For about 30 years, we’ve been mixing up our own milk from milk powder. I buy it at $7.19 (currently) per 1kg. This mixes up to around 10 litres of milk. We have 2 x 2litre lidded jugs, and as we empty one, it is thoroughly washed and new milk made. We never run out and we save money too. We had a large family of 11 children, so swapped to milk powder, when we reached 12 old glass bottles a day, to save space in the fridge. We soon realised we were saving money. Although now, we are down to a small household of 3, the habit is so ingrained, we can’t ever envisage changing back.
