Rant: I started buying meat at the Asian grocery on Saturday mornings and my food bill went from $140 to $85
I used to do all my shopping at the big chain store near my place in Santa Clarita and I was spending around $140 a week for two people, which felt crazy. A coworker mentioned she gets her pork and chicken at the Asian market off Soledad Canyon and I finally tried it about two months ago. The difference is nuts, I got 5 pounds of chicken thighs for $9 and a huge pork shoulder for $12. I go early Saturday around 8am when they mark stuff down and the selection is still good. I also grab produce there now, the bok choy and green onions last way longer than the ones from the chain store. My freezer is packed and I still came in under $90 last week. Has anyone else found a specific store or day that beats the regular grocery prices around here?

The 8am Saturday markdown is the real trick here. Nobody wants to wake up that early but that's when the good deals are still there.
