Of the Sobeys stores here, there's quite a difference between the best and the others. The funny thing is the people behind the cake/bakery counter in the best are really unhelpful while those on cakery in the worst one are very good.

Jam Doughnuts from Superstore on the rare occasion they have them. |
Re: Groceries
I ran out of Lea & Perrins so bought another 568ml bottle for $6 at Wholesale Club. I think the last one lasted almost 2 years. There's no point buying the tiny bottles and beans aren't the same without a splash.

I like this one. http://pronki.com/images/products/bi...20%20Sauce.jpg Just a few drops on a chicken breast in a small casserole dish prior to cooking. It even works in a microwave astonishingly well on the defrost setting. |

I remember Maxi in Longueuil. A bit scruffy and I never made an association with Loblaws which was definitely the posh supermarket there.
I suspect it's a reaction to Walmart now selling food. Very disturbing news is that the Coupe Longeueil is coming back into fashion. That really is disturbing! |

Re: Groceries
Forgot to mention...200g Snowdonia Cheese Truckles, $8.99 BOGOF, Sobeys.
I stuck with Black Bomber. Hoping to buy a few more Wednesday. Very nice and without the saltiness of Balderson. |
Re: Groceries
We ran out of coffee at the weekend so I went to my local Couche Tard (aka Mac's), where a 325g tin of Maxwell House cost me well over $9.
In a regular supermarket you can get a 925g tin of it for under $7. Couche Tard is the fourth-largest company in Canada in terms of sales revenue. Can't imagine why:rolleyes: |
Re: Groceries
