> I buy ham all year ‘round.
The holidays are a great time to pick up food on sale and put it in the fridge/freezer. For instance, St. Patricks day has corn beef far cheaper than at other times of the year. The stores are running good prices on turkeys and hams this week. Christmas (in my area at least) has a good selection of rib roasts on sale. etc.

I saw canned vegetables at a local WM for 25 cents a can last year, at Thanksgiving time.
I don’t know if they’ll do it this year or not. All the other WM stores were 50 cents a can.
This is a reasonably-new store so perhaps they were doing that to gin up business. It was good for prepping. A few cans of veggies make cheap dog food (carrots, peas and green beans). Can mix those in an extend your dog food with something Spot can safely eat.
Oh, you betcha! I don’t have to buy much meat because Beau is such an awesome hunter, but I am, ‘Queen of the Loss Leaders’ when it comes to stocking up on the cheap! :)
