My little Sav Mor Grocery in Calera has almost gone up two to three times the price per pound in less than a week. Almost $5.00 per pound on ground beef. $10.00 per pound on cheap bottom round roast that is usually around or less than $3.00 per lb. I get supply and demand and understand that the stores are having to pay a lot more for it, but at what point are customers not going to buy it? All this to say, how much does half of a processed cow cost, and where is the best place to purchase one around the Calera area.

Venison the other red meat. Steak, burger, sausage. We don’t need no stinking cows!

WDE explain this supply and demand business to me. Werent we just talking about farmers killing cows and dumping them a few days ago. Theres no short supply. This is manufactured.

I reckon if there aren't enough processors out there processing enough meat because of shut downs, they can somehow charge a crapload more per pound? That's why I want to buy one of, or at least half of a cow that they are killing and dumping.

Wake up cupcake.

What do you mean by that? Did you actually read my post?

I know ill kill a young heifer before i pay $6 lb for ground chuck

Yeah, thats why I say its manufactured, "the shutdowns caused it".

Gov is trying to fab up a potential food shortage to make people compliant...
Wouldnt be the first time

I agree 100% with you

Cupcake, you should have seen the snowball rolling towards you. Not like it was a secret, we are amidst a pandemic.

I heard that they are suppose to be opening some of the plants back up

WTF is wrong with you?

You havent been around here long, have you?

I reckon not.

Sam’s was $8.95lb yesterday for Prime filets.

Not seeing the high prices yet here.

Must be an error on their part or they over bought n liquidating ...i just got off the phone with a meat buyer and he said expect increases for the next 3 weeks...i was paying $9-10lb for filets year n half ago
