Grapes Is it possible to get grapes in small packages, like half the size or less than the size they're usually sold in at the supermarket? I'm not talking about any kind of mix, just grapes all by themselves.

Most supermarkets have them loose... just break a cluster down to the size you want and pay by weight.

What BP said. Even if they're in prepackaged bags, you can still just take a bag full of the amount you want.

Check to see if they're priced by pound or by bag. If by pound, remove the amount you want and bag it. Not a supermarket faux pas by any stretch.

Cool! I had no idea it was OK to do that.

Sign that I need to go to bed: the first image that popped into my head was a package of small grapes, not a small package of normal-sized grapes. And I thought, seriously for a moment, "Oh wow, they've genetically engineered multiple sizes of grapes now? Guess I haven't been to the supermarket in a awhile . . ."
