    Our Blue Seal store has “some” pricing, but they are really fun and interactive people, that I just ask when things are not listed. I purchased all the grains I wanted in bulk. None were in the store, but they looked each one up, told me the price, placed them into my order if I wanted it. Paid, then went to the delivery/pick-up pad where they loaded it all into my vehicle.

    I tried Agway, and usually a good place to buy from, something has changed, where the pricing is much higher than other places and they are a wee bit snobbish. sigh…I’ve been purchasing wild bird seed from them for a long time. I have a Duncraft about a mile away that I can get my wild bird feed from.

    If you do go into business for yourself, and if your prices are a little higher than others around you, make sure you have great customer service. I always go back to where the custer service appreciates their customer.

    Yes, we have TSC but we have transitioned, and I’m really happy because Blue Seal is less costly.
