How come 3lb is so expensive here at Amazon? Its only 4.99 at target

it is related to the shipping costs. Shipping a box with 3+ lbs can vary in cost between $8 - $15 depending on which state.

Melissa, I am not sure why there is such price disparity. Usually that indicates hat the particular Yummy Stuffer (alligator here) might be in low supply. I say, "Buy it at Target!" if you can get it for $20 there and shop at Amazon next time - It is my favorite place for shopping - so easy!!My son LOVES this Alligator Tummy Stuffer, by the way. He's 6. It fits an amazing amount of toys - I was pleasantly surprised.Susan

This was available at a great price in the past -- until Amazon jacked up the price to hide the delivery costs. Yes, it's heavy but that's no reason to tell people they are getting free shipping when they are not! Today (6/22/14) I bought this 76 oz. size box in-store at Walmart for $3.97/box. That's $23.82 for 6 boxes. I hate Walmart but I'm starting to dislike Amazon more....

I'm with you. I was going to purchase from Amazon but, than I noticed they are WAY more expensive here?

Dear friend,Maybe the system went wrong at that moment. Of course, you can order 2 or 4 pounds, and the 2 pounds price is the price of one bag, 4 pounds price is the price of 2 bags, it shouldn't be $ 900. Please try again or contact customer service at Amazon.

I just noticed the price increase!! Last time I ordered the 24 pound bag, it was around $24. It is now over $40! Crazy! What happened??

Ah..now it is "down" to $27.99. Sorry. Not good enough. $23.40 is the price I'm looking for - and only if it adjusts back to that will I buy this food again. Even at that price it is very very expensive (although I do believe high quality) even compared to other high quality food. So nice try Amazon -- (or whoever is setting this price) -- but no cigar.

Hi Linda&gt; Amazon's free shipping threshold is now $35 on purchases...so you'd have to order 3 to get the free shipping.

That seems a bit expensive to me if I am reading this corectly. I bought mine for less than $50.00 for 12.8 grams. Whole Foods has a better deal than $165.99.

It is $39.99 today at Target (11/12/2013), plus $8.01 shipping; so the current Amazon price is only off by a little. The Target website really turned me off, so I am happy to purchase here on Amazon

Our costs are higher than you have found it. These prices mostly include shipping. Amazon also collects a 15% fee from the sellers of this item. I would say keep buying it where you are.

I can get it locally for $7/box, but $14/box on amazon (through CustomerFirst) is outrageous. I even checked, it's the same size box.

It's still $12.99 on Tim Hortons website. It's $10 shipping with one bag or three bags. Didn't try any more than that.

Because the "prime free shipping" cost has been added into the price. There is another seller who sells 2 x 13.5lbs bags for $15, but they then charge $20 for shipping, so it comes out about the same. Generally anytime you are buying something heavy you can get a better price at a big box store.
