Guest guest Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 So my package of reduced price (28 cents) non organic mushrooms (98 cents a pound) was not so good of a deal? wink, wink M.A. Meg <itszen4me wrote: as much as I loathe walmart for questionable corporate practices and I ESPECIALLY hate how they will try to swing eminent domain (I dont feel so bad for the employees, they have the choice to work there and we've all had jobs with sucky or no benefits, but I digress)...and I know that selling organics is all about the money (back in Orlando our walmart already did sell organics so it's not news to me, but I digress again)...BUT hopefully it can be turned into one kind thing done for the earth in exchange for all the crappy things....but we shall see. In orlando I had most of my organics delivered, there was a great co-op there that brought whatever I ordered to my door every 2 weeks. Here I go to super target since the prices are right. I go to harry's when I feel like driving and have extra moola...but with kid #5 to debut soon extra moola isn't always something I have. We don't have a choice, we have to do organics because my son has a liver condition and most likely the new baby will have it as well. So, I decide it I want to pay 99cents/lb for those organic bananas or 1.19/lb and if it's walmart with the best price that week, so be it. Bananas are a luxury for us actually and I have to know what farm they are from, LOL. And in case you are wondering, no, it isn't any fun at all grocery shopping with me. I have to read every single label, I moan and complain about the condition of the mushrooms (hubby managed at a commerical mushroom farm once...I know way too much about mushrooms), I cry over mushy tomatoes...anyhow...
