Prior to this they were no about 2.99 a packet. Also the bread that they make they were selling 2 for $3.00. now $1.89 a loaf. Also she was told the reason why there is no flour on the shelf is because the mill has run out of 1.5 and 3kg bags to pack in.
Pams was started by dispensing product into bags.
