Yes!! I highly recommend buying almonds, really any nut, in bulk if your local grocery or health food store offers it. I purchased 1 pound (16oz) of almonds for $8.99 at u003ca href=u0022https://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/departments/bulku0022 target=u0022_blanku0022 rel=u0022noreferrer noopeneru0022u003eWhole Foodsu003c/au003e, which makes roughly 16oz of almond butter. The almond butter you can buy at the grocery store is usually 12oz for anywhere from $7.99 to $18.99. This means that your homemade almond butter costs ~$0.56/oz, whereas a store-bought almond butter costs ~0.74/oz.
