I usually have on hand 2 1/2 lb bags for $12.99 and 5 lb bags for $19.99. I cannot get the larger boxes that were cheaper any more this year. This is the only sizes we can get now.

I am starting a Email Newsletter soon, so if you want the most up to date information sent to your email, please sign up for the newsletter. This is the most reliable way of making sure the information is delivered to you every week. But now I am trying to learn how to design and start it. It is alot more complicated than I thought it would be. I am sorry but I am having problems getting this going, Technology does not like me.
