Chuck steak, or gravy beef or whatever you want to call it is near enough to $10/kg here which is roughly $5/pound I guess. I don't recall seeing it much cheaper than that for years.

Ground beef, no matter what quality is never any cheaper than that. In fact, the only way to get it at a reasonable price is to buy in bulk which is fine for most people I suppose, but not so good for old people living alone.

Groceries in general are just expensive here though. I'm pretty sure we've covered this before.
