Aunt Bee has been on a cost-cutting binge of late including buying Opie some cheap shoes that are too large and sugar in bulk, all to save a few dollars. When she hears that the new butcher shop in town is selling beef at a saving of 10 cents a pound, she's immediately interested. The only catch is that, to get the discount, she has to buy a whole side of beef - 150 lbs. or so. That's fine with Bee since she has a freezer - mind you she hasn't used it for years and, when it breaks down, she refuses to call the repairman from Mount Pilot because of the cost. She's left with the embarrassing choice of going back to her old butcher, Mr. Foley, for help. That also leaves Andy with only one choice.
