I am getting ready to order a mass amount of Mountain House meals. Can anyone recommend someplace that I can get them at a discount? The Mountain House site doesn't seem to offer a discount for quantity.....
Check Sierra Trading Post. They tend to have deals like that.
Also, try to do some basic dehydrating. It's cheaper, just as easy.....and gives you lass gas.

"Cheap" or "discount" and "Mountain House" are not terms one usually sees in the same sentence.

Sierra didn't have anything. Campmor only has Backpacker's pantry. We have found Mountain House to be the tastiest. We will mix in less expensive noodle meals, etc.

If you are willing to repackage meals, go to Be Prepared (http://beprepared.com/Default.asp?bhcd2=1203525686).

Order their Marine Cuisine instead. Exactly the same product except for the printing on the package--which is labeled for the boating market instead of for landlubbers. They have been on special for quite some time, at a significant discount.
