Hey...that might be a blessing in my case.

A record low peanut crop has resulted in the rise in prices. Right now only the big distributors are talking price hikes but if the cost of peanuts is driving it, look for even generic to cost more.

My advice: HOARD! (Wait...that's bad advice...um...)

What I meant to say is, pick up a few jars while the price is still low if you, like me, love yourself some peanut butter!!!

Yeah, this is a double edged sword.  On the one hand, I wont get as much peanut butter...on the other hand I WONT EAT AS MUCH PEANUT BUTTER!!

My family is going to be ticked when they don't get PB fudge at Christmas!!

And if you email Jiff, they will send you a couple coupons!  Mine got here about two days after I emailed them and asked for coupons.  55 cents off.

Almond butter. It is better for you anyway. But more expensive anyway.  Ouch for the price hike....

this really sucks in my house.  4 boys, 3 lunches to make and my oldest eats PB like it is the best thing on earth.
