Grocery query - cheap meat

[meamea]

Carousel in PCB is good. The meat and liquor are cheaper and they usually have good specials on wine.

I like Winn Dixie's meat. US Choice. If you go Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday you'll find better specials.

Carousel has great prices on wine, but I don't buy meat from them. I've only seen them selling USDA Select grade, same as Wal-Mart. Select will work for stew meat, but for steaks I'd buy Choice. Bruno's sells Certified Angus Beef which is a name brand choice grade- they have some great sales from time to time. (Yeah, I'm strange. I stop at grocery stores during my day to check out the meat department)

IBD, where on 15th is this grocery, and what is it's name?

I've been told that WaterColor Publix is the most profitable per sq ft of all Publix stores. I believe it, because it is half the size of most, and I regularly stand behind people in line whose total comes to over $500. Everything is more expensive in SoWal, however, I recently went to Kelly's Grocery in Freeport, and they had less selection and some of their prices were much more than Publix.

I tried Kelly's this weekend. Their meat is definitely cheaper than Publix by several dollars a pound.

Kelly's in Freeport is ALOT cheaper than Publix for meat

Suckers! Kelly's draws you in with cheap meat, but they hose you on the other stuff.

I found Kelly's meat, produce, and cheese prices to be significantly lower than Publix.
Alcohol was comparable or slightly higher than Publix.
Specialty/impulse buy items seemed higher.
I don't know how they compared on other items as I don't know those prices off the top of my head.
