    They slowly downsize just a little when "nobody's looking" so you dont notice. Yes the price on them is nuts. The Walmart brand doritoes are just as good IMO. A LOT CHEAPER too.

    Sometime, I'd like to make quinoa chips.
    We're just simplifying our diets a little at a time. Skipping the expensive stuffola, making what we can.

    I've been making bread for 30 years. to heck with store bought stuff.

    As I sip Bailey's tonight . . .

    I just did a dry run for 2 cases and shipping was 72 bucks. Total would've been $140 before tax.

    Great deal before shipping.

    So I ended up buying a gallon of this Fram stuff. I left 1 in a cart on my phone, when I opened it back up they were offering 20% off order via popup thingy. So came to $12 even, for a gallon. I probably won't be reviewing any time soon as this is going into the oil stash and has many gallons ahead of it in line.

    My local menards ( 65 miles away) had this for $7.99 before 11% rebate. I grabbed 2 63731084-683B-4233-8D10-B07EB0C19065.jpeg
    it’s funny that I never thought about stocking up or hoarding bar oil before this thread started. I think this puts me right at 20 gallons of unopened jugs.
    Hanging out with you folks can sure change how one looks at all things firewood related.

    I am at just under 3 gallons supply at the moment. Realized that yesterday and thought I better get hoarding!
