Not sure if this goes here or not, but here goes. Reading the updates on another thread I posted got me thinking. I should probably check prices and see what buying larger quantities might get me. So, I started with yeast as that is the easiest to store. I realized something that I had not really paid attention to in the past. At least in my memory, the S05 that I have used quite often has gone up in price. I seem to remember it being around 3.50 or so a packet the last time I used it. Now, Morebeer has it about about 5.50 a packet or so. Granted, not much of an increase in the scope of things, but I wonder how much other items have gone up as well. Will this break my bank? No. But I just noticed it and thought I would post to see what you all thought and where you get your supplies that might be a bit easier on the wallet. I use Morebeer simply because they have been fast, have all the items I have been looking for and shipping is free over I think it is 50 bucks or so. This realisation might get me off my butt to try and harvest yeast just to see how I can do it, or look for bulk buys on certain items like dry yeast that can be kept and not affect the fridge space. Not sure if this is even going to be much of a discussion, but thought I would throw it out there to see what you all thought.
