Meats - What is the best price?

Getting the deals for meats really adds up on the grocery budget. Also don't forget you don't also have to use the suggested amount in a recipe either.

Here are my buy now prices for meat. You can find lower prices sometimes but you shouldn't have to pay more than these prices at any of the major grocery stores. You just have to remember to look for the sales (every six weeks or so).

  • Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast, $1.99/lb.
  • Chicken Breast Bone-in, $0.98/lb.
  • 80/20 Ground Beef, $1.99/lb
  • Whole Chicken, $0.79/lb.
  • Ribeye Steak, $5.99/lb.
  • Beef Roast, $2.49/lb.
  • Boneless Pork Loin, $1.99/lb.
  • Pork Chops, $1.99/lb.
  • Salmon, $6.98/lb
Also don't forget to look for meat on markdown. I buy the meat in bulk when it is on sale and then freeze it.

I also used to buy more Chicken Breast but now I buy the Chicken Breast with the bone-in. It has lots of good flavor and is a lot cheaper too.
