[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 792071, member: 7509"] Another way to see things is to look at the prices in the meat cooler at your local supermarket. By providing your local home raised beef to your brother, family and neighbors at what is to you a good price ($1.50 in your example) you are also providing good beef to them at way below what they would be paying for beef at the local supermarket. You are giving THEM a "good deal". You both "WIN". Your reference point needs to be at the supermarket meat counter, not the cattle sales barn or futures. The supermarket is their alternative and compared to that your price is probably very attractive. I won't even get into the possible quality aspects of the comparison. jmho. Jim [/QUOTE]
