Head south to a Costco. Rotisserie chickens are $4.99 each.

I know. That is why I said head south. Assuming OP would buy other stuff beside rotisserie chicken a small road-trip might be worth it financially.

To be fair “head south” to most Mainers means, like, York County. It’s practically Massachusetts.

I think it depends on the context. If OP said “ I’m heading south to get Costco rotisserie chicken,” I would know OP is traveling out of state. Most people don’t say “I’m heading south,” with no context.

I have lived in Mass and currently live in York County. It's not the same.

Haha, genuinely curious, what’re the bullet-pointed differences?

I only said it (genuinely as a joke) because I consider myself a “Mainer,” born in Portland grew up Cumberland County, spent 4 years at college in NH but moved right back and lived here ever since, 40+ years in Maine. But when I was partying with some friends’ friends in the County couple years back they said “Anything south of Bangor is just North Mass, you ain’t a Mainah fah shit…” made me laugh.
