    A lot of food for $100 !! :D
    I can shop the weekly specials because I have 5 different grocery stores within 3 miles of my house.
    Great money saving for now but maybe too populated in a SHTF situation.

    For anyone that lives in the Southeast, Ingles has a sale on 10# bags
    of Idaho potatoes for only $2, great deal!!

        If you've got a dehydrator... there's no such thing as too many potatoes.
        I'm thinking about getting busy with about 40#'s of them.
        Easy instructions on the internet if you've never done them before.

        Trust me, rice will get monotonous real quick.
