That $8.49 deer corn is a 40 lb bag.
8.49+tax comes to $9.33 so that’s $0.24 per pound.
I pay $9.95 (including tax) for a 50 lb bag at my local feed store.
That’s $0.20 per pound.
If you're referring to me we don't pay taxes, and our local feed guys are expensive and douche bags. I only buy 8-10 bags a year anyway so it's not really an issue
