Shopping around the World with Bacon and Fozzie

This month we are joining Bacon and Fozzie's Shopping Around the World and doing a comparison of FIVE items from two different stores.  For our comparison we are using the Commissary and Publix. Now is all fairness we must point out we do not pay tax at the Commissary - it is one of the perks Dad gets for his years in the Military. Here are our items

Items                                                               Commissary                                     Publix
Edy's Frozen Custard                                       $3.99                                                $6.49
EB Cage Free Eggs                                          $2.99                                                $4.99
Oscar Mayer Bacon                                          $3.99                                                $6.99
Jar Soft Milkbone Treats                                  $4.99                                                $12.99
Noosa Yoghurt                                                  $1.79                                                $2.49

  12. Wow -- can we come and shope at the commissary, to. We have the Davis-Monthan Airforce base here in Tucson, but it is too far for me to visit when I manage to get free of Mum (although I have not even being doing that lately).

    Enjoy

  13. That's quite a difference ...though I am partial to Publix because that's where my grandma used to shop and brings back fond memories. Hope you are feeling better.

  16. Wow,the commissary has great prices, especially for the milkbones! Wish we had one near us. I guess that's something to think about when we're ready to retire...be near a VA and a commissary.

  19. My mom won't go to Publix when we are in FL because it is so expensive. All the groceries are more than here at home, but Publix prices are nuts.

  25. Mom grew up shopping in a commissary and was in the Air Force. I can see their prices are still much lower than regular stores. I wonder how they compare to Wal-Mart? Love Dolly
