Farm stand haul vs Kroger — An Approximation
I wanted to find out more about the cost of juicing. I didn’t write down individual prices at the farm stand but I did at Kroger. I will revisit this spreadsheet when I go back to the farm stand later this week.
| Quantity | Item | Cost at Irma’s | Qty Kroger | Cost at Krogers | Notes | |
| 1 | Pumpkin | 6 | 1 | 1 | Kroger’s are dinky but their pie pumpkins were $1.00. I will get better pricing next time I’m at the store. | |
