Remember that the sacks available now are not the vintage sacks. Those can sell for quite a bit, by themselves.
The new sacks are wonderful, too.

Around here, the store I find them in is SunMart. The mill is Cooper's Mill.

I wish the rice we buy would come in fabric. :-( We buy 150 - 200 lbs a year.

Just went to my nearby grocery store near amish country; the 25# bags were in paper. I used to use a lot of flour when I baked all our bread, but now it is just me, so only bake for gifts etc.

What store are these found at?

Again, I saw it at a local chain store: Winco. Mostly Idaho, but I'm thinking Wa and UT as well. Next time I go there I'll check the brand of flour, the mill probably sells elsewhere as well

I haven't seen flour sacks in years. What grocery store were you in? I would like to have some of them.

This is such a fun place to hang out. I learn all kinds of things!

Neet, maybe what's old is new again. It would take me a couple of years to use 25lbs of flour.

Reminds me of the old metal Premium soda cracker can that I still keep my crackers in. I don't think they have used these in many years and I wouldn't part with mine.
