[Mikej]

Right now "The Barn" out on NE 148th between Airport Way and Marine Dr have 50# boxes of freash out of the field red potatoes for $24.95 a box, BOGO. That's only $.25 a pound for 100 pounds.. Get one for yourself and drop one at the food bank. Help the old couple next door! Or?

Nothing better than a pot full of potatoes (leave the skin on), sauerkraut and sausages on a cold and rainy day.

OK. I will spell it out for you.

50# boxes of freash out of the field red potatoes for $24.95 a box, BOGO. That's only $.25 a pound for 100 pounds..

50 pound box times 2 = 100 at 24.95 a box = 49.90 = Just a Blount hair under $.50 a lb.

This is why the Irish starved to death.

BOGO = Buy One Get One free. Two 50# pound boxes for $24.95 = .24.95 cents per pound. I guess a person has to be chief cook and bottle washer/chef to pick up on it.

The point of the original post was to put out the good deal a person could get on fresh potatoes that TASTE WAY BETTER than the "Treated" store bought. It wasn't as some joke. I don't care for the off taste plain old store bought have. I guess I spent too many years growing my own.

Or wound up on Bondi Beach in an Australian penal colony. Look how green they've made the water.... WHOA!!

I always find it funny when someone thinks they are going to be real smart and they post something like this not realizing their own ignorance...

Be Original Grow Organic = the problem with people being lazy and not writing what they mean so it could be interpreted different ways, also any time I but 1 I get 1
so it should have been put as BOGOF as in buy one get one free
