Do you do or buy something that you found a cheaper way recently? If so, share!
Mine is small, but it's how I came up with the idea for this thread:
It's cheaper to buy a fresh jalapeno from fresh produce section than one of those small cans in the mexican food area.
For years and years, when it's taco night I go to the grocery store, get some taco kits and grab a small can of jalapenos right next to the kits. It was fine when those small cans were a dollar or under, but they are two dollars and rising now.
I went to the produce aisle grabbed one to weigh it and price it, thinking it was $1.99/lb, probably the same as the can.
It was 16 cents. Ugh! I could kick myself!
Does anyone else have one?
