    Default powdered milk

    i have started stockpiling powdered milk ever since I found it at our Kroger outlet store for $4.68 a box!!! 31 servings in each box.

    Anyone else stockpile powdered milk.

    I have one box. Don't use much of it. I tend to forget when cooking. However if I thought a need was coming at me then I would start stockpiling it in a heartbeat.

    Ooh, I will have to look at Kroger and see if mine has that price! I have been stocking up, but we were going to start buying the #10 cans- they're about $80 a case.

    That's a great price! If I could get it that cheap, I would be stocking up too.

    I always keep a box on hand for cooking, making "half and half", cream soups, etc.

    I have not stockpiled powdered milk. I have never thought of it, do not know why.

    I always keep powdered milk on hand for cooking etc. will use a small peanut butter jar to mix it in and make as I need it. I have noticed the price going UP and the boxes getting smaller. . So now I have two boxes stored, that used to equal one box.

    Cant stand to drink it tho, the smell gets to me

    I bought a box of it to keep around for odd & end cooking, especially if what I am making is going to use up all the other milk.

    The prices are getting crazy here for it, the 8 envelope box was $7.99

    I started looking in to ordering powdered milk, I just want to TASTE it before I buy a few cans... I heard Morning Moo is suppose to be good.
    I can't be out of money... I still have checks left!
