Well, they are two different stores then, with amazingly similar prices
on prime beef.
Unfortunately both are several hundred miles away from me (now).

You should buy some of this beef. I've never seen it priced that low.
What little prime I've seen in the Syracuse/Utica, NY area has been
$18/lb and up, up, up.
