And once you start down that path, you realize the whole "ethnic aisle" at the regular store is just paying double for the same stuff. I swapped my vanilla extract for the big bottle at the Asian market and my cinnamon from the Indian grocer, and I swear my baking tastes better now. The key is to check the labels too, sometimes the brands are exactly the same as the fancy ones just with a different sticker on them. Pretty soon you'll be buying spices in bulk bags and freezing the extras, that's when you really know you've gone down the rabbit hole.
