COST COMPARISON - Walmart was a little hard to do a direct price comparison with since some of their produce is pre-packaged, but if you had gone to Walmart this week and had been able to open some of the packages and only pay for the portion you took, you would have spent about $34. Of course, you cannot open packaging, so you would have really spent about $43 for all you received in a regular share, as well as a few extra grapefruit, oranges and potatoes.
