We don't buy individual steaks any more.
We buy a big piece of tenderloin and cut it into steaks. Much less expensive. Priced more per pound but we are not paying for bone or fat. We are eating less meat these days but much better cuts.
We do exactly the same with pork loins. Buy a big piece, cut it down to small loin roasts, chops, and very thin for schnitzels-breaded or lemon.
We only buy skinless chicken breasts or bbq chicken from Costco. Save up the bones, etc and make chicken soup.
Our idea of fast food is buying a bbq chicken at Costco and making a fresh salad to go with it. Other than that, we never bother with fast food or fast food joints.
We buy a lot of the basics at Costco...paper products, OTC and vitamins, personal items, grocery items etc. Always find a place to store them.
We do not eat out at home very much since we often travel months or more during the year. When we do it is typically food that we do not prepare at home such as Vietnamese.
Blueberries are coming in season here. We eat lots. We will buy in bulk and freeze anywhere from 10-15 lbs and have them for the next six months or so.
Prior to leaving on a two month trip we typically eat 'out of our fridge and freezer' the month prior to departure. Empty it out a little so that nothing is frozen for more than six months.
