Best Time for Deals on Meat

The best time to shop for meats is about 3 pm on Saturday afternoon, providing the store is closed on Sunday. Today, Saturday, for example I bought 3 roasting chickens at half price because the expiration date is Sunday.

Last week, I picked up two inside round steaks at half price which I use for stews, soups, etc. I also got a 1/2 lb. slab of salt pork at half price, which I cut into smaller portions for beans, soups, etc. I'm not a big meat eater, so this variety will keep me going for several months.

Tip: Best Time for Deals on Meat

Shop early in the morning for meat purchases. Some stores sell perfectly good meats for discounted prices early. I have purchased fresh packages of ground beef and steak for $1.50 per package. The early bird gets the worm.
