Kroger in my area has 3 pound rolls of 80/20 for $5.99. I'm not sure if it was that low even before the hoarding began. Time to stock up.
Odd how it’s so regional - we are back to normal here in KC. I paid the lowest for brisket that I have in quite awhile...just over $2.20 a pound. Pork is back to normal too...$1.08/lb for bone in butts. Cut steaks are up slightly from pre-rona, but not outside the “normal” range. I bought chuck roasts for $3.3x and ground it. This is all at Sam’s.
Costco near me (Independence, MO) has had jack and $h*t in their meat cases the last few times I've been in and has been higher priced than the local grocery stores... in fact, one of the cases was turned into a fruit and vegetable display because they've been so poorly stocked.
However, Price Chopper and Hy-Vee seem to be getting pretty close to normal on pricing and supply lately.
I'll try hitting up Costco again this weekend (need a restock on paper products and coffee anyways) and see what they have going on.
A lot of the local stores can't find employees right now because of the $600/wk plus up to unemployment.
I haven't been to Kroger this week but last week their prices were insane.
I have an Edward's Cash Saver just down the road from Kroger and their prices have never spiked like Kroger. Likewise the neighborhood meat shop hasn't bent us over.
Highly recommend you check out Sams, I go to the Independence or lately the Raymore locations. You can usually get a new member promo where the membership is free or almost after freebies.
How is the Raymore store? I've been going down to Belton for most of my shopping lately (personal disagreement with current Jackson County rules) but I haven't checked out the Sams.
Our Price Chopper stores have Pork shoulders for $.99/lb right now. If my new fridge would get delivered, I'd go buy a few more. Last week I was able to get the 80/20 logs of ground beef for $1.99/lb. Not sure my cost of foodsaver bags/time offsets the savings, but it feels like it does?
