Yeah! I live in SF and go to my corner Mexican Market and get 12 lemons for $2. I always get weird looks when walking out with 36 lemons. heh. Definitely NOT organic but I am so not paying $1 for just two.
Also, (and most of you veterans probably know this) I get my maple syrup from my health food store and its in bulk form. Its organic and grade B and a really lovely dark color. Its just under $10 for 32oz. Amazing.
