It's good to be friends with the butcher at the local market. I was picking up some stuff for the weekend and he told me he had some stuff in the back he saved for me. I bought a few packages of angus beef patties that were marked down to $3.99 for two 7oz patties. He had three pork butts at $0.99 a pound but I could only buy one . I bought a corned beef brisket that was less than half price. And I bought a package of boneless skinless chicken breasts at less than half price. I fixed one package of burgers tonight and froze the rest. I froze the brisket and the pork butt. I'm fixing chicken stir fry tomorrow. It is my wife's favorite meal and it is Mother's Day tomorrow.
It's sad that half price isn't a bargain anymore.
