Sticker Shock at Local Butcher

That sounds similar to Restaurant Depot we have here in Ga. Some of their stuff is cheaper, some not so much. Quality is excellent mostly.

Take a look at the store. I don't think you will be disappointed, put into data overload maybe, but not disappointed, . We don't think they are too bad, especially when you consider what you are buying. Compliable in price to Sam's or Costco, no membership fees, more item availability and I think better quality.
Definitely less expensive than supermarkets. The stores are pretty barebones and are self-serve; think Base Commissary. We see a lot of older folks and families along with resturant staff in the store when Dee and I go up to Columbia. And they are always busy!

Each store runs their own specials. Here is a link to your MB, Charleston and Columbia stores to get an idea of the cost and selection. T

Example of the MB Store costs this week (26 Apr)

1. 25# carrots: $11.89/case,
2. Jumbo chicken breasts (and they are JUMBO) 10# $1.79/lb;
3. Eye of Round 6.66# $3.29/lb;
4. Bone in Pork Butt 8.55# $1.35/lb

Costco or the weekly special at Kroger - (Smiths here) is the best price I can get. I started to buy what s on sale at Kroger when i can, and then costco is always avail for what i want when I want. Food is so expensive now, you gotta be smart.

Glad to be of help PPG1. Also, take a look at their spice aisle! For what you pay for a little jar of spices in the supermarkets you can buy a resturant kitchen size container (~12-20 oz depending upon the spice).
