How much is?

we used to freeze milk when I was a kid. Then my mom got this like 100 pound bag of powdered milk which is just plain NASTY!!!We would just stick the milk in the freezer though and when we needed it just pull it out and put it in the fridge
 
I'm in Ely, Nevada (three hours from Vegas) and we pay $1.50 for SaraLee whole grain bread. We usually get it the day the bread man comes and marks it down. We stock up on it - usually buying five loaves at a time.

Gas here is $2.09 but they can get away with that here because we're so isolated.

Milk here is $2.59 and we go through a gallon a day! LOL

We pay $7.43 for a gallon jug here in Nova Scotia!

Bread depends on the type, but the kind we buy is $2.69 if not on sale.

Gas right now is around 89 cents per litre which is about $3.37/gallon.

Ouch Jennifer, that is insane for milk!! $4.50 is scary enough, when we go through 2-3 a week.

And our gas is 91 cents per litre, so your fuel is cheaper. lol
 
I'm not sure about bread, because we get it at Sam's.. and it's like $3 something for 2 loaves.

Milk is $3ish a gallon.

Kansas City area. :)

I'd rather pay the extra 2 cents per litre and get milk for $4.50 a gallon! LOL We go through milk more than we do gas.
 
I shop at the commissary on Ft Lewis, Wa, so it is a little cheaper than regular stores, but bread is about $1.50 and a gallon of milk is $1.77

Haahaha! I call it wal-fart too. Can you freeze milk for real, or did you mean bread? I had never heard of that. What do you do, just stick it in a separate freezer or something? Enlighten me from your secret location under Richard Simmons bed :p

Yep, milk (we use 1% or 2%). We have a great big chest-freezer for it. You've gotta dump a bit out (just into the container currently in use) so it doesn't explode in the freezer but that's about it.

When we're about to run out, we grab a gallon from the freezer, let it thaw for like 2 or 3 days in the fridge... then you have to shake the begeezus out of it cuz it separates when it thaws. It tastes the same and looks the same... the texture is slightly different but my kids don't ever know the difference if I don't tell them though. *shrug*
 
LOL I know!! That was ohhh about 20-22 years ago that my mom bought that stuff and supposedly it has improved since then but the memories of it as a kid makes me nauseous still!! It always had little lumps of powder in it and had an odd sweet flavor to it. Just not good at all

OMGAH Powdered milk, except for baking/cooking/coffee purposes, should be against the law. Freaking GAG ME WITH A SPOON! :thumbdown:

Wonder bread...the whole grain version, is about $2.40 a loaf. Generic sandwich bread is $1.89 and the artisan bakery bread is $4. Milk, the 2% variety varies from $2.99 to $3.50 depending on where you get it it
 
I'm in Germany, but shop at the Commissary, so prices aren't as high as they would be in German stores.

1/2 Gal Organic Milk: $4.39
Loaf of Wonder Bread: $1.79
Gas: $2.26 gal
 
I don't even know how much our bread is. I'm pretty sure it's less than $2. Maybe like $1.50ish for a loaf of whole wheat bread.

We get a half gallon of Horizon milk for $3.68.
 
I couldn't begin to tell you as dh does the shopping,lol. But I think 2% milk's somewhere around $2.39 a gallon maybe here in NW Ohio. What bread is i've no clue, and about all I know is that gas is under 2 bucks a gallon (I think,lol).
 
Ok, it took me a little while to convert it all, so here is....

Sydney, Australia,

Bread $US2.11 per loaf
Milk $US7.25 per gallon
Fuel (Gas) $3.36 per gallon
 
I'm in Malaysia, and we pay $5 for a gallon of fresh milk. Freshly baked, wholemeal, melt in your mouth, too hot to seal the bag bread is abou $1.35. The cheap white bread is only 70 cents, but I try to avoid that at all costs.
 
Really interesting seeing how things vary even within a geographic region.

I'm in South Dakota and I buy the day-old bread for between $1.25 (white) and $1.75 (wheat). Milk is around $2.79 and I think gas is at $1.80.
 
Food is expensive here, IMO. I live outside Washington, DC.

gallon of 1% store-brand milk $3.49
name-brand whole wheat bread $3.99
specialty bakery breads are $4-$6
gas $1.90 or so
