Default The Price of Meat

Rump steak today:

Woolworths have it for $12.98 Kg
Coles have it at $9.98 kg

I'm still happy getting it for $6.99 at my normal butchers

Patton's Butchers
Bayside Shopping Centre
200 Old Cleveland Road
Capalaba (opposite McDonalds)

If you liked the Sausages we had the other day, they were the Tomato & Onion flavour BBQ sausages at $2.99kg, but only $1.99 for bulk purchase

This butcher also sell some prize winnings sausages at $6.99 kg.

Those prices of the Cow & the Pig look like they were for the Whole animal, not cut up !! To be cooked in the Hungi style.
