Got some yesterday, mixed it up (yes, it really does mix better than it used to) and put it in fridge in a glass container. Tried it just now and -- it's good! I figure it saves @ $1 over a 4 litre bag of fresh milk. It's not a fortune but it will add up.
Awesome! I'm glad you liked it. I know the $ saved is not a lot, but you're right, it does add up. Cut a little here, a little there and before you know it you're saving $20 a month.
I drink a fair amount of milk so it helps out :-D
Where I am I pay over $6 for a 4 litre bag and that's too rich for my blood.
Happy savings :-D
. If I buy a 4 litre bag of fresh milk it costs @ $4 Canadian, so @ $1/litre. The bag of powdered milk I bought promises to make 25 litres of milk and cost me just under $20. I was doing "quick and dirty" math in the store -- figuring powdered was the equivalent of 6+ 4L bags of milk which would have cost me @ $24. (Buying fresh milk 4L at a time is the most cost-effective way to go. The smaller the container, the more expensive proportionately.)
