Cheap color film is finally here!

[GCShootsFilm]

Anyone local to MI, OH, KY, IL, WI, IN - if you have a Meijer store nearby, they have Fuji Superia 400 and Fuji 200 in the stores. $21.99 and $18.99 respectively for 3 pack/36 exp. now if I can just find Kodak gold somewhere....

I have a feeling that no matter what the 200 film is inside the canister - Fuji or Kodak - Fuji just decided to name them the same so that they can provide either to whatever market they ship them to.

Excellent heads up - and much cheaper than B&H etc. And in stock.

I thought I'd add to this thread since Target has some Fujifilm 200 for $8.99 a roll right now, not the cheapest it has been but cheaper than many places. Cart limit is 5. I ordered some that arrived today and it's the "Made in USA" variation if that matters to you!

Meijer has raised their prices about a month ago, now $22 for 3 roll pack of Fuji 200. The 400 has been out of stock since prices were raised. If they ever get it back in stock it is now $25/ 3 roll.

so 12 rolls for a Meijer.
(Meijer means 100 in old street Dutch/Amsterdam/Jewish street language. I also is quite a common Dutch family name, means something like landlord/mayor )

The Meijer family that started the chain of stores is from Grand Rapids Michigan, which is very Dutch. Nearby Holland Michigan is noted for their tulip festival.

If they ever have it again, I check 5 stores on a regular basis and none have had 400 since early March, or before. I wasn't checking as often until they raised the prices, which was dumb!

It was one of those "oh, cool, meijer is the go to spot and will always have at this price!" so wrong

Wow now I feel kind of bad for paying $32 for that stuff at CVS like 8 months ago. If only it was as cheap and easy as BW to develop too

Actually, their headquarters are based in Grand Rapids, Michigan. They actually started out in Greenville, Michigan. Their second store was in Cedar Springs, Michigan. I'm local tot he area and old enough to remember

As a side note: Sam Walton of Walmart fame stated that he would not open a store in Hendrik Meijer's home town while he was alive. He (Walmart) held true to that.

Both chains are a customer of my employer.

Midwest Photo is currently selling Superia 400 3-packs for $19.99, too.
