Price of Sugar - Future Outlook

I just ordered 800 lbs at 60 cents a lb. I sure hope it comes down.

Wow. $.60 that's hard. I was looking today and the price was .58 and back in Oct I bought for $.34.:banana: This keeps up I'll have to raise my honey price to do somewhat of an offset YTD expenses. I need a sugar broker.

I was at Rossman's in Moultrie, GA yesterday. He has 5lb bags of sugar...I don't recall the exact price but it was under .30/lb. I think he gets the stuff that's beyond its 'expiration'.

I was at WalMart this evening. 10 pound bags of sugar are $5.48.

4 lb bags at walmart here are $1.82, that works out to 45-1/2 cents per lb. Everywhere else I checked was around 58 cents per pound in 50 lb bags.

Walmart in Cheyenne WY has 50 puonds for 11.78 works out to .24 per pound

hmmm Wal-Mart here has 25 pound bags for $11.xx....

UMMM Brain malfunction you are right they are 25 puond Sorry:doh:

aw shucks! And I was going to take your info into my local Wally World and ask about their "low price guarantee!" :lpf: Thats still about 47 cents a pound...

I stopped by Aldi grocery store today. 5lb baggs for $1.59 makes it 31.8 cents per pound

Aldi's in Mt. Vernon, Ohio had 5 pound bags of sugar for $2.06 this afternoon. That's 41 cents per pound.

Checked walmart in Philadelphia last night and 5 lb was $3.88

Let us know what price they quote you! :applause:

From what I have seen in stores the cheapest is by far Aldis to purchase sugar. This was true when I lived in KC and is still true now that I live in NY. Though I was fairly disappointed yesterday when I found their price jumped to 2.39 per 5lbs bag. Last time I bought it there (this past DEC) it was 1.59 per 5 lbs bag. Still the other local wholesaler stores want 15.99 per 25 lbs bag. For the meager 350 lbs of sugar I just bought yesterday I saved $50.00 by going to Aldi's and buying it in smaller quantities. You know its great to see their faces when I fill up an entire carriage full of sugar. I just tell them its for all my girls and make em wonder.

Last time I bought it, it was 2000# for $220.

I picked up a 25 lbs bag of sugar at Winco, which placed the price of sugar at $0.51/Lbs. By Saturday, it will be gone.

Hey Ted, let me know if you take a vacation to Colorado. I will take 4000 lbs from you. On the plus side this allows you to take your vacation as a tax deduction since it really is business. Sure wish you were closer.
