Default Re: Grocery Store "day old" Markdowns.... anyone else scour for them?

I once got loads and loads of shelled nuts (walnuts and pecans) for $0.50 a bag, normally $3-5 a bag. They were not old but rather the manufacturer had changed the packaging and the store was getting rid of the ones in the old packaging.

Just after Thanksgiving this year the store had leg of lamb marked down to $1.99/lb, normally $7/lb. I was torn on whether or not to buy it and ended up passing on it because I didn't know how to cook it.

Just the other day I passed on $0.99/lb ham. I was so bummed that I had to pass on it but the smallest size was 17 lbs and my freezer was already full with ham that I had bought before the holiday.
