I was in need of some whole cloves and curry powder. I went to Food Lion this morning, expecting to pay an arm and a leg for some spices. I just so happened to walk down the authentic foods aisle, and saw a rack of Mexican spices. And lo and behold, there were some whole cloves and curry powder!
$0.59 Badia whole cloves 0.25oz vs. $5.25 McCormick whole cloves 0.62oz
$1.49 Badia curry powder 2ozs vs. $3.63 McCormick curry powder 1.0oz
For just a moment, I thought someone was playing a joke on me. I don't know if I've ever found spices that cheap. I could have bought 8 packets of the Badia whole cloves (for a total of 2ozs) and still wouldn't have paid as much for 0.62oz of the McCormick brand.
That, sweet sisters, is a Bargain Buy!

You already saw my deals. Your sounds great! Spices always cost so much. Do you have a Penzey's Spices near you? They have a huge selection and are not very expensive. Sign up for their newsletter and there are sometimes free coupons on the front. I just got a free Italian Seasoning.
ReplyDeleteAs far as I know, we don't have a Penzey's Spices. I've never heard of that store, but you've piqued my interest!
