With good steak now costing more than $20 a pound, a grill out can bust the budget.

So we decided to try out some new dollar store steaks that cost just $1 each, to see if they are the real thing or a case of "don't waste your money."

Also the prices of chopped meat/ground beef-— or hamburger meat. Years ago it was quite cheap and these days way too overpriced. Same with hamburger patties— utterly ridiculous in prices these days.

Worn out dairy cow is what you get but it should be fine for stew meat and jerky.

Dollar Tree has some great deals. I’ll skip the dollar steak but they have some frozen items we like that cost twice as much - or more - in the grocery story (same brand names). I save a significant amount of money every time I shop there.

Something that is better suited for putting on the worn soles of your shoes.

They suck...period.

It may meet the legal (USDA) definition of "steak", but it's crap.

When we were kids, Mother would buy less expensive steaks and tenderize them.

After I got married we bought the better quality and I never went back. There is one thing which just this minute jogged my memory.

I actually liked the taste of the ones Mother made. I guess I could buy choice rib eyes and still put the tenderizer on them.

There is a reason that they say “tougher than a $2 steak”.

I sometimes check the local store. Many items are overpriced but most are about right at a dollar.

Every now and then I catch a real bargain. This calculator turned out to be of good quality with clear crisp display and excellent button feel.

I’m seeing that too.
It’s pretty often now that roasts, pork chops, ribs are cheaper per pound than hamburger these days.

Sounds like it’s priced about right and — you can pay up to $40 for chewy little steaks like it in some restaurants anyway so may as well pick it up at the dollar store ?

Thank God our Congress has forbidden Country Of Origin Labeling, so we needn’t worry our silly little heads by knowing we’re eating polluted Chinese cow!
