Today's Tightwad Tip

The other day I made a lap through Sam's Club. They have excellent rotisserie chickens, so I bought two - one for dinner and one on speculation! For once in my life, I pulled all the chicken off the bones when it was cool enough to handle and not after procrastinating for 3 days while it languished in the fridge. I highly recommend this - it was way easier. I put the chicken into 2 zip lock bags and then for curiosity's sake, weighed them. I had just under two pounds of cooked, ready-to-use chicken, for about $2.50/pound. It's now in the freezer, waiting for creativity to strike. Considering that I didn't have to cook it, plus it's a mixture of white and dark meat, I thought it was a bargain.
