I've actually been doing a little experimenting with this. I've been alternating shopping between a cheap supermarket and a farmer's co-op. I bought two beef filets from th4e co-op for under $3. Tasted. Wonderful. Men's Health has said one of the most beneficial foods you can eat is 7 ounces of lean beef.
I bought some beef from the supermarket with the goal to keep it under $3. It was fatty and tasted like shit. But I probably wouldn't have known that if I hadn't bought the co-op beef. It's the same with veggies, the co-op consistently costs less than the chains.
I think if a co-op is available, or even a decent farmer's market, you can buy there for less, and get better quality, healthier food.
