Updated: Correctly Guess the Price of the Produce and Get a Patch Tote Bag
The first reader to correctly guess the price of the produce will get a Patch tote bag that is perfect for shopping.
Editor's Note: Congratulations to Nicky M., who correctly guessed the price of the produce at $10! I'll send her a Patch tote bag. That same produce would have cost me about $20 at a local grocery store.
Earlier this month, I bought my produce at —the weekly farmers market in Oceanside—and wondered how much the same products would cost me at a chain grocery store in town, so I went to find out.
I didn't notice an organic label at Sunset Market, so at the grocery store, I compared the same non-organic products and estimated that I would have paid twice as much.

The items I bought at Sunset Market:
- 3 Heads of purple kale
- 3 Tomatoes
- 3 Avocadoes
- 1 Bundle of asparagus
- 1 Basket of blueberries
- 1 Basket of jalapenos
How much do you think I paid at Sunset Market? (Hint: I made my purchase close to the 9 p.m. closing time.) I will send a Patch tote bag to the first reader who guesses correctly in the comments section.
