For any Boston, MA area bakers - King Arthur Bread Flour on sale

Shaw's (Star Market) has King Arthur Bread Flour on sale for $3.00 for 5lb bag.  Usually costs ~$4.50 / bag.  Totally worth stocking up this week!

do you think buying KAF from supermarkets is the same as buying directly form KAF.com? I only ask as i am knew to this, someday I'd like to grinfd my own flour : ).

But for now I've ordered several (hard to find) items (SAF yeast, powedered milk...) directly from KAF though I didn't order flour. Looking for others thoughts on freshness...is there really a differance?

Thanks in advance, God Bless, cathy

I think it's got to be close to the same.  I'm sure the stuff found in Shaw's is a little older than the flour found at the KAF store in VT, but as for packaging, they look exactly the same.
