Save on Meat

From About.com

I have a family of 4 with one income. I wait and buy meat when it's in the "reduced" section. Our store cuts meat prices drastically when the "sell by" date is that day or one day away. I have bought family size boneless chicken breast for less than half the sale price. The only difference in the meat I have and the meat others have is they bought it yesterday and I bought it today. The meat is still good. I have also bought hotdogs, ham and cold cuts for less than half price when they are getting near their "sell by" date. - Submitted by Trish
