3. Especially given the alternatives

For years I've been buying the 10 lbs frozen boneless skinless breasts at Costco. It used to be around $20, but it's been steadily increasing since Covid and now lives around $30.

I finally started doing some math. If I just go to Costco, spend $5, and carve it all up myself, it's now actual savings. 2-3 lbs of meat at $5 a pop is closer to that $20 I originally had been spending five or six years ago. And not just savings, I don't have to cook the shit.

Go to Costco on Sunday, that's my week sorted. I can make all kinds of meals with it and halve the cooking effort in the process.

From my cold dead hands, lawsuit people!
