  • interesting no one mentioned Fed Govt Stimulus.  QE from 2008 to 2014 ... inexplicably to economists ... did not generate inflation.  2000, 2021, 2022 COVID Stimulus  https://www.usaspending.gov/disaster/covid-19?publicLaw=all  $3.6trillion.  Economists expected this. 

    That money is going somewhere, to rent, to healthcare, to bills, to Beef Prices Near You.

    I think supply chain issues, minimum wage increases, and everyone and their brother being able to use those as excuses to raise prices is causing this issue more than stimulus payments.

    I think the money is going to lots of private pockets like it always does.

  • Still pricy for a lot of that.  I couldn't see spending over $200 for a whole ribeye roast.

    Chicken thighs are good. I like when they have the boneless ones.

  • I thought $10.99/lb was such a great deal for the Rib Roast, as the last time I was there I think it was $14.  I had forgotten that 18 months ago it was $7.99/lb!  Butt was up about .40¢ and GB about .10¢ from there low's!

    Are you taking the pickup truck down to load up ?  :D

  • Awhile back I bought USDA boneless 2 1/2" NY steaks for $4.97/ lb., am fixing two of them for supper tonight. They are already seasoned, so the game plan is to SV, sear, and serve with sauteed mushrooms, green salad, mashed potatoes and a broccoli/cauliflower casserole.

    All of my freezers are full.  I need to quit buying things on sale and start using what I already have.  Probably don't have to buy meat until late into the Fall or early Winter.

    Prime House Direct I think is the one set up around me this weekend. 20 ribeyes $39.99.

    Have you ever seen what they look like ?
    I've seen tents set up, but I'm skeptical at those prices.
    I would guess you can see either daylight through them, or you have to sign an annual contract to have them delivered monthly at regular price.

  • In looking at their website, One important measurement metric is missing from all of the listed items (that I looked at) - the weight of what is being purchased.

    So, you could purchase their: 
    The T Bone Box for $239.99

    And end up with anything from a box of yummy steaks, or a 1/2" by 1/2" by 1/2" piece of gristle.
