I wish I could find prices like that here in Saskatchewan. The best I do is about 1.89 for butts.

Yep, $1.90 a pound around here. At $1.09 I'd fill the chest freezer or at least half way.

Yuan Ming is a Chinese supermarket that took over a Canadian Tire location that moved... It's pretty big. They always have some pork on sale... once upon a time they had bone-in pork shoulder roasts at 0.59cents/lb.

We'll see what the quality is like. Sometimes the meat is pretty fatty and looks like it was cut up by someone wearing a blindfold.

I have an Asian market here that has a sale on butts once a month at 99 cents a pound, but they have a "1 per family rule" to keep out the small restaurant buyers. NUTTS! :D

Yuan Ming will probably have a sign up like that too. I'll find out today.

Well, no limit sign at least. I got there about 1pm and the bin was empty. A fellow came over and I pointed to the bin and he just shrugged and walked away. Yuan Ming is kind of like that. But I noticed a huge pile of butts ready to be cut, so I waited for about 10 minutes, and then went back and bought 4 of them.

About 5 lb each, bone-in, and they look very nice.

No butts

Did find some nice boneless pork sirloin steaks cut about an inch thick for 99 cents. Looks great. Bought about 10#. Will decide what to do with them later.

Wife was out yesterday at BJ's Wholesale Club and called me. She picked up 2 - 14 lb. butts for $1.20 a pound, that's the cheapest we've paid in a long time.
One of the butts is going to be Brown & Serve breakfast sausage this Thursday. Then comes the Kielbasa probably the following week.
