Re: Groceries

Yep.
I think they do beef too in other stores.

Re: Groceries

Yes, but there are some differences especially with baked on site stuff.
(although my "Atlantic" comment was more of a joke given your coast ;))

Re: Groceries

:nod: No jelly at all. But I felt there was more (missing) to it than just that.

Perhaps they could have glued the filling to the bottom and sides. :lol:

I didn't know you had Atlantic Superstore out your way :lol:

The pork pies don't work. They rattle :blink:

Re: Groceries

I don't think I ever bought a sausage roll in Greggs - the steak bake was more my 'go to' - but I reckon the ones from Atlantic Superstore (Loblaws too presumably) must be pretty damn close.

Re: Groceries

So...the steak was every bit as good taste wise but it was definitely a little chewier than other tenderloin/rib eye we've had.

I shall try the tenderising hammer for the next ones to see what...

Re: Groceries

I've stopped paying much attention to Wholesale Club (part of Superstore/Loblaws) but happened to notice "Commercial Grade" Whole Rib Eye on offer for $9.99/lb (Optimum member price $6.99/lb).

I know what you mean about spending less time in the supermarket but it takes about 2 minutes to look at a flyer and if something catches your eye - like something half its usual price should do -...

Re: Groceries

Well that's better than nothing but it doesn't take much, for example, to notice that President's Choice burgers are $15 for a pack of 8 - which is pretty good value for the quality anyway - if you...

Re: Groceries

My MIL used hers for a laptop there a good few years ago.

I've always said Shoppers is underrated. It looks expensive if you buy randomly but many of their offers are as good as anywhere.

But I...

Re: Groceries

Not only is Superstore giving Optimum points with on line shopping, they've now introduced the ability to use the points in the on line order which is great.

Almost every week they have a "flash...

Re: Groceries

And then reinstated it.

I realised that I only need to order from Giant Tiger twice a month and the lower fees from subscribing save more than the subscription cost. So long as Instacart operates...

This sort of stuff has been available for many years but this is the first time I've seen Walmart advertising it like this.

With the exception of Robinsons. I've not noticed that before. The...

Re: Groceries

I've cancelled Instacart.

Overall I was happy with the service. Paying the monthly subscription was worth it for the reduced individual delivery fees but they no longer do flyer prices at Walmart...

Re: Groceries

It's still possible to get some great deals.

Instacart seems to have cancelled Walmart's flyer prices and very often Giant Tiger flyer prices but not this week.

I just bought 6 big boneless,...

Re: Groceries

Nice that Superstore is now doing its own delivery. The prices are the store/flyer prices (unlike with Instacart - sample chicken at superstore this week $5.05/kg, via Instacart $9.90/kg) and the...

Most of my grocery shopping for the last two years has been via instacart. So I've become used to things being more expensive because they sometimes charge a bit more than the...

Re: Groceries

I've long suspected that Instacart shoppers sometimes change their names or maybe sign up using a different name.

Proof today. A new name came up as today's shopper but the accompanying photo was...

Re: Groceries

Definitely a distinctive smell when cooking but I wouldn't say a bad one. But some oregano might help.

My wife never liked lamb. She said it tasted of cadaver.

Order was for about $140 but delivery was missing a bag of stuff that was over $70. Obviously a simple...
