That's fair. Goodness knows I would eat the fuck out of those peppers, though I'm still confused about where you're buying them so cheaply. :( Red peppers are my favorite thing, and I eat them like apples. (Which naturally turned bad for me last time when I bit into one and found the mold after the fact. >_>)

I mean, you can buy carrots by the carrot, if you're buying the expensive gourmet organic ones? But then the price/carrot is too expensive for me, you know? It adds up, even when I wish it didn't. :(

I get regular and imported carrots (the fist sized Asian variety) as well as new carrots (with the tops) at my grocery store. The normal kind are usually on for around $0.79/lb, or ~$0.15/carrot which is significantly cheaper than the bagged variety if you're looking to only purchase a few. The imported Asian ones can go as low as $0.69/lb on sale and those are usually the kind I buy since I only need to get 2-3 of them and it's the same as getting 4-6 normal carrots.

The kinds of bell peppers we have are the pricy organic ones and he sweet bagged kinds and those can run you around $4-5 a bag for 3-5 peppers. However, the ones I get are $2.49/lb which works out to around $0.70-0.80 for one medium bell pepper.

...I now wish I could send you some peppers because there's clearly some produce witchcraft going on.

I did just check, and Walmart (only place with their price online, but generally one of the cheaper places if you're not buying in bulk) has them for $0.86/lb, but I feel icky knowing that now because I hate Walmart. :I I have never seen the Asian variety, though. Peppers are between $1.50~$1.99/pepper, though I don't like the green ones, which probably is messing with the price.

I'm 99.9% sure it's because I'm in a college town, so they jack up the prices, but that might be my bitter student ass talking.

I wish. I like bell peppers. Except when they're moldy. :(

Oh don't worry, I'll be over here joining in your hatred of Wal Mart and being bitter about living in a University town lol.

The worst part is that it's not even a proper goddamn Walmart! It's just a walmart supermarket, which sounds weird to complain about given that I do hate walmart, but as much as I hate it, I don't have a lot of money, and Walmart is cheap, and there have been many times where I've had to put off buying something Important until I could go back to my hometown and go to the walmart there or get my Mum to buy it, because everything around here is so expensive. (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻.

I count myself pretty fortunate in that I have a local supermarket chain with pretty ridiculously low prices that I can shop at without having to resort to abandoning my morals re: megacorporations.

Otherwise I'm pretty sure I would have never made it through my degree lol.

I do have a decent supermarket here, but it's specialty is bulk items (not like, a costco or a sams club or like that, but bulk items nonetheless).

I meant, less perishable Important Things, like, bras, socks, clothing, stuff like that. Unfortunately, Walmart is the only place I have found that has bras in both (a) my size and (b) price range. There is a nice store in my hometown that sells them, but they run in the $40~$50 range which is a bit much for me.

That's fair. Underwear buying is a giant chore, and moreso for women with the whole having to get decent fitting bras thing. I can see it.
