We stopped by Safeway this morning to pick up some lamb on our way home from church. I happened to go buy the bacon case on my way to get cheese. Holy moly, what is happening to the price of bacon? Oscar Meyer thick cut at $ 7.99 per pound? The Safeway house brand thick cut at $ 5.99 per pound. I am going to start keeping an eye out for coupons and stocking up the freezer when it goes on sale.
