Ethics be damned

I have really been craving a steak for quite a while now, but good steaks are just too expensive and I do not like cheap cuts of beef. However I always go through them at the grocery store hoping to find a deal. Today I found one and what a deal. I’m still tryingto feel guilty about taking advantage of it but the gult just ain’t happening. I spend so much money in that store that I figure if they screw up and I can take advantage of it then it’s just a good customer reward (well that’s what I tell myself anyway - have to assuage that conscience don’t you know ;)). How did they screw up? Well NY Strip Loin Steaks are normally $19.90/kg or $8.90/lb ($16.04 and $7.17 USD). I found a package of 4 mislabeled as center cut pork loin and going for $9.90/kg or $4.41/lb ($7.98 and $3.55 USD). I snatched that package up immediately and did not say anything to the butcher about it. I figured if the cashier caught it fine , otherwise I’m eating steak tonight and eat it I did! :-) (along with butternut squash with nutmeg, snow peas, sweet potato/gala apple mixture and 4 peppercorn sauce) Yum!
