My roommate pointed out I was buying the wrong kind of rice for a year

I'd been buying those small boxes of instant rice for about $2.50 each, thinking it was the cheap option. He showed me a 20-pound bag of long grain for $12 at the store, which works out to pennies per serving. Do you have a basic ingredient you were overpaying for without realizing?

Spices are a great example, but how do you even start figuring out the right place to buy them? I spent ages paying for those tiny glass jars at the regular grocery store. Did you find a good source, or did you just get lucky and stumble on a better option?
