**Pika** · 10-23-2011, 04:00 PM

In Iceland I pay £6 for 900g of chicken

**Hench** · 10-23-2011, 04:01 PM

£7 for a kilo of chicken and it's good quality. I probably spend 50-60 quid a week on food.

Well I suggest you google costco, its a wholesaler. 2.5kg chicken for £17 if I am right. 36 eggs for about £8

nice didnt no that! i love costco!

**Pika** · 10-23-2011, 05:45 PM

What are you for real man? £17 that much chicken

it's a legit shop tho? Not like a market place?

**Pika** · 10-23-2011, 05:54 PM

Is that boneless chicken tho? I get 900g of chicken from Iceland alone I spend about 60 every 2 weeks but ima get it up to 70 .... Need better food I mean here's what I'm trying to aim for

Meal 1 60g protein
Meal 2 60g
Meal 3 60g
Meal 4 60g

Right now it's

Meal 1 35g
Meal 2 30g
Meal 3. 60g
Meal 4. 60g

So I want to find a good store to do this ...... Only one I can see is sainbury but it's abit much tho

**essential** · 10-23-2011, 06:00 PM

Sainsburys, 24 free range eggs at £2 at the moment.
Chicken thighs and drumsticks 660 grams at £2 a pack so thats about £8 for 2.5kgs.
I dont buy chicken breast way over priced imo.
Altogether thats about £50 a week for me.

**Pika** · 10-23-2011, 06:06 PM

? Ya think? I don't know I mean it has more protein in it you not agree?

**suprfast** · 10-23-2011, 08:56 PM

Costco here in the US. Best part is, one of the largest chicken companies is right up the road from me.

Its boneless and skinless. If I was to shop at sainsbury's i'd be screwed.

But there is higher saturated fat in the thighs and drumstiks and your paying for bone weight aswell. I tried it you need to eat alot more thighs than breast for your macros. The higher fat also reduces the chickens flexibility.

I wouldn't personally. If your training from an athletic point of view think about absorption rates aswell.

**Shaw26** · 10-24-2011, 01:55 AM

Sainsburys for meat, Asda for their smart price cottage cheese and Costco for the eggs and tuna. to be honest it depends if I'm passing anywhere on the way home from work. I've found that we get ripped off in the UK, nothing is cheap!

**Pika** · 10-24-2011, 06:41 AM

Yh iknow bro I mean 55 to 60g of pro per meal is decent

You are right, but I tend toward the lower carb higher fat school of thought, and its tastier

ugh dont get me started

it amazes me how families on benefits can afford to order take out every night... where as on the other hand we have to shop smart just to be able to afford to eat healthily

**smaj210** · 10-24-2011, 07:32 AM

i get my meat from the local butchers.
chicken 5lb for 12 quid
steak mince 5% fat 5 lb for 12 quid

same with other meats like prok etc

for fruit and veg and eggs i go to aldi.
10 large eggs are 99p fruit and veg is about 59p

also aldi do 1k chicken breast for 4 quid i think, and there frozen angus beef mince is about 4 quid for a kilo and tastes ok
aldi cottage cheese 69p for 300g 45g protein

**squigader** · 10-24-2011, 03:31 PM

I travel a lot, and from my time in the UK:

Costco (yes it's in the UK). Buy a ton of meat, canned foods, veggies, milk, frozen everything
Tesco - everything else

That's all you need.
