>>>LOL! You’re always thinking, aren’t you? (I’ll be checking the pork section myself...) <<<

One of my favorite pastimes... Amazing how it helps when you have thought something through and then when it happens, you automatically have a leg up on others.

Oh, it will take a bit of time for any price changes... Just keep watching.

It pays to watch those prices - and a hint - watch dating...

No, I don’t mean to see if it is out of date... Like I just picked up 15 pounds of that yummy thick sliced apple smoked bacon - Normally $4.89 a pound - since store had quite a few of them, and they only had a week left on dating, I got 1 1/2 pound packages for $2.00 each. Immediately froze most of them - stopping that date ticking... Wish they would have had more... I try to watch for large quantity stocking and short dating... The ingredients for bargain pricing, and source for much stocking up!

Normal price = $73.35 Paid $20.00 Saved $53.35

I like doing the same thing. It makes shopping into a sort of game, a challenge. I love finding and making the best of a good deal!

Awesome! And I think the stuff I find like this tastes all the better for it.
