FYI...prime rib sale

[Boatdog]

I just dropped everything, grabbed the money out of the cookie jar, and headed to my local (Gresham) Winco, hoping to come back with a pickup load of juicy, tender prime rib roasts. :shocked: :smile: :smile:

But alas, it was still the same price as last week 3.88 /lb.

Bummer for us in Gresham. :depressed:

Thanks for the heads up, anyways!

Boatdog - yup! My wife just called me from there - same story. What's up with that? Winco must be having preferencial pricing for ceratin locations, huh? :grin: Oh, well, guess I'll have to settle for the ol' ground round for now.

The $1.98 must have been for that special "Mad Cow" brand. :grin:

Apparently, it was just for the meat dated "Sell by 12/30", they had a bunch left over at the Mac Winco.

Sorry if I got anyone too excited!!

Besides, with all the countries banning importation of our beef, we may be seeing REALLY cheap prices for the next few years.

Just got back from 2 trips to Winco. They're selling out their leftover holiday prime rib for $1.98 per pound!

Bought almost 40 lbs of it, cut up some into rib steak....mmmmmmm!!

Thanks for the headsup TR!! My wife's out shopping today...when I saw your post, I called her on her cell and politely requested that she not come home without at least 20 pounds!! :grin: We had some yesterday and a couple days before - cooked up in the rotisserie

Happy New Year!

Beef is cheap up North! You cant touch prime rib for less than $5 per pound down here! I was at Costco today: $4.99 for tri tip, $14.99 for filet. If the mad cow scares the filet down to $5 or $6 per pound, the BBQ is at my house for anyone willing to drive here!
