I never buy meat at the grocery store, got a 1/2 beef and a whole hog at the butcher right now. Works out to be a lot cheaper and better in the long run if you got the cash up front

Wolf figure out what time they put out the marked down need to sale fast meat. Our local store tends to get it remarked or packaged and on the shelf about 9:30 or 10 am everyday. Mondays are the best as they cut extra for the weekend and you never know what you'll find.

Freezers are full of moose, deer, and walleye. Also have homegrown chicken and beef. Pigs won't be ready until spring. I'm going mule deer shopping Friday. Its not the cheapest option but it sure is fun.
