Gluten and Corn Free Co-Op

I ran around today trying to find a specific brand of baking powder that contains no corn starch.  It is Hain Featherlweight.  Only to find out that the stores were out of it or didn't carry it.  I am really frustrated with stores not being stocked with the gluten free items that I need on a monthly basis.

That got me to thinking.  Why not start a co-op?  I will have to look into it more but I am sure this way I can get the baking supplies that I and other people need and a bigger discount.  Plus I can order things like pretzels and cookies in bulk and pass the savings on to everyone else.  And, unlike some co-ops which only deliver a few times a year, I would make it a monthly event. 

More thought and preparation must go into this.....
