Paid 4.99 for a 3 lb bag or organic and then 3.79 for a 5 pound bag at another store. Getting very expensive these days.

I know what you mean. Last bag of potatoes I bought (five pound bag) was almost $2 more than just what I paid a few weeks ago. Plus the more expensive bag (same name brand, same size bag) didnt last as long either. They started going bad quickly.
