    I know it’s here somewhere but for the life of me no matter how I search I can’t find it.

    I use to use Azure to buy in bulk.  but they have switched pick up days and it’s just not working for me.  I need to find another place to buy oats (not quick) and spices from.  anyone have a suggestion?

    I use Bob’s Red Mill for some special things, but the shiping is expensive.

    Emergency Essentials has $12.00 shipping no matter how much you buy. I’ve had a freight truck with a lift gate and dolly come just for me from Fedex for $12.00 with Emergency Essentials! The guy said it would have cost $90 just to use the lift gate alone.

    You could check out Someting Better NAtural Foods. I use them as well.

    It says to call them if you don’t see your city (which MN isn’t on there, but you could still make an inquiry and/or put in a request).

    I get some cereals from Bob’s that would cost more at the store in tiny little packages (even with shipping). But I get whole wheat and spelt grain and oat groats from Emergency Essentials. Bob’s oat groats are more impressive, but when the shipping is as much or more than the food, it’s hard to go that route. Emergency Essentials’ website is beprepared.com
