Kee-riste! I'd even shop at Albertso^WLucky's for those prices!
FoodMax (formerly Food4Less) has some great deals, too, but it's
very much Caveat Emptor on product/price. Some prices are cheaper
at Safeway of all places for the same or similar product! I don't
hit carnicerias often enough to "remember" them as an option,
either. The two Halal butchers near me are _expensive_ but one
offers exotic meats (antelope, ostrich) so I do stop by there
ocassionally. The Japanese market only offers processed chicken so
that's not a good price comparison. I refuse to hit Lion or Tin
Tin because traffic is so awful. <shrug>

If you have any suggestions for specific places that are selling
chicken for those prices, I'm always willing to drive to them.
