Supply Chain Shortages and Inflation

[The Conservative]

Nah dude. Buy in bulk. Get a quarter beef, or a side. Stuff your freezer for the whole year.

Yeah, local market up here want $700 for ¼ of a cow. Not worth it.

Local place around here is boasting they have had the same price for the last 5 years $2 cheaper than the price shown above.

Local around here isn't like local near you. The average price for meat around here for local steak is $20-$30/lb, depending on the cut.

It's not common sense pricing.

They claim it's because it's grass-fed and humanity treated.

I call bullshit and they are now just being able to justify their prices by not having to raise their prices because of “meat shortages” elsewhere.

I said find a farmer. Not a market.

Do some googling for an outfit like this: https://daltonfarmsllc.com/index.html#/

$700 is about 3.50/lb. You’re getting a shit ton of meat for that.

Our local farmers sell straight to market. That is why there it a $2.00 difference in raw meat prices between the two.

Oh and $700 for ¼ a cow maybe 3.50 for your cow... That's not how it works here. That it $750 for at most 10 boxes for a season. A break down of specific cuts that wont go beyond $70 a box total. Most people spend $150 on a box and have it delivered three to four times a season.

We in Mass know how to fuck up a good thing.

I don’t even know what you’re talking about…. You bought a 1/4 cow, the butcher cuts it up and packages it, and that’s it. It’s like a dozen steaks, ribs, 30lb of ground beef, and all the extras.

I get 4-5 boxes of meat and it’s enough for 6 months (with 4 kids).

You need to find a farmer. FARMER.

Yeah, that's what you'd think isn't it? But the “farms” around here has the “Butcher Box” mentality.

Like I said, if they can, mass finds a way to fuck it up.

I agree, but my wife is worried about the education our son would get out there.

You and your wife are the best educators your son will ever have.

Personally I don't trust any government product right now, not Covid numbers, not inflation numbers, not what they are teaching kids.

Time4Learning.com and abcmouse are all you need. Take responsibility for their education.

Why do you think I'm fighting them tooth and nail?

Have been using them pre-pandemic. Still would rather have a more solid foundation.

That’s on you, as a parent. Fill in the gaps.
