    Our local Wegmans usually has shoulders for .99 to 1.29 all winter. Once the nicer weather hits and people are buying them more they are 1.49-1.69, have never seen them over that though. If I'm smoking for a large group I'll usually go to restaurant depot, shoulders are pretty consistent at .99 there. It's not a huge savings but it's more of an excuse to go to the depot, that store rocks! Good thing I don't have a chest freezer or I'd spend a lot more whenever I went there.

    I picked up a 10.5# shoulder for .88/lb last week at my local super market. I ground it all up and vac-sealed 7# of ground pork.

    Made some apple mustard pork burgers today for dinner.

    I'm lucky enough to have two large chest freezers. At $1.00/# I would buy as much as I had room for and/ or they would sell me. Heck, at that price, it is cheaper than our standard dog food. Whatever we can't eat would go to the dogs. I would drive 1-2 hours for that price, no questions asked. FWIW, we're buy chicken quarters in bulk at $1.49 /# for the dogs and think we are doing well.

    I miss Kroger too. However, about 10 yrs ago we got a place called Karns. They are very good. We stock up on 40# boxes of chicken quarters @ $0.59/#. They also had some great lamb for great providing the week after the PA Farm Show.:drool:

    Round here they are now dabbling in making "super kroger" stores. They offer food obviously plus clothes and other home goods like a wally. Kroger is also now offering curbside pickup with online ordering, and starting next week.....even delivery! They are trying hard to take a bite outta wallys and Meijers marketshare by offering stuff nobody else does.

    These young kids nowadays no longer have to even leave mommy's basement to get food!
