It's just a small savings, but I know a lot of BC-ers cross the border into Washington to buy milk, as it's a couple dollars cheaper per gallon here (gov't subsidies to the dairy farms) compared to what you pay there. Regular price on milk in our area these days, is about $2.59 to $2.79. Don't know how that compares to what you pay in your area.Lilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292553654219380455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2302691153455448442.post-12517216370411557252013-06-03T15:58:26.752-07:002013-06-03T15:58:26.752-07:00Everything seems so costly these days.

I have to research further the entire list of limitations though.
