How much do you pay for your spices?

November 24th, 2006 Posted in Frugal Living, Healthy Eating, This n That

Honestly….I can’t believe how much spices cost in the supermarket.  Even non organic brands (which we avoid due to spices being irradiated).  So unless its an emergency (and yes, I have been known to have “spice emergencies”…lol), I buy my spices from Mountain Rose Herbs.

Here are some examples of prices.

FLAVOR     SIZES:  4oz   8oz   1-lb

ORGANIC PARSLEY  3.75     6.75     12.00
ORGANIC ONION POWDER   2.75     4.00      7.00
ORGANIC SAGE   3.25     5.25     9.00
ORGANIC CINNAMON   2.50     3.50    5.00

Given that most spice jars range from 1/4 to 1/2 ounce and cost anywhere from $2 on up for that small amount.  This is a fabulous deal, even with including the shipping.

Plus if you get some buddies to order with you, you start getting discounts at 5lbs.
