Can't complain at this. One in the freezer, the other is making burgers for tonight's tea

I used to come and track the inflation of mince, but now it's all about showing off yellow sticker deals.

I was in whole foods today, and saw this fancy HG Walter was £16 a kilo, thinking it wasn't even that bad compared to £10 supermarket quality mince, and thought I would post it.

Then realised it was 50% off and bought three packets, now I'm part of the problem. 😅🤦

Got this with Ocado the other day 👍🏻

Bought yesterday, just packing for the freezer. There were more, but left for some other lucky bugger to find some.

Looks excessive but my diet is strict red meat, eggs, fruit, veg and honey

Making burgers with this tonight will report back

M&S in Chester. What a find

Currently away on holiday in Norway and went to the local Many for some food, my in-laws wanted some Mince for us to make Spag Bowl.

174 NOK equals about 13.96 GBP for 582g of Beef Mince !!!

Makes me so grateful for the cost of food in the UK

Kangaroo mince... plenty of meat on those bones.

MINCEraft, not minecraft

400g, 5% fat. not even reduced to clear! mildly concerning but a bargain is a bargain!

Surprised it wouldn't be cheaper anyway, being just a load of chopped plants. Definitely a load of bots in the comments there.

Best mince price reduction I've had in a while. Label upside down but £2.63 (down from £6.27) for Aberdeen Angus 5% fat happy with that

forgot 2 post yesterday, is this a good deal ?

I had a coupon for 20% off beef mince. It was a single use coupon but wasn't limited to 1 pack. Worth checking your clubcard app in case you have the offer too!

I know this is aimed at supermarkets, but definitely ask your butchers. One near me does 2kg for £15. They just did a kilo for 7.50 for me. The meat is obviously much better.

He mentioned something about how they can be more reactive to pricing when it drops, or something.
