They have a bulk storage section. I think I got it on special, but the 45 lb. bucket is usually $20. The cheapest big bag of WW flour (when I bought) was 13.90 for 25 lbs. That makes the wheat .44/lb and the flour .56/lb.teekaroohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17600855230034505108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5075656855458954651.post-26234980365536729322011-01-19T03:47:49.182-07:002011-01-19T03:47:49.182-07:00Where do you get your wheat?

Nothing like warm bread out of the oven. I think I must bake some today. :)Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06116903234641971344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5075656855458954651.post-48743082240677169032011-01-18T22:10:51.575-07:002011-01-18T22:10:51.575-07:00I bought a grist mill,at an auction,a couple of ye...I bought a grist mill,at an auction,a couple of years ago, but have yet to try grinding anything on it. I keep thinking I will tackle it one day, but I said the same thing about a pasta machine I have had for 10 years or more. Maybe one day soon,I'll dig them out and give them a try.Sue from Ky.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06555815218871299696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5075656855458954651.post-26879976484798985882011-01-18T20:58:43.510-07:002011-01-18T20:58:43.510-07:00Thanks Sharon.
