[QUOTE="Marie 2, post: 2635556, member: 475037"] Okay, too funny. We have something called Costco here and it's a "warehouse" store. A large large store that carries things in quantity, but it doesn't always have everything or carry a variety or selection. It's usually a lot cheaper and they focus on their own brand. 1-2 people it can be harder to shop for. 12 peaches in a box, 4.5 Kilogram (10 lb) box of oranges, 24 toilet paper rolls type of thing. Some of it is fine but in some things you just don't want the quantity for 2 people. So we discovered they had a 1.8 Kilo (4 lb) frozen blend bag of veggies for the same price as a .45 Kilo (12oz) bag at the regular grocery store. Pure veggies, great for me I add what I want to flavor them anyway. I have a large bowl of veggies almost daily. But they have only had the one blend there since we first discovered it about 6 months ago. I've told my husband to keep an eye out for different blends. Well, they did finally get in more blends..........my husband came home with 5 bags of different kinds, each bag at 1.8 & 2.7 Kilograms (4&6 lb) ........... He was proud of himself too, he goes I sort of splurged on you, but all of them only cost 27 GBP ($34). We do have an extra freezer because on our island things can be out for months, especially on specialty vegan food at any store. So if you find something you get a bunch because you're not sure when it will come back or if it even will. But I really don't think I needed that many veggies all at once. [/QUOTE]
