Grocery Stores in San Francisco, CA

If you have any Indian/Middle Eastern stores in a reasonable radius, they will always have the cheapest saffron (and saffron freezes well so you can buy in bulk and go infrequently).

I'd recommend these guys, [Diaspora](https://www.diasporaco.com/collections/spices/products/kashmiri-saffron?variant=37555005751467). They're more expensive, but hardly what I'd consider a luxury brand.

Find an amish farmer. In certain circles, they are notorious for growing the stuff. If that's not an option where you live, then try Frontier Co-op.

This is my local spice shop that also does mail order. [The Spice House](https://www.thespicehouse.com/) They have saffron as low as $15 a gram which IMO is very reasonable. No idea about shipping cost, as I just stop in and buy what I need. They also carry every other spice I've ever heard of. Quality is excellent and I've always gotten what I wanted with no fakes.

I know Costco has different sizes of saffron for a good price and decent quality. I don't know how much it cost to deliver in your area. https://www.costco.com/full-thread-spanish-saffron%2C-14-gram-jar.product.100389351.html

Atlantic Spice Company dot com is decent. I bought a couple of ribs of saffron that I thought represented good value. I got a pound of ground cumin from them recently that cost all of $6.30.

Do you have a Trader Joe's?

I have been very happy with the quality of what I have received from [RAM saffron](https://www.ramsaffron.com/). I have used it in Paella and Persian rice/polo many times. The first time I think I bought from them through eBay, but now I go direct through their website.

Do you have a Persian/Iranian market near you? They should have good quality at reasonable price.

In the states: Vanilla Saffron Imports. Saffron.com. By far some of the highest quality, cheaper saffron you can get. Their Vanilla beans are really good too.

My mother got me loads of it from Cyprus. Genuinely, if , post COVID, you know anyone travelling to the Mediterranean, that seems to be a great way to get loads, cheaply.

I get it inexpensively at webstaurantstore.com

any of the Asian ones- I bet 99 ranch would have it (http://www.99 ranch.com/) but it's a drive

Thanks everyone - turns out I didn't take any of these suggestions, but I will pocket them for another time. I went to a relatively new place called Spice Ace over in Lower Pac Heights. Really awesome store for those of you who like to cook. http://www.yelp.com/biz/spice-ace-san-francisco

SSH Robbie, details about the forthcoming Engadget Store are top secret!

Looks like you might be right, but you can check your specific area here: [http://www.celestialseasonings.com/store-locator](http://www.celestialseasonings.com/store-locator)

I toured the factory last year I think that's one of the ones they don't distribute anymore and mostly just sell at their store in Colorado.

They do sell it right on their website with the option of repeat purchases at a discounted price.
