Follow on Google News | Online Cooking Spices Seller Boldly Takes Competitors to TaskAn entry from Chef Monk's online journal says it all about outrageous markups on cooking spices, a hilarious & MUST read for any consumer who cooks.
Our new one ounce shipment for example? Shipping and handling is $1.56. Theirs? Still $4.90 and $4.00. There's NO reason for that other as far as we can see. Our 12 x 15 poly mailer costs us 16 cents, and a 2 ounce small package US mail plus 30 cents and 2.9% for PayPal come to about $1.56, which is what we charge you for shipping and handling. I'm sure the competition could figure that out also if they tried. And for a 9 ounce shipment? We top out at $3.19, while they haven't budged. And TheSpiceHouse.com goes to $8.90 shipping and handling when you hit a full pound. OUR 10 ounce shipment? $9.80 bottom line. Free shipping and handling. OUR 16 ounce shipment? $15.68. Final cost? 98 cents an ounce, free shipping and handling. It's up to you. You can buy spices for less or you can be a stamp collector. Try our new order page. Fiddle around with it. You don't even have to buy anything. Do some price comparisons and see how we stack up against our competition. We've done our homework here. And McCormick? Fugeddaboudit. Their bay leaves in our local Shop Rite (Bay Shore, NY 11706) We think you'll be back. And don't feel sorry for poor little us for our low price of 98 cents an ounce. We're STILL making a profit. We work smart. We're a lean, mean spice sellin' machine, and it's time for American Consumers to take cooking spices OFF the list of outrageously marked up products like bottled water (more expensive than gasoline when you buy by the serving) and microwave popcorn (which to our minds no such plant exists, we have often just dumped some store brand bulk bagged popcorn kernels into a paper bag and stuck it in the microwave for pennies). Sorry, McCormick. We love ya, but it's time for Americans to take this link, which skips the sales pitch and puts you right on the page of truth: For the lowest prices on quality, fresh cooking spice in America, or to get a free sample, visit http://www.dollaradaygourmet.com/ # # # Dollar a Day Gourmet is the web home of fantastic advice on how to save money on your food bills, innovative ideas to make life easier in the kitchen and better in the dining room, also THE place to get your very own private label spices for just 98 cents an ounce.
