Made my 50th loaf of bread today in the bread machine. Store-bought bread averages about $2.50 a loaf, so 50 loaves would be $125. Bread machine cost $100 and I figure the flour and other ingredients for those was well under $25.
Here’s to 50 more loaves of fresh baked bread.
Agreed, I haven’t bought bread in a decade!
My bulk bread flour has jumped up to about 50¢/lb. but food is relatively expensive where I live.
I"m not sure what the actual bulk price is here, but the little 5lb bags are like $2.60. When I say “buy in bulk” I mostly mean I buy a lot of something when it goes on sale. Back in March, there was a weekend where you got 15% off your entire purchase on top of whatever was normally on sale. Flour was buy-one, get-one at the time, so I basically filled up a cart lol. I’m still baking through it and have about 15 bags left. 😆
Nice deal!
