chicken breasts? I want to stock up. And thats the cheapest I have seen.

Thanks!

Albertsons if you live in So Cal and it's a sale on friday from 1:00 - 9:00

Took off ticker, because it's too depressing.
I will keep you posted when I can start making a dent. Right now, just trying to stay afloat!

It depends on what the prices are in your area. If that is the cheapest price you have found then that is likely a good price for your area..

And just to compare, I pay about $2.30 a pound for frozen at the cheapest prices.

Hi Babs,

It is usually 1.99 here, so when I saw this 5 hour sale at Albertsons and just defrosted my last two pieces, I thought.. okay, I stock up now! See.... I am learning from you guys!

Yep, it really does depend on your area. Here $1.99 is a good sale price for chicken breasts (and when we stock up). Normally they're over $2.40/lb. at the discount grocery here, and that's the cheapest non-sale price.

If I found them at that price I'd fill the shopping cart with them.

$2.00/lb is a "sale" price here, usually $2.40/2.50 a pound.

I had to share...the paper came in today and Winn-Dixie has the chicken breasts at $1.99. I will be getting a pack!

COME ON EVERYBODY! GET READY! HURRY UP!

Road trip to get the best deal on chicken breasts I've seen in AGES!

"On sale" here is $2.10 per pound for boneless skinless...so yes, that is a great price, imho.

Matthew 6:25-34 Do Not Worry

25"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? 26Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?

I live in NM and good sale is $1.39 a pound and every three week or so sale is $1.59 a pound. This week is $1.59 a pound. Also sometimes my local grocery story Smith's (Krogers) sends out coupons to their reward card holders for $1.50 off a $5.00 purchase of chicken. So I try to stock up then. It seems that in reading this forum we haven't been hit as high as everyone else for food. Like milk on sale this week is $2.39 a gallon and last week was $2.29 on sale. It is an increase of $1.50 a gallon we paid last year but not as high as everywhere else.
