Anyone Know of Any Cheap Blueberries Sellers in W.A?

Friends,

On average I consume 1400g of blueberries/ week. While Coles has the occasional reduction to $2.50/125g, that still means I'm paying near $30/week for fresh berries. Does anyone know of any cheap sellers in W.A? The only requirements are Australian grown and fresh. Frozen simply won't do.

    I didn't know economy/family size packs are referred to as "en mass*.

    :S was expecting unit of measurement in the bushels, not grams.

    • Friend, was a requirement for the title. I originally just had "blueberries" but it was too short.

      • This is what "masse"is. Good luck doing that with your blueberries :p

        Unless you're French or Mtian, then your use of the word is totally understandable:)

    Depends where in WA you're wanting them. The Blueberry Farm, in Piesse Brook (6076), currently have seconds at $14/kg according to their facebook page.

    • Friend, thanks. Seems their normal price isn't too great, but their seconds don't look too bad.

    Watch Violet Beauregarde in "Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory"

    It doesn't end well… lol

  • Is your poo purple cos my toddler eats 1/ 2 a punnet per day and his always are. He freaks out if its ever any other colour.

    • I'd be watching him around his own doo doo incase he is trying to go for seconds with his number two.

        He's fully toilet-trained at not-quite-three and likes, nay demands, that at least one member of his family acknowledges this achievement by farewelling his poo with a song before he will flush it down the toilet. So no risk of him going for seconds :)

          I mourn the songs not sung to my passings long passed.

          Where were the cheers, the praise. Where was my recognition?

          Alas, as the writing hand having written, the sphincter having sphunct, my poop has moved on.

          • @[Deactivated]: I can imagine you sitting on the toilet right now.

            Your brown baby makes his way out of the belly button of your bot-bot.

            He peeks through, and looks into the majestic waters he's about to enter.

            He glides out of you like a graceful bat in the night sky.

            His little pellets plunge into the water like ducklings.

            They sink to their shallowy grave,

            never again to be seen after the final wave.

            Farewell little ones, farewell not-so-little ones.

            You will not be missed.

            • @[Deactivated]: I'm generally constipated.

              My baby doesn't take natural flight before diving into the abyss.

              Instead, it takes a degree in aerodynamic engineering. Unable to take off, it stays for a masters. It sticks its neck out for a feel of the job market.

              Nope. Back for a PhD.

              It's generally overstayed it's welcome before being quite violently ejected from its last known residence.

              I believe this story has motivated many people to live parallel lives. Well, here lies the origin of the phenomenon.

                @[Deactivated]: So many jokes I could make
                but constipation is no joking matter,
                or so I've been told by those that suffer
                from such a dire fate as you.

                "'tis as painful as it gets", they said,
                with helpless tears running down their face.
                "For those jagged briquettes to pass down
                something quite so small, tearing their way through ,
                only to hang around like anal stalactites…."

                "Oh woe is me!
                oh woe are all my constipated brothers and sisters!" They lamented.
                "Long minutes of great effort,
                then triumphant joy and smiles
                soon fading as you realise
                that you've just developed piles!" They sobbed.

                "I beg of you, dear friend,
                that you eat your brans and your fibers,
                and drink water aplenty
                so that you may never know
                the misfortune of the consequence
                of a motion that wish to remain motionless!"

                The warnings of those poor souls
                did not on deaf ears fall.
                I eat my brans and my fibers.
                and drink water aplenty,
                so that I may never know
                such a dire fate as them or you.

                :p

                  @[Deactivated]: Time for you to get off the John. There are other people in the house that wish to bake brownies blueberry slices.

                  • @[Deactivated]: Luckily, it's a multi-Johns house :)

    Whats up?

      Friend, how much per hour?

  • Just wondering why frozen isn't acceptable. My understanding is that they are fresher.

    • and I find, more fun to eat. I prefer both frozen berries and frozen mangoes.

  • I went to a market today, and a guy from Northcliffe had blueberry's for $10 a kilo. If I had read your post yesterday, I would have got his details. Sorry. But as Northcliffe is a very small town, ring their CRC.
