Especially bulk canned items. For example, I find that I really notice a difference when eating a canned soup as opposed to a home made recipe for vegetable soup. However, I think many will easily throw out the organic items.

Unfortunately, the items on our list last month are not always in stock this month (much like Walmart). So we try to stay somewhat flexible in our purchase of substitutes and multi-month purchases. We also constantly compare prices to see if prices of the same item are cheaper at other stores. For example, diapers may be cheaper at Sam's one month, and then cheaper at Walmart the next.

I have found great deals and then bought food in bulk, but I must admit that it hardly was healthy food.
