My aunt's $40 roast chicken rule saved my grocery budget

My aunt told me last year to stop buying chicken breasts and get a whole bird instead. Said I could stretch it into three meals if I was smart about it. I finally tried it in February, roasted it on Sunday, used the leftovers for tacos Monday, and made soup with the carcass Tuesday night. That one $7 chicken fed me for three days, plus I skipped the $12 box of salad greens she always warned me about. Anyone else got a cheap cut or whole animal trick that beats the fancy stuff?
