Baking Soda for $0.75 a lb plus $5.99 shipping

[Briant2468]

Amazon is selling Baking Soda for $0.75 a lb plus $5.99 shipping. I’m new so I hope this is a good deal. If not let me know.

Arm & Hammer Baking Soda, 16 Oz https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07G9XXWKJ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_mLy0EbCCEKYXM

Walmart normally has a 12 pound bag for about $8. At the store.

Generic at my grocery store is usually about $0.50 per 1lb box. I think we picked up 8 lbs of Arm and Hammer for about $5-6.

That's not Amazon but rather an Amazon Marketplace seller. You'll often see products priced cheaply but with a high shipping charge. That is to discourage returning a bad or defective product (the price is really built into the shipping charge.) Any time I see a product like that I move on, as I know it is an unscrupulous seller--that Amazon shouldn't allow, so shame on them too. In this case it is pure ripoff top to bottom. My local HEB (supermarket) sells a house brand 13.5 lb bag of baking soda for $6.79, and since it's a food product, it also is not subject to sales tax. Check your local market. I think even Arm & Hammer has a similar big bag of baking soda.

Somehow, I think the OP was being sarcastic...

On a different forum, we denote sarcasm by GREEN TEXT.

BJs has 13lbs for $6.99 all year in case anybody is a member. I imagine costco/sams has similar.

I've never had any difficulty buying cheap baking soda at any nearby store.
