Prices should attract

While I applaud the efforts of local farmers to sell their locally grown products in an 'Open Style' Market. I do have a problem being asked to pay $5 for a bag of potatoes which can be purchased for under $4 in a supermarket.

Dear Sir,

While I applaud the efforts of local farmers to sell their locally grown products in an 'Open Style' Market. I do have a problem being asked to pay $5 for a bag of potatoes which can be purchased for under $4 in a supermarket.

I am by no means suggesting that they under sell the supermarkets. However, prices should be able to attract customers not drive us away.
