THERESE LIVELLA 7/04/2019 8:44 AMI was very nervous about doing this but they were really excited to see my containers and thanked me for bringing them in! I bought some salad from the deli too. Be sure to have them take the tear weight so you don't get charged for the weight of your container! In the bulk section I bought the ingredients to make my own trail mix. I have been drying the strawberries and blueberries that come out of my garden so all I buy is nuts and sesame sticks. I will be requesting they get come kind of M&M in bulk because life is better with chocolate! -
