10kg flour for 7.99$ at superC

[eisafree]

Club Entrepôt Provigo, a warehouse store at 1005 Cure-Labelle in Laval, (they have other locations as well) is a place where when you buy multiple of stuff, is cheaper per item.

Anyway, last time I bought some (recently) it was $14.99 for 20 kg bag of flour.

I'll be in the area tomorrow, so I can double check the price. But it's a good place to check out, especially when the flour is not on sale somewhere else.

LOL! Sorry to freak you out. I got weevils in my food once in Vancouver and I had to throw everything out.

I remember I was like that when I was pregnant too... congratulations btw. It is your first?

thank you! Yes..it'S the first one in both family..and it might be the last! LOL!! Nausea++ (and I have 8 weeks to go, it WAS suppose to stop after the first trimester..so I guess I'm the 1% of statistics! )

OMG!!! You guys just freak me out!!

You want to hear something really gross? I've had weevils before from a bag of dog food, so I knew what they were.

A couple years ago, I noticed a few were flying around the house. So I start checking everywhere to find out where they were coming from, but I couldn't find them for the life of me!!! I checked the flour, crackers, pasta, cereal, etc.....

Out of desperation, I go into my spice container that had a few baggies of spices that I had bought at an Indian store on Cure Labelle (can't remember the name). Anyway, I had an unopened bag of curry that was in there maybe 2-3 months. The small bag was just filled with tiny holes - like a miniature machine gun had shot at it. The weevils had eaten their way through the plastic. The curry bag was literally full of 50-100 weevils just sitting around in there, not moving. I guess most of them had died or were hibernating? Who knows!!!!!!

But it was one of the most disgusting things I have ever seen. Since then, I do not buy bags of spices; only containers.

I was sick the whole time with both of mine too! LOL! No wonder you are cleaning and organizing like crazy - 8 weeks to go! Mother nature knows what she is doing.

All the best for an easy birth and a healthy baby

thanks for the info... my concern is tht I have to drive a bit to found a place like this one (at least 30km to go and an other 30 km to come back , and not really at the same place than my other stuff). If I could found one close to my run and or doctor or dentist, this will be a win. If not, I lost the price advantage in gas

At least this time superC is in my small town

heyhey, time to put some flour on freezer for me!!!

I go throught 10kg each month!!!

You can freeze flour?????? I didn't know that. How long can we keep on the shelves?

I don't recall ever seeing an expiry date on flour bags. I wish I could put some in the freezer but is too full : (

I had four pregnancies and none looked like. So do not worry, you never know.
