I want to make a bean sensory box for Olive. It will probably require a lot of beans. Any ideas where I can buy them in bulk for cheap?

If you have a health food store near you? We have Sprouts, Mother's Market, and Whole Foods.

Not sure what type you're looking for, but here's a restaurant site I found that seems to have a variety of bulk dry beans to choose from. http://www.webstaurantstore.com/38111/dried-beans.html
ETA- The shipping on this one looks somewhat spendy, too (depending on where you are). If you have any friendly local restaurants you go to, maybe you can see if they'd be willing to sell you a bag from their bulk providers.

This site has a nice variety but shipping looks pretty expensive.. http://athenafoods.com/shopping/gourmet/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=114_109. You could also try an ethnic grocer, maybe they would have better prices?

How many beans? I see dried ones at every store, including ones like Kroger, Giant, Food Lion, etc.

Have you tried the nutbox in cobble hill on smith street? They have bulk beans and they're pretty cheap
