It is boxed with the packaged meat for us to distribute with most stores receiving 5-7 day a week deliveries.<BR/><BR/>Save-A-Lot is a good chain with the right idea. Low prices for a small spending customer. But you get what you pay for. Like you have stated, if you can find a clean, well maintained store, you lucky.SF of CMSFSMLGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15023778615435849762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762161034582025921.post-16026031002781920032009-03-15T16:26:00.000-05:002009-03-15T16:26:00.000-05:00Living,Notice I specified that I'm not giving a bl...Living,<BR/>Notice I specified that I'm not giving a blanket endorsement to ANY Save-A-Lot. Just the one in my neighborhood. Same for my local Devil's Playground.<BR/><BR/>My Save-A-Lot has a butcher or two. They hack up their own meat. Except for maybe that Canadian meat. I don't know how they receive it. If your Devil gets the meat already packaged, then The Devil is being ripped off, because that meat is injected with water of some type. At least at my local Playground.<BR/><BR/>There's another Save-A-Lot near me, and I won't buy meat there. The store looks dirty. And if the part of the store you SEE looks dirty, who knows what is going on back in the meat-packaging area!<BR/><BR/>Likewise, I won't buy meat at the local Country Mart, because one time I bought some bad cheese there. It was a fancy-schmancy kind of cheese for a Christmas basket for my grandma. The expiration date was almost a year past. That's not good, even for cheese, which is MEANT to age. And Granny wouldn't have been checking dates, thinking her sweet granddaughter was not in the act of poisoning her. I should have been suspicious when I took that cheese back for a refund, and they looked at me like I was crazy. I bet they just put it back in the deli area for somebody else to buy.<BR/><BR/>I also bought some expired mayonnaise at that Country Mart. They might as well name it Ye Olde Expired Food Shoppe. I don't go there any more.

Those expiration stickers are applied at the store when the product is placed on the shelf. But your telling me that Save-A-Lot carries better meat? I think your about the ONLY person who would think that!SF of CMSFSMLGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15023778615435849762noreply@blogger.com
