I like feeding the commercially available suet cakes since I have no
ability or desire to make my own. I try to buy enough locally in the
fall when I find a sale to last all winter. But, I don't always make it
through the winter and sometimes have to buy more. I've never found any
online to come close to matching the sale price. I understand that the
stores may be using them as loss-leaders so it doesn't surprise me that
I can't find them at ~$.50 a cake but I am surprised that I can't find
them online at less or equal to than the normal store price of ~$1.00
per cake.

It almost seems suet is like oil--something's keeping the price up other
than the market. Is there a suet cartel like OPEC? B-)
