Sounds good.
If you really get into it buying your meat from a butcher can pay dividends because they often let you have the bones for free.

Sadly (despite have 2 amazing butchers near where I live), by the time I get home from work they're shut! One even only opens for 4 or so hours each day so there's no chance with that one. The only time I get to go to the butchers is when I'm on annual leave - I will ask if he has any scrap bones the next time I get some meat from him though.

Fingers crossed

When I lived in the country, there was a supermarket with a really good butcher section. They had two kinds of bones. There were bones for stock, which were really cheap and there were bones for dogs, which were free. The ones for dogs might have fallen on the floor, but they were still fresh.

Heck, the last time I saw a "Butcher" was the day before I left Oz to come here - sure they have people working in meat departments cutting up trucked in meat from some where - but no REAL butchers. Come to think of it - there aren't any real specialty shops at all, just chain supermarkets like walmart and wegmans ...
