3 ways to save on delicious, high quality local foods in 2025

Whether you live with your partner, a large family or on your own, we bet food is a significant part of your monthly budget. There are ways to spend less money at the grocery store, but that often results in lower quality products in your fridge and freezer.
At VG Meats, we want to help community members access delicious, nutrient-rich, high quality food from local sources—and we’ve got several different ways to help you save money along the way. Read on for details, or contact us directly to learn more. We’d be glad to see you in Simcoe or Stoney Creek!
Meal plan around our in-store specials
Every two weeks, VG Meats shares an updated list of in-store specials (available on our website and sent directly to email subscribers). While these deals are always changing, they’re always awesome, too—check out our current list to see what’s on special now! By planning your weekly menu around these items, you can save money while trying a variety of amazing Ontario beef, poultry and pork products. Our in-store specials always include special prices on individual items as well as a BOGO (buy one, get one) option and a freezer bundle. If you have any questions, please call your local VG Meats, send us a DM on Facebook or Instagram, or speak to one of our team members in store!
Buy in bulk or bundle up
VG Meats offer bulk boxes of many popular products including ground beef, boneless skinless chicken breasts, breakfast sausage, sliced pork bacon, rib eye steaks, pork tenderloin loin chops and more. We also offer cost-saving bundles that offer a variety of delicious products at a significantly lower price point. If you’ve got freezer space, buying larger quantities less often is a great way to save money without sacrificing quality or taste.

The discount code we send out each week all depends on what currently supports our regenerative goals.
