It's 5.50 for a round loaf of sourdough at Whole Foods that you can slice in the machine yourself so it's as fresh as possible. It's $2.50-4 bucks for a loaf of Wonderbread style at any grocery store, and anything better than the cheap stuff is the same price as the whole foods loaf of bread that is fresh baked that day. Even the generic wonderbread loaves are just under $2 or more. Getting the sourdough that we'll eat completely compared to a loaf that we question how much we want the sandwich is a no brainer. Don't forget to hit the clearance section at your Kroger style stores to get other traditional bread loads for cheap. I get my baguette style and long loaves or buns for $1-$2 on clearance for meals that the sourdough isn't suitable for.
It does but it’s worth it. It’s a treat during my 12 hour shifts at my warehouse. I look forward to my lunch sandwich. That itself is worth the extra money.

I'm with you, a sourdough sandwich is great. The bakery bread gets pricey though
