Lobster prices are constant due to there not being a war in Nova Scotia.

My friend who lives on the far side of town sometimes picks up my flashfood order from the Superstore in his area, and sometimes I'll collect his from Wholesale Club and we'll exchange it at the club, more or less in the middle. Saves gas, saves time, etc. Knowing he was going to the store, I checked and bought a couple of these Oka cheeses. I've always liked Oka cheese - something good coming out of Quebec. No way am I buying it at $6.99, but for $2 I'll take two. Reminds me of a medium soft Gouda.

Re: Groceries
As for empty shelves, I am seeing quite a bit of that... couldn't even buy chicken the other week! I went into Farmboy and they were selling turkey cuts instead, so I bought those.... ended up enjoying that more. lol

I've still not seen any. I mostly shop locally or at Independent in Peterborough. Did, you move from Pbro? Is there a real Farmboy nearish or do you mean the grubby place on Lansdowne..?
No this place is not part of the Farmboy franchise...its the place on Lansdowne. It does seem to be a magnet for red necks, but they have usually got a nose for a bargain. The meat sold there is very good value for money and always very fresh. People have sometimes asked where I have bought the steaks that I have served at a dinner party....and they always looked shocked when I say Farmboy....lol a classic case of not judging a book by its cover I think. |

We pay $4 per lb for all of our beef and it doesn't matter whether we are buying mince or the best cuts of meat. Now, you may have to agree to buy half an animal in one go to get such a deal but, if you have a freezer, it doesn't really take up that much space and you will receive lots of cuts that can make no end of roasts/stews in the winter. |

With one of the most upmarket watering holes now closed I"m surprised there are any rednecks left in Peterborough. https://pigseardoc.ca/ |
