Sense to Save

Grocery meat counter

So I’ve always assumed that the butcher counter at the grocery store is more expensive. After all, you get exactly the amount of meat you want, give to you by a real person, right there.

Well, my grocery store has the meat considerably cheaper there! Usually $0.40/lb cheaper on ground beef, $2/lb cheaper for bacon. I love it!
