Cheers mate i'll have a read 

Local Bookers - £20 for 5kg - quality is fine IMO, not mindblowing, but far from crappy

Strike a deal with your local butcher, if you get friendly and are a regular customer you'll be surprised how much you save, plus the chicken from a butchers will usually be of a better standar. Myself I get 5kg of breast for £19 from my butcher, the same is supermarkets would average £30-35

Good idea, good for local businesses and all that, i'll give that a try.

No problem glad I could help.
Also Costco is a good place to try for meats and fish if you have/know somebody with an access card. Or I you live anywhere near Trafford park you could always go when I do

where i get mine too - the 2kg packs for £9.99 are slightly better quality IMO but both great price and product.

How's the quality Tony?  Is it much better than supermarket offerings?

A local butcher is always a good place to start as already said.

Sainsburys normally have bags of frozen chicken breasts (500g or 750g) at half price, £1.99 & £2.99 respectively.

I got some from bookers and would not buy it again,very chewy and lot fat had to cut off,I just go to local butchers and if offers buy them in morrisons,tesco's
nice getting cheap food,BUT decided rather pay bit more and have good chicken

Was in desperate need of some so bought 15 large breasts off a butcher in town for £25, £1.60 a breast? Not bad. Could be better, could be worse...

I went to the butchers yeasterday but he was close. He had a sign up saying "Offer 1.8kg chicken breast for £10" Not great but will go back tomorrow and see if he will do an offer on a larger amount

Put up with that price for a bit then after a few weeks ask if you buy 5 kilo will he do it for the same, if anyone lives near Bury/Bolton the fresh food markets there they regularly do 5kg for £19/22. And it's a lot better quality than your water pumped supermarket jelly ****e lol

I'm Off to Bolton markets today for my monthly stock up. 10kg of chicken breast £40, 4 gammon steaks £3.50, full salmons £10 I think. Can't beat the quality. Only problem is you stink of fish if you spend to much time in their lol.

I got mine last weekend same as you but didn't get the salmon this time as I still have some left over, got some rump steaks to. Your right though the quality is top notch, all the local farmers. Where about are you from Andy then? I live in kearsley down Stoneclough brew, you know it?

And your right about the fish lol, I tell the Missus it's the smell of quality produce at the bet prices.

only thing to be careful of the frozen ones is, on the back they may say 101% chicken breast etc, or you will even find they've been processed to a degree and had soy protein injected into them. not sure about those sainsb ones but thats why i tend to buy fresh, then freeze, more of a pain to do but ...

I'm from Adlington. About 5 mins from reebok stadium.

Managed to get a large amount of steak Canadian (around 12 large pieces) for £2.50. 8 gammon steaks for my dad £5. large bunches of bananas £1. 5kg chicken breast £20. All in all not a bad shopping trip.

If any one is thinking of going I would reccomend going ASAP in the morning as I went at 12 and got the last 5kg of chicken.

They were still offering 30 chicken breast in packs of 5 for £20 so still alot cheaper than butchers and supermarkets.

It is an awesome place, it's about 5-10 minutes from me maximum, just down st peters way. Your probably about 20 minutes from me I'd guess.

I'm going to get some more steaks this week, only got 2 left. 8oz ones. Minced beef is really cheap to, I think it's about 3kg for about £6 last I checked, really lean too
