Safeway has New York’s and Ribeye in the value pack for 6.77 a pound. I love me some ribeyes.

Went into SW to grab one of the 3# double paks of 80/20 hamburger thinking that we probably won't see hamburger at $3/# again..... they were out..... but I did grab a raincheck for two double paks! Cool that it gives me 30 days to free up some space in the freezer.
Wish I would have done that for $0.99 pork butts at FM a couple of weeks ago...

In case anyone is looking for pork butts --- FM has them for $1.29/#.... not great, but not bad.
I should add too - BOGO for FF chicken too - whole turns out to be $1.05/# and legs and thighs are $1.40/# which seems to be the going sale price for legs and thighs now.

I was walking thru QFC browsing..... looking thru the meats..... and to my surprise --- unadvertised in store price for pork butt was $1/#...... left and went to another store, but I had to circle back and pick one up.... damn it. At least I've averaged down to $1.25/# for my two.

The bitch of it is --- I was chatting with a buddy last night - told him there is a spot on the smoker open if he wanted to grab a butt from FM..... he said 'yeah - I have to swing bye my kids apt right near FM so I will'.... So I knew if I bought a butt for him, he'd show up with one --- if I didn't, he would've blown it off.... I decided at that price I would grab one anyways and find some freezer space somewhere if needed.

I paid 5.05 gal today You assume way too much --- I just went across the street to the other stores and circled back into the QFC lot on the way back home..... My whole round trip was only 5 miles --- I was preventing making another dedicated trip just for the butt. And the other QFC is only 3 miles round trip if I had chosen to go that route.

Yeah, I always hit the QFC near me mid-week.
There are always unadvertised bargains on meat/pork/chicken…
My guess is they’re freeing up freezer/walk-in space for deliveries of the upcoming weekend sales.
Especially the one near me, as it’s kind of small.

Yeah - I'm a sucker for GO --- I always swing in if I'm driving by just in case they are blowing something out. They used to have alot more day specials, but not so much anymore.

I was really just commenting on the gas prices and going to a store twice before buying. Enjoy your butts.

If anyone is looking for chicken --- FM has split breasts right now for $1.29/# - pretty good price nowadays considering.... QFC also has BOGO on chicken --- wholes come out to $1.10/# but the parts are $1.40+ depending on what part.
