TJ's has a reputation for its bananas.

 

used to be $ 0.19 // banana , now its $ 0.24 // banana.

 

these are the inorganic bananas.

 

TJ's is also an internet favorite for buy this not that etc etc.

 

there have been articles on banana pricing.  why weigh a  banana ?

 

why bundle a banana in plastic ? etc etc.

 

one gets the impression that bananas are quite the deal @ Tj's/

 

I got 6 bananas the other day , at the going rate,

 

these were a bit larger than ' medium '

 

a mathematical analysis revealed these bananas came to $ 0.62 // lbs.

 

this week @ market basket bananas are $ 0.39 //lb , on sale , $ 0.10  off.

 

of course to take advantage of the Market Basket price , you have to go to M.B.

 

an added expense .

 

on that same vein :  Joe's O's are cheaper @ TJ's , then M.B.'s generic ' O's '

 

and Tj's ' bite sized ' generic shredded wheat are ~ $ 1.00 ++ more than M.B's brand 

 

and now Ill be taking a nap.

 

enough exercise for one day.
