bought 2 cans of cheese the other day $15 a can and some biscuit mix $7 a can . I'll let you know when I stop back in a coupledays.

by the way you can order online from walmart and get free shipping. i had like 40 lbs of stuff in my cart and it was still free shipping.

i bought a bunch of their entrees and a few other things. shipped for free and delivered in three days. entrees are quite good. i have mad alfredo chicken and chili mac so far. pretty impressed.

No wonder my Augason Farms orders are taking weeks to ship. Stocking Walmart comes first I guess.

Hollohas Walmarts prices are way cheaper than buying direct from Augason Farms

[hollohas]

I have been buying direct from them for a long time but didn't know any Walmart carried their stuff until now. I typically only buy on sale stuff. I don't mind buying from Walmart at all and may start to do just that. I am sure the Walmart prices are better because they can absorb the shipping costs easier. Augason Farms has flat rate shipping but $11.99 doesn't even come close to covering the costs of shipping 100lbs of goods so they increase the sell price of each item.

Costco carries some of their larger supplies at very good prices too. However I don't always like what comes in the large "kits"

Anyone familar with thier 6 month 1 person supply kit? Trying to decide between those and the 30 day buckets...
