Website Found for Bulk Items and Then Some

It's called https://www.webstaurantstore.com/restau ... ables.html so it's a lot of restaurant items but many are sold in smaller sizes. Some appear to be a deal others not so. Going to Aldi's today to price things out as they are the local competitive for basic items.

The long and short of it is looks like we will be ordering at sometime in the not so distant future to restock the pantry after winter. We'll be checking with friends and neighbors to see if they might want to go in with us that we may save on shipping. Just doing some quick prelim checks and at over 60 lbs of items the shipping so far is about 36% of the total. Will work out a more solid order and see if that will go down.

Anyone in the greater Syracuse maybe go out as far as Rochester (meet 1/2 way, maybe more?) if any other fellow RCers out there have an interest. They are out of Lancaster, PA so not so far away for us in Upstate, NY.

Any interest? Alternatives?

Not sure where you are in wny but they carry all the same things much cheap at restaurant depot stores. There is one in buffalo and rochester. I'm not sure about Syracuse. Any restaurant, club,church,etc can get a card to one and no shipping.

Thanks, never heard of it. Will look into it. Anyway, Aldi won on most items and pre-shipping hands down. Sooooo, never mind. Whooda thought?
