Do many of you know much about LDS Church cannery's in your area by any chance?
You can stock up on super cheap items, in bulk, which are great for any food storage!
Cool thing is that everyone is allowed to shop at the canery, as it's no longer limited to just church members. Being a church member, I just found this out a few weeks ago. If you're interested in knowing more, I'll send you a link via PM.
