I`m :mrgreen:with envy. 🙂 Your store has a bargin bin, but mine dosen`t. :-(:089:
When we got our weekly paper today, I noticed the local grocery store has sirloin pork chops on sale this week for $1.99 per pound; so I`ll be buying a couple packs and divide them up to put in the freezer.:grin:

Participantwow! I can’t believe that your store doesn’t have a mark-down bin. all of the stores around me mark down the meats that haven’t sold by their expiration date. I scoop ’em up and run home to the freezer and thaw at my leisure.

Sometimes when they do markdown a meat it is in the same area but you have to watch it is a sticker added for an additional markdown. It takes watching to see where they put them and when they mark them down. Wal Mart is good about marking theirs down.

Thanks Wilbe95 for the info. 🙂 There is a Walmart in another town that is about 25 miles from us. But, because of high gas prices, we don`t go very often. However, when we go again, I will check the meat out. Do you know if they have a bargin bin and where it would be located:?:
