I have seen lettuce at $2.00+.  Guess what I done, put it back.  Hope Basil will plant some to have fresh this year.  I would love some good fresh lettuce instead of peas this year.  Even the cumcubers were high last spring.  ________________________________ From: Palmertree Listowner <palmertree.listowner@gmail.com> To: palmertree@rootsweb.com Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2013 7:21 PM Subject: Re: [PTREE] salad I don't think I'll be eating much green salad for a while.

The last time I priced lettuce here it was $1.25. Think it was Monday.... I usually buy spinach in the bag. Aldi has it on sale a lot for .99 and if its not on sale, Walmart has it for $2.15 a bag. Doesn't last as long as Aldi's for some reason ... but both of them last longer than Publix's bags of spinach and they charge alot more.
