    It would be even cheaper if you bought them nearly anywhere else but the dollar store.

    Unit for unit, dollar stores are almost always more expensive than grocery stores or warehouse clubs.

      In this case, they are cheaper at the dollar store. I’ve compared prices at Walmart and grocery stores.

      Same with the packages of pre-cooked microwaveable rice.

      While I agree that dollar store prices can be higher, with the foods I buy they’re pretty consistently cheaper per ounce at the dollar store. Believe me, I compare!
