Sugar rush

Feeding the bees for several weeks is important. They like a 1:1 ratio solution of sugar to water. And at the rate they eat, I'm replenishing their feeder every day. This takes a LOT of sugar. Thankfully, I only have one hive to feed right now.

So, I made a trip to Aldi yesterday to stock up on sugar, where I found enormous savings over the regular grocery store. (Of course, I didn't stick to buying JUST sugar, so I'm not sure if that ultimately qualifies as "enormous savings.") Maybe I'll try Sam's for my next sugar shopping expedition. If you have suggestions for other places to save on sugar, send 'em. Before the bees bankrupt me, please.
