All you have to do is ask.

I never thought it was a problem.

The largest cuts of meat are less expensive than the smaller cuts. They have pork shoulder on sale for 1.99 lb. Maybe it's 8 lbs?
Are you saying that I can ask a butcher in Winn Dixie to cut one in half for me and just buy a half for a 1.99 a lb?
That sounds great to me but it also doesn't sound reasonable so it wouldn't occur to me to ask.

Then again, 6 guys ordering food and asking for separate checks up north wouldn't fly either.
