They still have loss leaders, rib steak last week 6.99lb, brisket and pork belly this week at 2.99lb. The other stores all seemed to have dropped these great sales. So yes, you used to get great meat sales at Co op. As an aside, it really pays to shop around and have a well stocked pantry and freezer. It is amazing the deals that are out there if you can wait for sales.

When I saw the 6.99$/lb rib steak I thought great I’ll go stock up for the summer. 2 Safeway’s and an Iga(same sale) later and there was none to be had. Talked to the butcher at Iga and he said they couldn’t get any.
