This week, we're including some price comparisons between different stores to illustrate how much you really can save by checking prices on our website BEFORE you shop. All the prices came from www.GroceryBagSavings.com (just select single items in the dropdown box after you select your region). If you like this "Values" pricing format, drop me a line at henryd@grocerybagsavings.com
