trade free/traffik frees

I have been on a "Trade free" and "Traffik free" kick lately
(coffee, chocolate, rice, rugs, etc....)
In my 'kick' I have been searching high and low for Trade free coffee in grocery stores.
I am well aware that I can order it online and I have been - at $13 a pound!!!

I HAD to venture into Wal-Mart yesterday (I only do it when I literally don't know where else to get a particular product) and while I was there to get this 'product' I found
TRADE FREE COFFEE!!!!!!!!!!!!
$5.30/lb - Sam's Choice Brand

HAPPY HAPPY DAY!!!!!!!!!
(that was enough to make me think about going back to Wal-mart a little more often that once every 3 or 4 months - or maybe I'll just buy a ton of coffee while I'm there and freeze it!)

It's cool that as screwed up of an organization that Wal-mart is, they have caught at least this much!

We get that too! We also try to buy fair trade items as much as possible. As challenging as it is to shop there, especially with little ones in tow, it seems you just can't beat Wal Mart for some stuff.

we found our "fair trade" coffee at sam's club.

somewhere i have some websites that help you know which rugs to buy, etc. i'll try to find it and let you know (i didn't know you had to buy special rice though--where do you find that???)

Tell me more about "trade free" and "traffik free", I'm clueless, but don't want to remain so.
