Here are a few of my grocery picks for this week:
Superstore:
spend $175, get free lasagna ($12.99 value). These taste pretty good.
Lean ground beef $2.48/lb
broccoli $0.96/bunch
No Name canned fruit (796ml) 2/$4
No Name shredded cheese (1kg) $10.98
this price doesn't meet my 'under $1/100g price' but, it's already grated. Throw it in the freezer and you're good to go for nachos, tuna melts, whatever and you don't have an extra dish to wash. Worth the extra $1 for me.
Danone creamy or sihouette 16x100g yogurt $4.97 (limit 2, over limit $6.97)
Duncan Hines cake mix 4/$4.88
VEGA ONE all-in-one nutritional shake $54.98, reg $69.99
I can't stomach these regularly but if you like shakes, these are completely plant-based and help get more beans and lentils in your diet. Created by an iron-man triathlete. Cool.
No Name stuffed chicken breasts (box of 2) 2 boxes/$5
Independent Grocer (Clearview)
I like comparing prices between superstore and independent flyers. Haven't done a complete shop yet to see which is a better deal overall. I'd love feedback if anyone has compared yet.
Boneless blade roast OR pork tenderloin $3/lb (JoAnn, can you confirm if this is a good deal?)
White mushrooms or peppers $2/lb
Romaine, red leaf or green leaf lettuce $1/head
French's mustard 455ml or Kraft BBQ sauce 225ml $1
Hmm, roast or pork + BBQ sauce = pulled beef/pork MMMMMM
No Name canned fruit 398/540ml 4/$5 (good if you want smaller cans)
pineapple $4
sidekicks $0.99
croissants 6 count $1
quaker granola bars 3/$5 (my benchmark price is $2/box)
No Name chicken or beef pot pies $1 each (once in a blue moon food, check out the fat content)
WalMart
Charmin 30 giant rolls TP (=75 single rolls) $14.97
cracker barrel cheese 700g $7.94 (still not at the $1/100g price but best I saw)
broccoli or celery $1
Old Spice or Secret deodorant $1.97 (I think regular price is usually around $3-4)
I don't even bother checking Save-On, Sobey's or Co-Op, so if there's anything fantastic from there, leave a comment.

I've only been into Independent twice so far, but I've liked it so far. I consider it my closest store, so it's worth it for me to stop by, but I've noticed some regular prices higher than Superstore ($1.09 for no name tuna instead of $.98 at SS, organic galas $4.99 instead of $4.49, etc, etc.) But their sales are good and I like that their 50% off (last day)stuff is plentiful and not picked over like SS. The eggs I like to buy at SS were the same price, but instead of 4-10 dozen (or none as is often the case!), they had over 50 dozen out on the shelf!!! :)
ReplyDeleteAlso Independent had yogurt Tubes for 2/$5, not advertised in flyers that I noticed. This is my benchmark price for these and I haven't seen it around for awhile.
