I was at the grocery store in Springfield last month and saw the price of ground beef jump from $4.99 to $7.99 in one week.

Wait, was that for the same fat content? I've seen the price go up too, but usually the cheaper stuff sells out first. Sometimes the only thing left is the 90/10 lean, which is always way more expensive.

Check the dates on the meat packages at my store. I started buying the ones marked for sale that day and freezing them right away. It's not a huge fix, but it saved me a few bucks last week. @the_blair is right about that inflation flavor, it tastes like my wallet getting lighter. I've also switched to using more beans or lentils in some meals to stretch the beef further. It's just getting too crazy to rely on it for every dinner.
