YES at under 50c/lb that's a very good price! Is this on sale...or is it an "always price?"

Finally you guys pay more for something. Around here it's $19 for a 50lb bag so .38 cents/lb.

Sam's is a good place to shop . Investing in all grain fermenting is a cheaper long term way to shop .
Both ways are good .
Just food for thought .

Anytime I can get it for under 0.50 cents a pound I feel like it's a great deal. You guys getting it for under 0.40 are getting a great price.

With the all out war on the amount of sugar being force fed to the unknowing general public through processed foods we may see sugar prices drop dramatically. The word is out on the adverse health affects that processed sugar is having on common folk. Again the greedy pigs are exposed on their uncaring pursuit of making money even when it harms others.

We're always between 11 and 13 $$ locally, but I only have to drive 7 miles each way to get it so I save on time and gas money.

I think that the panela sugar that we were buying from Sugar daddy was about $1 a pound and worth every penny. Makes a great rum.
