The cornmeal is $.79 per lb in bulk so you will get well over a pound with the $1.25. I thought we could use a cheaper rate when calculating at home items. For example, if you find a lb of butter for $3.00 you can use that price divided by your quantity (1/4 is the minimum). Also, I found some spices at Ollies for $.69. So if you have one of those spices at home and say you are planning on using half, $.35 would be charged against your allowance. So you may still have some wiggle room if you do some more comparison pricing.Sharon Stadulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17916393671635117760noreply@blogger.com
