    Brilliant - the Ballymena one will combine nicely with the O'Kane/Moy park chicken factory shop to fill my freezer :beer:

    You have gotta be joking...they are expensive.
    You would be far better going to the farm shop, off the Whiteside Road:

    Address: Glebe Road Randalstown, Antrim, County Antrim BT41 3DT
    Northern Ireland
    Tel: 028 9447 8662

    Well worth a visit......loads of local stuff.....meat is the best I have tasted. Reared by themselves.....

    If you are coming through Ballymena coming from town centre and out past Sainsburys keep going towards big 7 towers roundabout. On your left after passing Dunelm, Tesco etc is Moy Park chicken factory (massive cant miss it) - turn in here and factory shop is well signposted. It is very hit and miss - you either spend loads or come out empty handed!! - cash only and max spend £50 - but if you are there with friend/hubby etc you can both buy! Suppose it is to stop restaurant owners etc.
    Examples - Blue bags with chicken - sometimes two small ones or sometimes quarters for £2, The mini chicken fillets which are £4 in supermarket for £1.50. Quite often some sort of breaded product. I have also got really cheap turkey pieces - grand if sticking in a curry etc.
