So Cheap!

I'm not sure in which aisle, but apparently THIS is what they're selling at my neighborhood grocery store.

Bag Of Groceries Costs $60 In Manhattan

On of the (many) reasons I like living in Queens is the fact that a I'm only four subway stops from Manhattan - and yet everything here is so much cheaper.

Take, for instance, groceries. Every year the New York Post buys a dozen common grocery items at D'Agostinos, Food Emporium and Gristedes (the 3 major grocery store chains in Manhattan) to see how much they cost. This year's total came to a whopping $59.85 - up $9.11 from last year. Ouch. I would hate to see what those same 12 items cost at Whole Paycheck Foods!

If I had to venture a guess, those same items would probably be 25-30% cheaper at the Associated supermarket (below) around the corner from my apartment, or at the quirky Trade Fair a few blocks away.

I should have gotten out of Manhattan a long time ago...

Ya Learn Something New Every Day...

Those little bread tags are actually color coded to help stores easily identify when bread is getting old. The same code is also used for twist-ties. I had no idea!!

At first I was a little skeptical, but even SNOPES says it's true. However, one question immediately comes to mind: Doesn't anyone bake on Sunday? Is the bread industry stuck in 1958 ??
