Maybe not a good a sale as the $75 off prime ribeyes like last time, but $50 off per package is pretty great deal. Most locations seem to be $14.99/lbs and average pack Aveerage 18lbs

Aside from that, I've pretty much stopped buying beef until prices go down.
You're going to have to wait at least 3 years and 22 days for that.

Hopefully our country can survive that long with the lunatics running the show!

Just to add a little more color here. These are cryo-vac'd whole sides, uncut (these are not "steaks" until you slice them yourself). I did not see any pack at my warehouse for less than $300 before the discount.
Can confirm. These are like sides of beef. You would have to cut them yourself first or have a very large smoker. Cheapest I saw was $285, so not a great deal for boneless choice that is $9.99/lb in smaller sizes at other grocery stores near me.

During the previous $75 off sale, my costco raised the prices so the $75 off did nothing. After the sale they dropped the prices back down
I always thought this was illegal.

Pork roasts were $8 off each package. Better deal.

Why? Is JD Vance going to import more beef?

Once all the fake green movement initiatives are eliminated ("cow farts are bad"), the herd will get bigger and beef prices will drop well before 2028.
Likewise, once the Screwworm is taken care of, more imports will happen.
"The U.S. has imposed temporary bans or suspensions on live cattle imports from Mexico since May 2025 due to the resurgence of the devastating New World Screwworm, a parasitic fly whose larvae infest livestock flesh, threatening U.S. herds and potentially raising beef prices, with ongoing talks between U.S. and Mexican officials to resolve containment issues and potentially reopen the border, although the U.S. remains cautious about lifting restrictions until significant progress in controlling the pest is shown.

So, $11.30/lb for you, for USDA choice. It's probably possible to get a better sale price, on choice at least, *somewhere* in your region, but lately, it's not going to be easy. I grabbed a ten pound roast for $6.90/lb a few weeks ago (Christmas sale) and carved it up into steaks, vacuum sealed and tossed in the freezer, but that was a one-off, and we won't see that again until, if we're lucky, around Easter.
That is a great deal. The best that I know of here, at the moment is 12.99 a pound.

Guess you only get "half" the real news.
Time to change the channel and go outside.

CATTLE INVENTORY
All cattle and calves in the United States on July 1, 2025, totaled 94.2 million head, 1% below the 95.4 million head on July 1, 2023, USDA NASS reported on Friday. (USDA did not release a Cattle inventory report for July 1, 2024.)
1% decline does not = 100% price increase.
Prices are at record highs and ranchers get Welfare and Reward$.
ZERO reason to produce more and make LE$$
Trend has been this way in all the markets(not just meat).

DTN Livestock Analyst ShayLe Stewart agreed. "There's only one way to properly describe the cattle market in 2025 -- and that's by saying it was truly a record-breaking year in every sense of the word. Record-breaking prices across the entire marketplace -- futures contracts, feeder cattle prices, fed cattle prices, bred cow prices and cull cow prices, too." Profits have been record-breaking in some cases -

Got one at Costco and it's already sliced, bagged and in the freezer. Our Kroger in GA has prime rib bone in for $8.99/lb. Picked up one of those as well.

It is plain economics. Supply and demand. Obviously, there is a supply issue like the eggs before The only people that can fix that are ranchers to spawn more cattle and get regulations out of the picture to lower feed costs and gas prices. I think your political bias is clouding how economics works.

And maybe you missed this headline (Bloomberg; July 2025):
"Cattle herd hits record low, prolonging high beef prices for consumers
USDA reports lowest mid-year cattle count since 1973, indicating herd rebuilding hasn't begun. High beef prices likely to persist for years."
This didn't start in 2025. Who was president in 2022, 2023?

My Costco had them at $14.99/lb. There was one small one at ~17lbs. The rest were all 25lbs or more! So I bought the small one, and yes, it's not the best price for CHOICE ribeye. If I hunted & waited, I could probably find Choice ribeye cheaper.
But when hubby started slicing the meat up, he said 'wait a minute, this isn't ribeye! This is a cheaper cut of meat, sirloin!'. Sure enough, Google lens also ID'd it as sirloin! We couldn't see what the meat looked like inside the big cryo-vac slab, so the package was mis-marked & sold as ribeye when it was not. Frown

BTW, I don't know if it's local or nationwide, but my Costco extended the sale to 1/??/26. The freezer of huge >25# slabs was still there with a $50 off sign. Maybe the sale is until they sell off all the slabs.

Have you seen empty meat counters at the grocery store to account for the claim of record low cattle herd? Yeah, me neither. Instead, I see butcher counters stocked full. To claim a supply issue, you'd think you're eyes should see a supply issue at the store, otherwise it's just an industry making record profits from an issue of their own making.
