Last week I had the chicken dinner AND a beer at the Riverhouse Grill in Big Sky, cost me $12.28. Best dinner deal in any ski town in America.

3 for $1.00 hotdogs in Missoula at Oles on S reserve. I ate a mountain of them growing up.

The wife and I happened to spend the night in Big Sky during the COVID outbreak. Found a pizza place that was open but had to eat outside in the cold.

Went to the local market to get a dozen eggs this morning. Didn't look at the price as they are from unhappy chickens and generally less than $4/dozen. $9.50 at the register - the owner was working and he said that price was his cost. I thought Trump said egg prices would come down on day 1...??!

Ate a lot of those myself after closing down the Rocking Horse, Carousel or Stockman's chasing college girls. mtmuley

We ran out of eggs from our egg lady last week. Went to the grocery store and saw the dozen large were $9.99 and sold out. Dozen XL 12.49. I gotta get into chicken ranching.

Very likely, its the only market in my small town and everything tends to be expensive, but usually eggs are at least reasonable. Maybe greedflation has infiltrated. He did say he had to reduce the price because they weren't selling.

$.50 tacos on Tuesdays at the 5 Spot bar in Absarokee.
I remember because they still got it.


When I was a kid, the Bearmouth Chalet west of Drummond used to have all you can eat crab, shrimp and ribs for $18
