Title: Wheat... the staff of life
Post by: lisamiut on November 11, 2007, 03:55:24 PM
I have had SEVERAL reliable sources inform me that next year, wheat prices WILL increase - possibly significantly.  This in turn will affect, flour, pastas and rice.  If you have the opportunity to find good prices and stock up on these types of items - I WOULD. 

GOOD PRICES
Flour = $.12 per pound
Rice = $.35 per pound
Pastas = $.75 per 12 to 16 ounce box/bag

Note: I did not say EXCELLENT Prices!  Your price point may be different, I am just giving you a heads up on price increases soon. (I am guessing bread prices will also increase)

Yes, I noticed this. I bought 45 lb. buckets of wheat a little over a month ago for $15.99, I saw the exact same buckets (lehi roller mills brand sold at Maceys) for $26.99. Yikes!

Although I did drive by the Lehi Roller Mill in Lehi, and their November special is a 50 lb. bag of Wheat for $11.99, a good time to stock up!!!

Emergency Essentials usually has good prices on hand grinders.  I have also seen them at Maceys grocery store when they do their case lot sales.  If someone sees a good price, make sure you post it!

I have a friend that is aware of a group buy for a Blendtec electric wheat grinder.  It is this one:  http://www.blendtec.com/productDetails.aspx?id=49  The group buy price is $153 including shipping and tax.  She has had it for many years and loves it!  Personally, I don't own one--yet. PM me for more details.
