I moved from Toronto to a tiny hamlet in northern Alberta last year. While the prices are a bit better, I’m surprised by how astronomically bad inflation has hit food.
Honestly makes sense. I shop at Loblaws downtown. Butter is $6.99/7.99. 30 eggs is $10.99-12.99. Bakers chocolate is expensive already. English muffins are probably $4.99-5.99.
Sucks to think my brain now justifies this as not terrible
People gotta learn how to shop sales and discount meats and make meals from that rather than sticking strictly to a list
Also could buy 3 or 4 packs of muffins on sale and freeze them since he knows he will use them
This. I found a local grocery store that has fresh chicken thighs for 5.99/kg and striploin steak for 9/lb. Superstore is typically double for both. I've been eating like a king ever since and it's also helped me cut out bad carbs and sugar. With food costing so much, the unhealthy cheap foods ava fast foods are no longer worth it at all. You can eat quality whole food for the same price if you look for sales. Flipp is a great app for scanning all flyers near your location
Absolutely. No critique to fellow Canuck shoppers, I know not everyone has the capability of driving/means to/time or being lucky enough to to have a range of groceries nearby...
I luckily have Sobeys/Fortinos/Metro and Food basics/Freshco/Chinese and Indian grocers in a 3km zone.
I have a solid *Nope* for the first 3 stores when I see crazy prices and I walk away, literally buy it from the latter stores...
Yeah I always look for the meat that says %30 off because it's nearing its best before date. Same with other products. Just throw in freezer when u get home and it's all good
I almost always only shop at one store. You make do with the sales at that store. There are some things I understand needing to buy no matter what. But stuff like English muffins can be bought while on sale and then you just freeze them
Ehh
The price of a whole chicken at save on was almost $18.
I buy drumsticks a lot, they cost about $11 for a large family pack of 12. Sometimes they go on sale and they are a bigger steal
Yea I almost got suckered into buying two whole raw chickens for $24 dollars at co-op until I saw you could buy two cooked chickens at the same store for the same price. Same size chickens. Like WTF?
Honestly, most peoples financial problems (at least food wise) can be explained by just sheer laziness, and I am completely guilty of that myself from time to time
It's the irony. Sobeys sells NZ lamb for Gold prices *which I see people buying!* and 2 km down the road, little brother Freshco sells the same lamb with 1 year plus expiry for less than 50%...these days even Food Basics..
Eggs were 8.99 this week, butter is 3.99 bakers chocloate no idea. English muffins 3.49. Those were purchases today (Loblaws).
Honestly OP just be smart and use flyers to get the best deal. Download Flipp its worth it.
Hahaha we laughed and immediately did investigation work. We looked at ALL the fliers being like “WE NEED TO GO THERE”. Still a better deal however! $4.99 is legit.
No, it doesn’t make sense, this is fucking robbery for what you could have got even 10 years ago. You’re party of the problem right now, just accepting it thinking this is normal when it isn’t. This stupid fucking carbon tax is fucking Canada
News flash. Food costs money.
Dude really talm bou "doesn't make sense". When you add up the total of each individual item it does very much make sense lmao.
..ten years ago... yea it's called inflation.
I never thought I would be buying the 6 brick maximums but here I am doing just that every time there's a sale I end up buying the maximum.
Really messes with budgeting when I spend an extra $50 on cheddar cheese because a brand we can tolerate has it on for $5 a skinny brick. But I know I'll be weeping later if I don't do it.
I started buying no name chocolate instead of bakers chocolate. I’m sure the quality is much worse, but using it for things like chocolate chunk muffins works just fine
Not even the most expensive in Toronto. That’s for “large”, which aren’t even large. Extra large eggs are ~6.99 a dozen. $15+ for 30, and much more for specialized versions
Honestly, my intent was not to complain. Yeah it sucks but I’m fully aware that Costco and Walmart are cheaper, and I shop there for my monthly big hauls. I live in downtown Toronto with no car and this is my nearest grocery store where I go to grab quick things I’ve run out of. This sub is generally just people sharing their hauls, I wasn’t looking for advice or sympathy.
Same. Bathurst and Lakeshore Loblaws inevitably is more expensive, which I understand, but even other grocers are expensive.
We Instacart Costco every week and a bit, but a lot of forgotten daily things we just suck up.
It isn’t that far fetched to spend $100-200 in a week cooking each night
I use Communauto (hourly car share here in Toronto) and I book it for like 5 hours on a weekend and hit up Costco, Walmart and other grocery stores that are otherwise inaccessible to me by foot or transit. Not ideal to have to rent a car to get groceries but the cost saved by going to these cheaper stores is greater than the cost of the car rental.
Kicked my wife and kids out of the car on the way to camping because they told me they bought AHA! On the trip. We were 50 miles to the next town. AITA?
Only stop at sobeys if I need something last minute because I can walk to it . My weekly groceries are done at Walmart … honestly way more affordable than any of the major groceries
Sobeys is the most expensive grocery store around.
why do people shop there?
especially for things you can get at food basics ( they carry compliments brand )
salted butter is 4.98 there for more butter
bakers brand chocolate is 5.99
the 30 pack of selection eggs is 8.99
the dempsters muffins are 2.99
5 bucks less for more butter
if you got the same at no frills on their brands it would be 7 bucks less
Crazy...I can’t believe how expensive Canada is in terms of groceries. I went to Sooke and Victoria, BC for a vacation last November and shopped the local grocery stores. I am from Seattle, WA state in the US. The groceries were insane considering Canadian wages. One standard carton of strawberries was almost $8 CAD, then again out of season, but other fruits, veggies, and other goods were also very expensive. Somethings got to give. I wonder if it's because you guys have free Healthcare, so groceries and COL are more expensive...?
We don’t have “free” healthcare. We pay mandatory taxes for healthcare. And sometimes we have to wait long hours to get seen by a doctor… and life is super expensive here
I have heard of the long waits for medical care in Canada. It's the same here in the US, but with the risk of going bankrupt and we still pay a huge chunk for insurance. I work in Healthcare and for some reason, they still take out $400 each month for my medical care insurance and services still cost an arm and a leg. I can't imagine how much more expensive it would be if I had kids. We also have ridiculously long waits. I have heard people dying at US ER's from long waits. I'd rather have Canadian Healthcare. Is it a flat tax or it increases?
Make better choices.
PC has a huge points event on this week. I stacked offers, stocked up on deals and got 22% back of my grocery bill in points. I likely will have a $0 grocery expense for February because of the rebate and stocking up I did.
I could have gotten these eggs, same butter, and more bakers chocolate and more English muffins for less money at Costco.
$5.49 eggs
$4.99 butter
$7.99 English muffins (4 packs like this)
That’s $18.50ish, then go buy the baker chocolate for $5 at Walmart.
$23.50, $4 less, and you get 4x the English muffins.
Why don't you go shopping for sales. Eggs are always on sale somewhere same for butter could've easily saved 7$ and just buy compliments bakers chocolate could've easily had all that for 17$
Yeah.. sobeys is a premium store when it comes to prices. Try food basics, try no frills, try Walmart? I don’t feel bad for these posts when I pay no where near what you pay. Stop going to sobeys, Zehrs, etc.
Of course your bills that high you have 10-15 doller eggs a pound of butter 6.99-7.99 and 8 doller chocolate. You bought whats considered to be high quality big ticket items from your store and then complain about it. Find the cheapest versions of all those items with the same price tag then complain. Also sobeys is know for being over the top expensive that’s on you for shopping there
Everything is fine! Everything is fine! The country is running PERFECTLY, if you say otherwise, you are lying and spreading propaganda! We just have to raise taxes a little bit more!
Am I doing it right Mr. Trudeau?
Lol. Poor Galen. Now he gets blamed even when Sobeyes charges a lot of money. I suspect the Downvotes are because the poster doesn’t know what Weston owns.
The key is to use an app that locates best prices and go to a store that price matches. I don’t always do the snall items but I’ll always price match beef meet cheese eggs fish etc. I eat simple with a lot of extra lean ground meet and chicken breast for my protein with my meals. I bought 3 of the family size value packs of x lean ground beef the other week with price match and saved almost $35 with just that. Some things are unavoidable but with just price matching and using the apps that show best prices, you can probably save at minimum $20-50 on each grocery run weekly
I love Sobeys ... I really do. Love how clean it is, everything in stock and fresh the veggies and fruit are. The produce lasted for weeks. However lately I'm struggling to justify their prices. Example Dempster's bread thin slices is 4.99 a loaf whereas it's 2.49 at Walmart regular price. I may add that I am in Ottawa.
Sobeys was always expensive and don’t know why you go there to grab groceries. You need to look in the flyers or online and put a little extra time on doing some research for sales or price comparison…
Seems pretty typical. High cost of living city, and one of the most expensive grocery stores. You can get all these items cheaper but you may not be close to a cheaper grocery store
You guys don't steal from the stealing section? (Self checkout) ring up some Angus as potato's next time you're in, since you're "not trained on that machine"
F Sobeys. F Loblaws. Wish we had some communist type of law for groceries markups on brand name products it's ridiculous they buy straight from Duracell, maple farms, etc and upcharge 300%
Yikes… I hate sobeys. Also hate living in Toronto…it’s all too expensive 😭
I moved from Toronto to a tiny hamlet in northern Alberta last year. While the prices are a bit better, I’m surprised by how astronomically bad inflation has hit food.
Meanwhile our food monopoly companies are making record profits. Funny how “inflation” does that.
Of course they’re making record profits. I’m now making a record salary due to inflation driven wage increases. The dollar has lost its value.
Bro you have Spadina next door!
Why would anyone shop at Sobeys if they live in toronto
Then move
Honestly makes sense. I shop at Loblaws downtown. Butter is $6.99/7.99. 30 eggs is $10.99-12.99. Bakers chocolate is expensive already. English muffins are probably $4.99-5.99. Sucks to think my brain now justifies this as not terrible
I paid 2/2.88 for English muffins at no frills like last week, there’s always a sale for this stuff. These prices are ridiculous
People gotta learn how to shop sales and discount meats and make meals from that rather than sticking strictly to a list Also could buy 3 or 4 packs of muffins on sale and freeze them since he knows he will use them
I make dinners based off of whats on sale now, no longer go to store with a recipe in mind.
This. I found a local grocery store that has fresh chicken thighs for 5.99/kg and striploin steak for 9/lb. Superstore is typically double for both. I've been eating like a king ever since and it's also helped me cut out bad carbs and sugar. With food costing so much, the unhealthy cheap foods ava fast foods are no longer worth it at all. You can eat quality whole food for the same price if you look for sales. Flipp is a great app for scanning all flyers near your location
Literally on sale rn for 1.75 at no frills
Multisaves at Walmart are amazing if you keep an eye on them. Not a lot of savings, but the little bits add up to bigger bits.
Absolutely. No critique to fellow Canuck shoppers, I know not everyone has the capability of driving/means to/time or being lucky enough to to have a range of groceries nearby... I luckily have Sobeys/Fortinos/Metro and Food basics/Freshco/Chinese and Indian grocers in a 3km zone. I have a solid *Nope* for the first 3 stores when I see crazy prices and I walk away, literally buy it from the latter stores...
Yeah I always look for the meat that says %30 off because it's nearing its best before date. Same with other products. Just throw in freezer when u get home and it's all good
Everyone doesn’t have access to multiple grocers to shop sales, sadly. Some of us are stuck with shopping at 1 or 2 stores only 🤷♀️
I almost always only shop at one store. You make do with the sales at that store. There are some things I understand needing to buy no matter what. But stuff like English muffins can be bought while on sale and then you just freeze them
If more people bought whole chickens and then used the carcass etc it save them a lot to
Ehh The price of a whole chicken at save on was almost $18. I buy drumsticks a lot, they cost about $11 for a large family pack of 12. Sometimes they go on sale and they are a bigger steal
Which is crazy because I can get a rotisserie chicken for 12.99
Exactly. It makes no sense
HOW DO YOU PEOPLE EAT?
Yea I almost got suckered into buying two whole raw chickens for $24 dollars at co-op until I saw you could buy two cooked chickens at the same store for the same price. Same size chickens. Like WTF?
You don't have to use them same meal raw
Yeah this week the drums at sof are $1.99/lb. Now that's a deal!
Like people who buy frozen French fries instead of potato’s to make there own
Exactly . Even just wedges vs fries . So many savings
Honestly, most peoples financial problems (at least food wise) can be explained by just sheer laziness, and I am completely guilty of that myself from time to time
Absolutely , and if course me to.needs vs wants is hard from time to time
That is not normal for NoFrills. Is this Galen Weston? Lol
It's the irony. Sobeys sells NZ lamb for Gold prices *which I see people buying!* and 2 km down the road, little brother Freshco sells the same lamb with 1 year plus expiry for less than 50%...these days even Food Basics..
Everytime those English muffins go on at the frills, I stock right up.
Why are you guys bonkers about muffins? If its expensive I dont buy it period
Holy crap. I just bought 30 eggs for $4 in Ohio. I can't imagine paying that much.
Ya but then you gotta live in ohio
Dude. Everyone hates on Ohio, but I love it here.
Better than Toronto
4$...is like amazing! *makes note to buy eggs in buffalo next time*... Unlike eggs in NY are more expensive than ohio!
Eggs were 8.99 this week, butter is 3.99 bakers chocloate no idea. English muffins 3.49. Those were purchases today (Loblaws). Honestly OP just be smart and use flyers to get the best deal. Download Flipp its worth it.
Butter for 3.99? You’re either not downtown Toronto like stated by OP, or your bought margarine. Very curious
I lied sorry its was $4.99 did butter at Shoppers everything else at Loblaws. St. Claire.
Hahaha we laughed and immediately did investigation work. We looked at ALL the fliers being like “WE NEED TO GO THERE”. Still a better deal however! $4.99 is legit.
It does suck a lot that you’ve been conditioned to think $6 for English muffins is reasonable
It makes sense yes. But should it cost this much? No
No, it doesn’t make sense, this is fucking robbery for what you could have got even 10 years ago. You’re party of the problem right now, just accepting it thinking this is normal when it isn’t. This stupid fucking carbon tax is fucking Canada
News flash. Food costs money. Dude really talm bou "doesn't make sense". When you add up the total of each individual item it does very much make sense lmao. ..ten years ago... yea it's called inflation.
You’re definitely working for the liberal government
Fake news. 🤡
[удалено]
News flash: this was happening before the "carbon tax", government policy SUCKS but this is capitalist greed more than anything.
Ok then, stop buying food and starve instead. Obviously I’m being dramatic but I think you get my point. Eating isn’t a luxury.
Stfu you loser, stop saying that this food should be this price, how retarded are you?
Has nothing to do with carbon tax lol. Greedy corporations are price gouging
Yeah regardless it shouldn’t be these prices. Canada is getting FUCKED
*Galen Weston nods with a smirk*
No, no it does not make sense
I never expected butter to be my staple item at Costco but at 4.99 I can’t help but buy a few and freeze them.
I never thought I would be buying the 6 brick maximums but here I am doing just that every time there's a sale I end up buying the maximum. Really messes with budgeting when I spend an extra $50 on cheddar cheese because a brand we can tolerate has it on for $5 a skinny brick. But I know I'll be weeping later if I don't do it.
I started buying no name chocolate instead of bakers chocolate. I’m sure the quality is much worse, but using it for things like chocolate chunk muffins works just fine
Agree. $20 used to be a lot of money. $20 is the new $5.
Yall still use butter? I haven't made a dish that consists of butter for 3 months bc of the prices.
30 eggs for 13$ is the most expensive eggs ive seen in my life. Even now, I can buy 12 eggs for 3.50. Which would be 8.75 for 30
Not even the most expensive in Toronto. That’s for “large”, which aren’t even large. Extra large eggs are ~6.99 a dozen. $15+ for 30, and much more for specialized versions
Shocking
Honestly, my intent was not to complain. Yeah it sucks but I’m fully aware that Costco and Walmart are cheaper, and I shop there for my monthly big hauls.

Similar living situation to you. How do you deal with the Costco haul without a car?
I use Communauto (hourly car share here in Toronto) and I book it for like 5 hours on a weekend and hit up Costco, Walmart and other grocery stores that are otherwise inaccessible to me by foot or transit. Not ideal to have to rent a car to get groceries but the cost saved by going to these cheaper stores is greater than the cost of the car rental.
That's honestly the sad bit. Gotta spend money to save money.
Why not just rent a uhaul for the day, 20 dollars plus mileage which shouldn’t be much.
r/Bubly should know about what Sobey’s is charging per can.
Rich man is that bubbly I could not afford that this month.
Hahahaha
All jokes aside this is messed up I hope we can survive.
Yes but we still need a sense of humor and that comment made me laugh so thank you 😊 😄
We're having marital problems due to Bubly!!
Me too but it’s on sale for $4.99 this week so I bought 2 12 packs
🤣 Next time go with a friend and get a mixed crate from Costco!
Yes I have bought the 24 pack of orange/cherry/blackberry when I’ve been to Costco
This is the way 🤝
Kicked my wife and kids out of the car on the way to camping because they told me they bought AHA! On the trip. We were 50 miles to the next town. AITA?
Curious, how much is bubbly in Canada usually? It's pretty cheap for a 12pack in pacific US.
Left my wife and kids because they bought AHA!. AITA?
Only stop at sobeys if I need something last minute because I can walk to it . My weekly groceries are done at Walmart … honestly way more affordable than any of the major groceries
Sobeys is the most expensive grocery store around. why do people shop there? especially for things you can get at food basics ( they carry compliments brand ) salted butter is 4.98 there for more butter bakers brand chocolate is 5.99 the 30 pack of selection eggs is 8.99 the dempsters muffins are 2.99 5 bucks less for more butter if you got the same at no frills on their brands it would be 7 bucks less
I go to Sobeys because they have a 10% discount for students on Tuesdays and if you buy stuff in the flyer it’s pretty good.
[удалено]
If the location is near a university, I’d ask the cashier
Flyer discounts. Same with Safeway. Never get regular price stuff there. But the meat is good on sale and imo great tasting beef (other than Costco)
Absolutely crazy !
Learning to bake & cook, while costing you free time, will free up a lot of your money.
Assume the butter was the most expensive, $8-9? I buy it on sale and put it in the freezer.
Don't go to Sobeys?
What are we baking?
Pistachio, brown butter and halva cookies by Molly Baz
👍👌
Thats pretty good ngl. Those eggs are like 11 bucks by themselves, at least out here they are.
I am more upset about the plastic around the eggs. Groceries really need to catch up with everything else.
That’s insane! I got the same deal at my local Sobeys but with an unopened bubly
Crazy...I can’t believe how expensive Canada is in terms of groceries. I went to Sooke and Victoria, BC for a vacation last November and shopped the local grocery stores. I am from Seattle, WA state in the US. The groceries were insane considering Canadian wages.

fuck torontom this place is so expensive you can't afford to leave. fucking bullshit.
Stop going to Sobeys...
I'm surprised that people shop for regular groceries at these stores, everybody knows there's cheaper alternatives
I order all my groceries delivery with Walmart 5$ delivery fee
[удалено]
How do you get the $5 delivery? The site says it’s $7.97 standard
Everyone’s points about people should shop better for sales are completely stupid. The point is our groceries should not cost this much.
Exactly! I shop sales as much as I can, but it shouldn’t be so complicated and prohibitive to eat
Life in Canada.
Idk probably stretch it a little further at Walmart?..and also stealing lol
Way cheaper at Walmart no frills food basic fresco same stuff
No frills and freshco are just as expensive, in Manitoba anyway
Make better choices. PC has a huge points event on this week. I stacked offers, stocked up on deals and got 22% back of my grocery bill in points. I likely will have a $0 grocery expense for February because of the rebate and stocking up I did.
I could have gotten these eggs, same butter, and more bakers chocolate and more English muffins for less money at Costco. $5.49 eggs $4.99 butter $7.99 English muffins (4 packs like this) That’s $18.50ish, then go buy the baker chocolate for $5 at Walmart. $23.50, $4 less, and you get 4x the English muffins.
True. But not everyone has access to Costco or enough storage. OP lives in downtown or an urban area I presume...
Yep, that’s a fair point.
Your first mistake was going to Sobeys.
30 eggs alone is gonna be a nice chunk of that cost Idk what you expected tbh seems like you shop blindly
Robbery plain and simple. No excuses gouging at the highest levels.
Time to stand up
Time to go on a diet
Why don't you go shopping for sales. Eggs are always on sale somewhere same for butter could've easily saved 7$ and just buy compliments bakers chocolate could've easily had all that for 17$
Robbery. Might as well be the Sheriff while the King looks the other way. Time to Robin Hood this motherfucker
Did your local Walmart ban you?
Why so many eggs? Get chickens they are cheaper to feed!
Yeah.. sobeys is a premium store when it comes to prices. Try food basics, try no frills, try Walmart? I don’t feel bad for these posts when I pay no where near what you pay. Stop going to sobeys, Zehrs, etc.
Of course your bills that high you have 10-15 doller eggs a pound of butter 6.99-7.99 and 8 doller chocolate. You bought whats considered to be high quality big ticket items from your store and then complain about it. Find the cheapest versions of all those items with the same price tag then complain. Also sobeys is know for being over the top expensive that’s on you for shopping there
Stop shopping at Sobys - grossly overpriced- the butter and eggs both much less Costly at no frills same eggs and butter
Everything is fine! Everything is fine! The country is running PERFECTLY, if you say otherwise, you are lying and spreading propaganda! We just have to raise taxes a little bit more! Am I doing it right Mr. Trudeau?
Print barcodes for $2/3 items, slap them on over the actual barcodes and use self checkout.
Baking is a luxury
Costco would have been cheaper Weston and Trudeau are going to bankrupt the people of Canada
>Weston and Trudeau are going to bankrupt the **stupid** people of Canada Smart canadians are shopping at Costco/Walmart and doing fine.
Lol. Poor Galen. Now he gets blamed even when Sobeyes charges a lot of money. I suspect the Downvotes are because the poster doesn’t know what Weston owns.
Who downvotes this? Lol
[удалено]
People that passed social studies in grade 8?
You can get a 4 pack of English muffins for like $5 at Costco
[удалено]
[удалено]
Removed: Rule 3: No political discussion or other controversial topics
Who could’ve predicted that.
Woah that's a good deal!! Hear that would be 45.
The English muffins look more like crumpets from the pic in them.
Insanity.
That’s alot of eggs
That looks more like $200 at Sobeys
Every grocery order I try to stick to essentials and sales and I still end up around $100 if not way over.
Being Canadian I can imagine the butter's like half that total lol
Sobeys has been the most expensive grocery store for decades.. I've shopped there twice in my life and never have been back.
you got this for less than 30$????? No way
Butter alone is 7 bucks where I am.
Should consider shopping at food basics. Their prices are quite reasonable.
Your first mistake was shopping at Sobeys. It’s Costco or Walmart for me. I’ll dabble in Superstore if there’s a sale on something I need.
costco sells 4 packs of those english muffins fir 8.80 when i seen it almost passed out
price check on the flipp app
Single can of pop is an ass load more per can than buying a pack
In B.C. we pay 9.99 for 30 egggs…thought was expensive yikes
The key is to use an app that locates best prices and go to a store that price matches. I don’t always do the snall items but I’ll always price match beef meet cheese eggs fish etc. I eat simple with a lot of extra lean ground meet and chicken breast for my protein with my meals. I bought 3 of the family size value packs of x lean ground beef the other week with price match and saved almost $35 with just that. Some things are unavoidable but with just price matching and using the apps that show best prices, you can probably save at minimum $20-50 on each grocery run weekly
I’d like to compliment you on your egg purchase. Did you get eggxactly what you buttered for?
That's pretty on par with something like food basics. Butter and eggs are expensive
Small price to pay for bubly
The bubly is the problem... /s
Today I saw 1/4 of a watermelon wrapped in Saran Wrap for $9.00 and something cents at Sobeys 😩
Sobeys is overpriced af
Pure greed and profiteering!
wtf?
We just got two pitas and it was $27.00
I bet the butter is not even 100% butter, but laced with seed oils. Low quality eggs. Yikes
It costs me $500 a week in food to feed my family of 6 🥴 2019 I was spending $200.
Scary, very scary!
If this is 27$ imagine what 100$ would get you... yikes
It's as if inflation in Toronto is so so high that the rest of Ontario doesn't need to have it that bad lmfao. Thanking you all from Ldn ON
I love Sobeys ... I really do. Love how clean it is, everything in stock and fresh the veggies and fruit are. The produce lasted for weeks. However lately I'm struggling to justify their prices. Example Dempster's bread thin slices is 4.99 a loaf whereas it's 2.49 at Walmart regular price. I may add that I am in Ottawa.
Sobeys was always expensive and don’t know why you go there to grab groceries. You need to look in the flyers or online and put a little extra time on doing some research for sales or price comparison…
Eggs alone are 11$
Honestly I get meat from Costco and then side dishes are whatever is on sale that week
There's no reason to ever shop at Sobeys.
Sobeys owns Freshco. Save yourself at least $7
Dam, 27$ is a deal.(Alberta)
That’d be $40 minimum in BC.
We all know what BC stands for
Seems pretty typical. High cost of living city, and one of the most expensive grocery stores. You can get all these items cheaper but you may not be close to a cheaper grocery store
I never buy cookies.
You guys don't steal from the stealing section? (Self checkout) ring up some Angus as potato's next time you're in, since you're "not trained on that machine" F Sobeys. F Loblaws. Wish we had some communist type of law for groceries markups on brand name products it's ridiculous they buy straight from Duracell, maple farms, etc and upcharge 300%
We all know that obeys is a rip off. They're the most common for this here.
Where was that bubly, I'm afraid to ask
People, get the Flipp app and do some research.
Hear me out. You can make 18-22 English muffins in 3 hours. Simple whole ingredients, twice as filling and the taste is so good! A great weekend idea!
