Alright fair. I've never seen a kiwi other than green so I assumed it was a brand name. Perhaps the golden fruit are better.

I am not a big fruit fan, but I have my picks. Most are too acidic for my liking

the gold ones are advertised to be easily eaten with a spoon, and they actually are. i just cut a bit of the top off, or split it in half and scoop out the flesh, and in the process getting out all the juice which literally pools in the fruit. itā€™s so interesting

i donā€™t really enjoy sour/extremely acidic flavors/sensations, but iā€™m one of those people who can eat lots of pineapple just fine and not have that ā€œburningā€ feeling around the mouth people tell me about.

> Between August 2021 and August 2022, a three-litre container of vegetable oil increased from $8.45 to $12.01, a difference of $3.56, according to the most recent Statistics Canada retail data, compiled by CBC News

Canola oil price is getting out of hand recently, especially considering Canada (where OP located) is largest producer in the world.

That doesnā€™t seem like much for $50 CAD. I hate how expensive everything is becoming.

That was the first thing I noticed here like damn, I donā€™t want to be paying 13$ for canola oil. 2022 kinda sucks.

Wait nvm thatā€™s a lot of canola oil, I thought it was like for one of the 2 litres.

I mean, this seems like a local, green, neighbourhood friendly store. They hijack the prices up as well.

Also, lets not act like the inflation hasnt hit Germany, I pay from 30ā‚¬ to now 40-50ā‚¬ for a few days groceries.

Itā€˜s ā€žonlyā€œ 36ā‚¬ (since itā€™s Canadian Dollars). And from a Google search the canola oil itself is probably several liters and Rapsƶl costs 2.26ā‚¬ at Aldi for 500ml (or 4.58ā‚¬/l)(first one I found), so itā€˜s probably not that much more expensive than in Germany.

I recently had my car filled with gas and it stopped right at $50.00 on the dot. I should've gotten a receipt for that one

Few weeks ago, my wife went shopping and rang me - "I've left my card at home and I think I've got more than Ā£100 worth of stuff...can you bring my card down?"

(She had her phone, which she can only use for payments of up to Ā£100).

I traipsed down to Lidl and found the wife in the queue for the checkout.

I suspect that many of you have already guessed...but yes, she spent exactly Ā£100

It looks like you actually bought $49.84 worth of grocery. They got you with the rounding tax.

Excuse me TEN DOLLARS for potatoes? I know it's Canadian dollars but that's still ridiculous o.o

Six staple, non-proteins itemsā€”though this is Canadian dollars.

  • oats
  • rice
  • fruit (honestly, very fair price for a pound of kiwis in Vancouver)
  • corn
  • oil (canola, which is chiefly grown in Canada anyway!)
  • potatoes

ā€œBuy-Lowā€

This happened to me a few weeks ago. The cashier said ā€œIā€™ll bet you canā€™t do that again.ā€ I said ā€œI could if I bought all the same stuff.ā€

I can't prove that but I bought 35 bucks worth groceries twice in a row. And I wasn't even buying the same things.

We do in BC. But not for curbside. Take back to the store where you paid the deposit, or the bottle depot. All beverages even milk has a deposit. Deposit means you'll get a refund.
