Sure one still needs to eat... but you do not need prime rib to survive... Ironically, a successful effort to drop some weight this year caused us to shop more carefully and buy less. Now it's also a question of being frugal and asking myself if I really need something I was about to buy on impulse. That spirit could catch on. There is actually a vicious spiral for grocery stores and a virtuous one for shoppers; shoppers focus more and more on what's on sale and skip the full price items, while the stores feel compelled to put almost everything on sale now and then because that's what gets shoppers' attention. I can see hard times for the beef industry since what was a $7 ribeye hit $10-11 this year and many folks stopped buying unless it was put on sale back to $6-7. I see more top steak and round steak cuts at my local Safeway than ever before too (though that's where I draw the line myself LOL).
