Wal-Mart has a 2 pack bread flour 5 lb each for $7.14 limit of the 2 pack online. Hurry if you need some. Had to hurry & find some other things to get free shipping.

yikes! that yeast I buy in the lb bag is sky high at walmart. I still got half bag of another brand left not paying 25-40 bucks for a bag of yeast.

Hwy. robbery.

They have some on Amazon. Do you have Prime? About $10.

Some other places have it but by the time you add shipping it's $15.

I'm using a package I just bought earlier this year.

I ordered another package online & they sent me a set of the red & gold package Saf yeast. Now I have 2 of the Saf yeast in the freezer. I'm not running out.

Making sure we still have flour, sugar, oil, butter etc so we can continue baking. At least we should have what we will need this fall since it's getting hot won't be doing a whole lot of baking except breads.

Made a 1 lb loaf of Sweet Oatmeal bread with molasses Sat. It's really good. It's already half gone. LOL!!! Never made bread with molasses before.

Yeah, walmart too expensive wrote them off went to amazon and got the lb bag with shp included for 12 something of the 'premium' saf. that will last yr or better.

I found the KA original all purpose flour at Walmart several weeks ago.  I tried the Bread Flour and it just isn't the same.  I make my bread in a Zojurishi Plus Bread Maker and it comes out perfectly using the all purpose flour. I don't follow the recipes that are in the book that came with the breadmaker. People are starting to slow down on their baking now and hopefully, there will be more flour available.

You must have an awfully big freezer to store a one lb of yeast.  I buy the small jars and keep them in the freezer.  Are you a commercial baker?

We do have a large freezer. I think it's around 20 cu.ft. 

Not a commercial baker.

A 1 lb block of yeast is small. It does not take up much space.

My freezer is packed full. I cannot get anything else in it.

Glad I stocked up on some beef before the price went up.

Sorry I misunderstood.  You buy the SAF yeast blocks (cakes).  I use the granulated active yeast and once I open it up I put it in the freezer.  SAF is a really good yeast but I use another brand. Thanks for responding.

I had half lb of the white bag of Saf. Went online to check the price for the red bag the 'high power Saf brand' and almost had a stroke. Walmart is wanting 25 to 40 bucks for the lb. bag

went to Amazon and couldn't click fast enough for 12 and free shipping

Threw in freezer  not waiting for it to go up as high as walmart prices.
