According to abc27 there will be chicken wings available on Super Bowl Sunday. However because of the shortage of supply the price has shot up to a record high of $2.11 per pound.
If you have decided that you want to make something else instead of or in addition to chicken wings then be sure to check out check out the links to five appetizers, five entrees & five desserts that you may want to give a try.
No matter what you decide to make remember you don't have to pay full price for your ingredients. When it comes to the meat, if you go semi-early in the day the odds are good that there will be some that has been marked down do to the sell by date. With these meats if it's close enough to when you are going to use them then just stick them in your fridge, otherwise your freezer.
Another way to save on your ingredients is to take a quick peak at your local store's circular, to see if anything you need is on sale at one of them. Plus remember for at least some things the store brand is just as good!
Another option is to use coupons. You can get great money saving coupons from newspapers or even print coupons. If you do decide to print coupons be sure to change the settings to black and white, that way you are spending less in ink!
