Lunch Meat

Lunch meat is really expensive.  You end up paying at least $8.00 a pound for it.  They don't even sell it by the pound anymore.  They list the price by the half pound instead so you don't get too scared when you buy it.  But I'm not fooled.

For the past six months or so I have been saving a lot of money on lunch meat by buying pork tenderloin on sale and cooking it myself.   The regular price is $8.00 a pound.  But I can find it for $4.00 a pound on sale.  When I do I buy as many as ten packages and wait for the next sale.
