My wife and I are considering buying a half a pig. The farm's website says we can expect to spend about $300 depending on how we want the pig processed. I'm wondering this:
**How big is the variation in price, typically?**
**What can one request to save some money and how significant are the savings?**
I'm looking for things that will have a high savings to extra-time-on-my-part-ratio. If something's not going to save a lot of money but makes a lot of work for me, I'm less interested than I am in the opposite situation.
