- marincounty 11y agoThe basics at WF's are reasonably priced. I want to hate stores, but the CEO did a good job lowering prices on certain items. 1/2 gallon milk is $2.29. Some bread is reasonable. Their store brand (nature someting) is a good deal. They got a $2.49 bottle of wine that's a lost leader. Everything else is priced for Thurston Howell III.
- dmoy 11y agoBeen a bit since I bought a gallon of milk, but I distinctly remember it being <$3. How is $2.29 for a half gallon a reasonable price? But then again, I also balk at paying >$1 for a loaf of bread so maybe I'm just a cheapskate.
- parenthephobia 11y agoPrices very significantly depending upon where you are. Across the whole country, $2.29 is fairly average for a half-gallon, but in Detroit the average is about $1.50.
