While going by a supermarket today I noticed they had some fantastic deals on chicken drumsticks as they were being sold for $1.48 a pound. Rightfully so, they did have a two bag limit as there will be people who would buy them all. But this got me thinking as at that price you would want to buy a bunch to save money. But at the same time most normal people are not going to eat all that so fast. Therefore, it would be a waste to buy too much.
With that, it seems like so many people forget that with items like these you could always put it in the freezer and defrost it in the future as an option. Granted fresh isn’t as good as frozen, but if it’s about making a good simple meal at home then you should take advantage of the savings. It’s better than buying money for some TV dinner as an example in my opinion as well.
You can even do this with fresh fruits as there are even stores that sell frozen packaged berries. You can do that too once the summer starts to end where you can have a huge storage of say frozen blue berries. This is like the stuff you hear as a kid such as people putting food in jars for the winter. Don’t overlook this method for the meats you buy.
