I headed to my local Winco to pick up stuff for Christmas yesterday. We
are prime ribbing it this year. After getting brussels sprouts, green
beans, olives, etc., I went to the meat section. They are selling
standing rib roasts here for $2.98 a pound. Two per customer. I have
never considered buying two standing rib roasts before. But I bought
two. Two seven pound plus roasts for twenty two bucks and change apiece.
I froze one. I called all my friends; even those who don't shop at
Winco.
For those of you who do shop at Winco, you might check to see if there
is any price close to that in your area. On the other hand, maybe a
standing rib is cheap in other parts of the US. Dungeness crab was
inexpensive there as well. Only I get gout from shellfish which breaks
my heart.
