It's a common myth that rotisserie chickens are cheaper than frozen. If you do the math you'll find that rotisserie chickens are slightly more expensive.

> Rotisserie, Under 2lb, Norwest cost is $5.73/lb on average
- Avshalom 8y agoI think they meant that costco sells a 3lb rotisserie at 5 dollars while most stores sell a 2lb at $5. Which mean Costco's Rotisserie is 50% or 67% (depending which way you want to calculate it) cheaper.
- ams6110 8y agoYeah but it's a cooked, ready to serve chicken. If you had to prepare it at home that's several hours of your time, energy for your oven, etc. and oven baked will not get the same result as rotisserie.
