Default Wild Oats-St. Louis and Little Rock

Grass fed sirloin steaks for $4.99/#. I bought one that was 1-3/4" to
2" thick for under $8. Going to cook it over hickory wood. With
Whole Foods buying Wild Oats, we won't ever see such great prices on
those type of steaks.

With Whole Foods buying Wild Oats, you may not see many Wild Oats around
in the future. The business section of our newspaper had an article a
few weeks ago purporting that WF would close the majority of WO if the
merger went through.

$4.99 for grass fed sirloin "beyond the big box"? Where would you
suggest?

Look for a local meat market, they still exist in most areas,
particularly in "ethnic" neighborhoods. In my area or at least not too
far away I have several meat markets with excellent fresh, never frozen
meats.

Sounds like my locale.

The other type of place I've had good luck with is restaurant suppliers.
They vary from average to outstanding, but searching around I've
found a few with superior meats at great prices. They require a
resale license to purchase, but it's worth the trouble.

You find a local meat market anywhere with "$4.99 for grass fed
sirloin [steaks]."
