I know everyone buys spices and flavorings in those little bottles with the red lids, or the massive bottle from the warehouse clubs, but I have an even better idea!
Look down the ethnic food aisles in your grocery stores!
Go ahead... I'll wait...
Back?
OK, good. Did you see them? You know... the el cheapo spices? Aren't they GREAT?
I will never buy "red lid" bay leaves again!
Check this out. These little babies are about 4 bucks at my store... and for 0.12 ounces. Ouch!
2 aisles over in the ethnic food isle sat this little gem.
Aaaaaand for the whopping price of 69 cents for a .25 ounce baggie! Talk about a great deal!
We use a LOT of bay leaves in our cooking. I love the flavor and until I can get fresh leaves, I will buy the cheaper brand.
I also picked up some sesame seeds while I was there.
These are about 4 bucks at my store as well. This is the 1 ounce container.
Hanging right beside the bay leaves were these.
This bag is a 1.5 ounce bag for... get this.... 59 cents!
Now don't get me wrong, I will still buy the big name spices. But I will ALWAYS use a coupon and try to get to the store that doubles. I have gotten plenty of FREE spices by doing this... and you can too!
