A New Way to Shop


My mom and I decided to check this out after a family friend mentioned there were some families in our ward participating in a co-op. We looked into it and decided to get a try to see if it was what it claimed to be. I am glad to say it was. The first time that you do it, it costs $17, but the next time it is $15. My mom only ordered one basket, that is what we took a picture of, I got two baskets.
They only do it twice a month and on Saturdays at several locations around Arizona and the valley. They also have other things available to buy at a discount price. For instance, I purchased bread that was made by Alpine Bakery. They also had fresh honey. Supposely they have different things at different times.
It was interesting because when I went on Saturday I took Jesse with me and our laundry baskets. There was a line and you wait patiently (quiety) in line. When you get to the front of the line you give your name and then they volunteer pulls your baskets aside and you go and empty it into your basket and leave. It reminds me of the Soup Nazi from Sienfield. It all happened within about 20 minutes of time and all the baskets were gone.
When we got home we washed the fruits and vegetables and cut them up and sealed them in my handy sealer. It all looks very yummy and my kids couldn't wait to eat it up. We will definately be doing this again it is well worth the price which wasn't a bad price to begin with! If you would like to try it out check out their website here it is . . . . www.bountifulbaskets.org
