Another shopping expedition, Mar 8

Today on the way home from Theatre Light & Sound class, we stopped at another Latin@ grocery store, Vallarta. 

 

Basically the same as El Super (including the gigantic chicharrones!), except that they have a bulk section with a variety of snack items, plus flax seeds, raw almonds, and mayocoba beans. PLUS this is the first store I've been in where they have WHOLE green peas!! These weren't in the bulk bins; they were sold in one pound bags for 99¢ which is a WAY better price than what I got before from Amazon: $8.95 for 2.5 pounds, which works out to $3.58 per pound. Even with free shipping from my Prime membership, that's almost quadruple the price! 

So now I know where to go to buy dried green peas by the bag, and mayocoba beans in bulk. Yay!
