“Walmart is cheap but I prefer to support the local grocery store...”

I really do love my Piggly Wiggly. Tuesdays is Senior Day. I consistently save $14-$16 on my trips to their store. Meat prices are high, but they are not shy about marking things down - usually 2-3$ off for chicken or chops.

Plus, the store Manager is my age, so there’s always excellent 70’s and 80’s rock on the Muzak. ;)

A couple of days ago, the meat dept guy gave me a dollar off Leg of Lamb. $5.99 instead of $6.99. They were all about 10 lbs so that’s a $10 savings. I think Cargill is a little loose with their definition of lamb though. That 10 lb leg is the size of my full grown meat goat bucks. AI says 5-8 lb for leg of lamb.

At $60, I better do really good with cooking it. What shall I do with that 2-3 lb bone?

What’s the official age of “senior” for discounts? Asking for a friend that has a birthday coming up in 6 days that ends with the number zero;)
