Price Check King Cove

Everyone told me that it was going to be twice to three times as expensive to buy things here as it was in Minnesota but I am still surprised by some of the stuff.

Examples:
Bag of Tositos- 2.99 Minneapolis, 9.80 King Cove
1lb of Butter, 1.99 Minneapolis, 6.35 King Cove
1/2 Gallon Milk, 1.45 Minneapolis, 5.50 King Cove
Spices of any kind are at least 7.00 here.
Tomatoes-1.99 lb Minneapolis, 7.00lb King Cove
1 Banana, 30 cents Minneapolis, 1.90 King Cove
Grapes 2lbs- 3.99 Minneapolis, 15 dollars King Cove
4lb Watermelon, 5.00 Minneapolis, 34 dollars King Cove


Suffice to say I will be putting in a SpanAlaska order or getting food in bulk. Its just that sometimes you want a snack food, fresh fruit and veggies, or juice and that is where it gets pricey.
