    I bought a pork loin this week.  Like you I cut it into smaller joints before freezing.  I also bought a chicken and cut it in half before freezing.  Half is plenty for 2 meals for 2 of us and a sandwich each.

    Good afternoon, 
    Heads up... Sainsbury's are selling their medium chickens for £2.67 with a Nectar card. 50% discount. 
    It's £2.67 per kilo not per chicken; so not quite as good as the headline figure of £2.67!
    My receipt shows £2.67 per chicken. 
    3 x chickens @ £5.35 = £16.05
    £16.05-£8.04=£8.01
    £8.04 / 3 = £2.67


    Thanks fur the heads up with the pork loin. I didn't spot it. I want to gave another go at making sausages. Anyone know a good tried and tested recipe?
