Sugar price down??

Am I mis-remembering? A 50lb bag of sugar at Sam's is $16 now. My brain keeps telling me that a 25lb bag was almost that much 2 years ago. Am I losing it or is sugar really down in price this year?

Yeah I recon that seems aweful cheap. If a 50 lbs bag is that cheap you might just want to buy all you can.
That's about right around 30-33 cents @pound for 50lb bags. Costco for last couple of years has been in that range..
I didn't see any bags that big at my local Sam's
Based on this sugar price thread from about 13 months ago, sugar does seem to be slightly cheaper this spring.

Walmart was $10.58 on 25 lb bags today. Biggest bags they had and only 2 in stock.
I have found sugar prices vary as much as $4.00a bag at different Walmart stores. That surprised me . I live 15 miles from a Walmart in Mo and 15 miles from one in Ok. I thought 2 stores that close to each other would be the same but I was wrong.
Wal-Mart is not always the cheapest place to shop. They would like for you to think so though.
Aldi's here is .32 /lb in 4 lb bags which is a bit of a pain to open up a million bags but I can't resist the cheap price.

That's a very good price....Best price in my end of the world is 19.89 for a 50lb bag.....I'd lay in a store if I were you (and you actually need it) ;)
It's definitely a lot cheaper now than a year ago. I now remember paying $13 for 25lb Great value brand bag at Walmart last year. WM doesn't carry 50lb bags it SAMs does.
