i shop at a local target for my tp and papertowels and cleaning supplies and some of the frozen items i like & milk & along with diet soda i keep in the apt in the place to drink ..

but there is a big price mark up on some of the items box items like mash potatoes mix a or bags of Splenda the fake sugar i use in all my drinks or food that needs to be sweeten ..

i can get a super sized bag of Splenda online that will last me up to about two months of use compared to the small bag that the other sale in the city ..

also alot more items i found when i have compared there prices to the same name brand chain food stores outside the city

i have started to compare prices with the local places where i shop and i finding if i go through places like Amazon and buy the case website i'm saveing about 60 bucks or more a month on my food bill doing it the way i'm useing the local places for small things i need for the apt and going online for the bulk items ..

i have been shopping at the local places for meats and fresh fuits and eggs & bread i like at the local farmer markets there in the city when i need them on sat morning ..

So has anyone else been compareing prices from places like amazon when to the local market and how much more money you save buying through amazon or buy the case .websites..

i sometimes buy 'wet ones' from buythecase. i haven't used them in a long time.

'wet ones' are antibacterial wipes - they're for your hands, but i use them to clean the stove, the microwave, the kitchen floor and the toilet seat and jiggle as well as faucets and cabinet pulls.
