You are right! Thank you!! Even with shipping (got my total 70lb order of seeds for $5 UPS shipping), I am getting a better deal than either Amazon or buying local fr many seeds. Safflower is currently on sale at $9.99 for a 10lb bag if you go to their current ad. I have been paying $1.60 a pound for a 5lb bag via Prime. Whole corn is pretty cheap, too, at $0.65lb.
Walmart or the local co-op run good deals on cracked corn in bulk but I have found that many times, you have to wait at least a month for the order. However, the cracked corn link you have is the better price.
