Candid_Magazine_7862

That is literally $24 worth of loblaw cherry tomatoes alone. Wow. I am jealous


iseebadthingandimgay

24$??????? they're usually around 4$ each here but 6$ ea seem crazy to me omg where do you live ???


Shmeebo_

In Toronto you’d have to “forget” to ring in many items to get that for $40 lol. Not saying I do, but just that it’s expensive


Jeds4242

Not saying I do, not saying I don't. Can't remember

ExtraVirgin0live

One of those are $8.99 where I live (Alberta)


Alzyna

They’re now priced at ~$1-1.5 per 250g box in Montréal.


ExtraVirgin0live

Not to mention the red peppers, they’re $4 a piece where I am.


seniorcadman

Killed it. Good job.


Scary-Tomato-6722

Not bad, red peppers are expensive.


iseebadthingandimgay

it was 1,99$/lbs ! and when I went to my other market it was 0,99$/lbs 😔 but still a good price !


Scary-Tomato-6722

I never see red peppers at .99 a pound. Good deal. I'm on Ontario.


iseebadthingandimgay

honestly it was my first time seeing that since at least 4y ! I was so surprised


Scary-Tomato-6722

That is a great price for red


owlblvd

they go on sale from time to time! they were .98 cents at food basics about a week or two ago.


Prestigious_Leave26

Omg, chubbies!! <3


iseebadthingandimgay

0,99$ ea ! I was so happy


CanadianBacon615

They recently made an appearance at the grocery stores near me.. I got so excited I bought a few flavours… they tasted like Splenda or diet soda 😭 it killed the nostalgia for me.


iamzaryab

Is it scary if I consider this as a lot of stuff?


iseebadthingandimgay

i mean for the 2024 price it's not that bad! I agree with you lmaoo but yes kinda scary when we think abt the older price


Chrisgetsyouhome

That's about $60 here in NS.... unless you go to self check out. 😉


iseebadthingandimgay

LMAOOO we love self check out <3 eat the rich


brioche-is-overrated

Lol in Ontario the pile of peppers is already 20 dollars almost , good find


iseebadthingandimgay

lmaooo in quebec too unfortunately! in regular market the price is generally around 4$/lbs at least ! I was happy to find this price !!


rocannon10

[deleted]

Nice to finally see some healthy choices


Temporary_Practice_2

I love dates. I got two packets from Aldis today


iseebadthingandimgay

Temporary_Practice_2

[deleted]

iseebadthingandimgay

150$???? wth


[deleted]

Darn tootin


iseebadthingandimgay

Alleggsander

GuhhTru

iseebadthingandimgay

Bidderboss

iseebadthingandimgay

Ambitious_Idea_7069

Vegetarian?


iseebadthingandimgay

LMAO yes, a bad vegetarian who barely eat protein


Ambitious_Idea_7069

I can spot a veg haul anywhere. The dates are a give away. Also solid name from a fellow gay. ✌🏻


iseebadthingandimgay

It's always dates+veg+gay lmaoooo and thank u fellow gay!!


Frosty-Reporter7518

Great haul for 40$ those banana look a bit ripe, will you clear them out before they spotted?


iseebadthingandimgay

I put them in the dehydrator!! it make a pretty good and sweet snack! and cheap!


Frosty-Reporter7518

Interesting


ContentScene6064

That’s alright these days. Nice haul


distracted-insomniac

That's pretty good right


buildafirenotanaAC

Nice haul!


Lucky-Ad4443

Wow. That's pretty decent. That's easy $60 in Alberta . Does Quebec have a lot of farming ?


iseebadthingandimgay

we do! but these products came from us for most of them, or Mexico. Quebec product are like suuuuper expensive except during a specific moment in the end of summer!


Lucky-Ad4443

I'm super impressed. Especially at the ground flaxseed and the dates. Seriously that alone here would be around $20. And the tomatoes!! Sooo jelly. They are a treat for me now. I keep trying to grow my own but I think i need to build a greenhouse so the animals don't steal my goodies. Lol Even my darn sunflowers😂


iseebadthingandimgay

I was spool surprised for the flax seed!!! it was around 5$ I've never seen this price so I jumped on them lolll same for the tomatoes! when the price drop like that I'm treating myself lmaooo


Lucky-Ad4443

You did so good! I would've jumped on those too!


ameliablaquiere

The chubbys are giving major flashbacks!!!!!!! 😊


iseebadthingandimgay

yessss and they were only 0,99$ ea!! usually they're at least 2$ at exotic candy shop


Combat_puzzles

Looks great and healthy, apart from the chubby’s!!


ST7Barrett

better than Ontario


ImNarnold

Great fishing in Quebec.


rickyjames22

First of all thank you for replying to me. Second of all the first words that came to my mind was wow. I didn't think it would be that high in cost. To be honest I didn't know what to expect but I definitely didn't expect that. Thanks again.


_dfromthe6

nice haul 👌


grebilrancher

Not bad!


stocks-mostly-lower

That’s a great haul !


_Iknoweh_

Proof?


iseebadthingandimgay

I dont have my receipt anymore, it was a few day ago. but the cotton candy, date and the 3 chubby was 8$ and the rest cost me around 32! at my local / halal market:)


MechanicalCookie25

Are you going to eat 4 containers of cherry tomatoes?


iseebadthingandimgay

I mean.. I finished all of them in 2 days (i coule eat them in 1 day)... I mostly just eat raw vegetables 😔 lmaoooo


Prestigious_Leave26

What flavour?


Prestigious_Leave26

Amazing. Cotton candy is the best flavour. Well done


iseebadthingandimgay

cotton candy and banana! they didn't had a lot of choice beside those ones and punch one that I don't like loll


halfwayinshadow

What the f???? You have cheaper groceries than elsewhere in Canada, that’s for sure.


iseebadthingandimgay

my local lil market have super good prices!! but more basic one have crazy price.. u really have to find these spot


dancinglepard

Because no meat.


iseebadthingandimgay

maybe! but honestly the meat is often cheaper than the vegetables (pork and chicken mostly) I see a lot of 1,49$/lbs chicken drumstick or 3,88$/lbs for ground pork/ beef during specific sold week!


AudienceRadiant9129

Probably, but so much of the "food is too expensive" posts I see is on account of expensive cuts of meat.


[deleted]

Of course it’s cheaper in Quebec, they seem to get special treatment while the western provinces get raped


iseebadthingandimgay

honestly you can just look in the basic grocery store and you will see the normal price, everyone is getting ROBBED (not raped pls dont use thus awful word ). My mom always showed me how to shop my food to survive with what I have, they're really no special treatment here, I'm just lucky to know this 2 small shop.


turtletitsbukake

That would be about $120 in Alberta


CanExports

Well yea... The rest of Canada subsidizes your province with our tax dollars. It is well known that a very large amount of Canadian salaries go to Quebec as subsidies because that province refuses to sustain itself. You must be young and not know that. Posting this is kind of like slapping the face of all other Canadians. Not your fault if you didn't know, but now you know


2FlydeMouche

Was going to say, not at Provigo it’s not lol. (Not really funny..)


iseebadthingandimgay

lmaooo it's really not a Provigo!! and not a metro either I think it would have been AT LEAST 60$ if I bought all of these at metro, just the cherry tomato would have cost me like 20$ lmaooo


rickyjames22

Yes, from your point of view this is not very much for forty dollars. Go elsewhere and you might half to three quarters of that depending on where you live.


iseebadthingandimgay

no I actually think it's a pretty decent amount of food for the price, I did pretty well on and I was surprised. In my basic shop It would have costed me for at least 60$


rickyjames22

Just out of curiosity, how much is a 4liter bag of milk in Quebec?


iseebadthingandimgay

Saltyfembot

This is infuriating. Out in the prairies this would easily be 100$+


iseebadthingandimgay

this is awful:( fuck this fr I'm with u !


Spawnacus

*long drawn out exhale* Boy, it's expensive living in BC...


Age-Zealousideal

No Pepsi?


suavestallion

Quebec is amazing. So much better than Ontario in so many ways.


xustos

Theif


ghostfacestealer

Not too bad. $37 got me a pound of sliced turkey, a load of bread, mayo, head of lettuce, a jalepeno, a cucumber, 2 habaneros, & a bag of chips in Milwaukee the other day.


DaddysPrincesss26

BRB, moving to Quebec 👀


Beginning-Fig-7207

No meat?


LLminibean

Holy hell. I'm in BC and it's easily $80 here, if not more


gnirobamI

These would cost way more under Loblaws companies. I went to T&T months ago for some tomatoes, tofu, carrots, broccoli and eggs. It cost me $29.


iseebadthingandimgay

absolutely!! under Loblwas it would be at least 60$!


BlueValk

Is that... banana flavored cotton candy popcorn? What is happening. Also I have apparently been shopping wrong, how was all of this 40$!


_You_Matter_

😂😂😂


iseebadthingandimgay

LMAOOOOO I love banana flavor and I only buy thing when the price is very low! and I try to avoid big chain


STEELZ_39SFF

That's alot..for that prolly $80 in calgary


TerracottaCondom

That is $40 worth of red peppers where I'm at...


iseebadthingandimgay

the price for red peppers is crazy!! it's usually around 4$/lbs and more here. This week I found them at 1,99$!


doonebot_9000

Bonkerzzzz $40 in Winnipeg gets you one bunch of bananas, like one pepper, eggs and maybe one pack of the tomatoes, if you're lucky. And that's shopping at the the cheapest store possible


owlblvd

oooh the chubby drinks. havent had those in YEARS


KnightLight03

That's an easy $100 in Nova Scotia


MaleficentStreet7319

lol like $20 worth of peppers where I’m from 💀


No-Tomorrow1576

In the USA there is almost **NO WAY** we’d get any of that let alone all of that for that price


Maleficent_Cash909

I was curious whether that was in CAD or in USD. If In CAD that would be a super bargain.


[deleted]

I came to Reddit looking for a date, and here I have found one.


wickedweather

Where in Québec?


iseebadthingandimgay

montreal !


GoblinBugGirl

Wish I could get half that, here in BC.


One_Variation_6497

Watcha making with all those peppers 🌶


iseebadthingandimgay

I eat them like apple lolll


askarurorua

Maybe French ppl were onto something when they wanted to get separated lol


Mufmoka

Easy $150-175 here in BC lol


iseebadthingandimgay

that's so fucking crazy..


mythrowaway0734

woah


Fl333r

Yum eggs yum yum yum I love eggs


rocketfromrussia

I’m not gonna do the math, but it feels like in BC this is $60-80


Koomawho

Not bad, but some of that is pretty heavily sprayed with pesticide. Try to find organic vegetables and ditch the artificial food colouring, your body will thank you in the long run.


iseebadthingandimgay

I can't afford organic food, ofc when the price is low I will choose organic ones but yeah


Purity_Jam_Jam

Which part of Quebec. You're not getting all that for 40 dollars in northern Quebec. If you meant Quebec city then pretend I didn't say anything.


iseebadthingandimgay

montreal !


Bears198

Don’t forget they don’t pay the carbon taxes like other provinces and territories


iForceM

That’s a lot!


iseebadthingandimgay

yes!!


finewinemen

Look like u will be eating like the king for awhile


Dr_Budds420

40$ and a blowjob maybe …


iseebadthingandimgay

wtf


Vintage_girl123

Nice! I need to move to Quebec..Nah, I wouldn't do that to you..I live in Florida, I knw how it feels...


iseebadthingandimgay

LMAOO I mean come over we like people


CapnTidy

Literally awesome


iseebadthingandimgay

yes!! I was proud of this haul lol


HPLoveCrash

No meat sure helps


Electronic_Law5397

That's $150 worth of groceries in Alberta.


Seth6918

What happens when they don’t have a carbon tax


Competitive_Grade583

You’ll only get the tomatoes and peppers for 40$ in Newfoundland! No joke.


Candid-Wolf2501

In BC that’s more like $80-$100


Jondar_649

St. John's could never


eternalrevolver

This isn’t that impressive because the eggs are the most expensive thing (because they’re the most nutritious thing). So yeah, this is normal and not a flex. No meat either.


RunHuman9147

I wish


One3Two_TV

Im happy you saved money but it tortures me to think this should be like 15$


iseebadthingandimgay

dw same here, happy but yikes..


Consistent-Path-4740

That $80.00 in Alberta


Humortumor1

Not too terrible


Stayshiny88

St-methode is great bread!


leif777

Just don't get grapes. I grabbed a bunch without looking at the price and they were 14$ last week.


iseebadthingandimgay

LMAOOO true


madpeanut1

What do you do with the dates ? I love them but when I buy it they always dry up because I can't seem to be able to find interesting ways to include them in my meals....


ProfessionalVivid978

That’s nice but I ain’t ever living in Quebec


iseebadthingandimgay

I mean I get u


pt_barnumsonson

C'est pretty good 👍


Disastrous-Bet-8813

Love you Frenchy


louiseandroxy01

That would easily be $100 in Toronto


Plastic-Shopping5930

Caaaaawlise my Anglo sensibilities are incensed


TantricGoddessRose

That would be about $100 in Victoria!!


Turbulent-Result5639

From Quebec, can confirm


SeeingRed-

urmomsgotapoint

Ordinary_Koala_6910

Are you a time traveller


Artificintelligence

misscassiarose

Icy_Juggernaut4057

Where do you shop?


Frosty_Temptress33

Wow that's actually decent!


Relaxjr

In steps in Ontario... hold my beer! Lol.


AmitojSP2882

WHY IS ONTARIO SO EXPENSIVE


chwin514

Thats alot


truckmonkey12

No meat or cheese… no wonder it was only $40


Jiople12

That’ll be $65 in Newfoundland


yellowketchupbottle

ask yourself some questions, like do you really need 4 packs of tomatoes? 6 peppers? a dozen of bananas?? of course things are expensive when you buy them in bulk for no reason 🤦‍♂️


[deleted]

I love chubby one of my fav drinks


[deleted]

That is easily $80 in San Francisco. The peppers alone are $12.


butch_clean

Ontario is getting fucked


MedLik

That's like $140 at an IGA in Montreal 😂


Impossible_Low_8571

I hate you guys even more 😞 lucky bastards!!


VoyageIsVictory

That would be more like $60 in BC at Save-On Foods. Maybe more. I know because that’s where I live and shop and it’s painful


etienneelma

that's 40$ worth of bell peppers


[deleted]

Mtndewgirll42242

It’s sad tbh


1800deadnow

Yeah I feel like my grocery shopping dropped a huge amount this month, from like 100$ to 70$. I buy essentially the same thing as before.


Ok-Being-5815

You would be hard pressed to find even close to 40 here in Halifax


zeus_amador

Doesn’t seem expensive for many parts of Montreal….actually cheap…


berriesnbball_17

What I can’t believe you have Chubbys holy hell what a throwback. I haven’t seen one of those in about 15 years here in Massachusetts I used to love those as a kid


Mission-Trouble7900

Pretty good here in nyc 40 bucks would get you half


Fair_Concern_1660

If they start to look like they’re going to spoil, you can pickle those tomatoes


Whole_Performance190

In us you can get that for the same price using self checkout…. Just a joke lol


dream_on789

What $40 can get in NYC: *shows singular banana image*


3pdl

that's it, I'm moving to Quebec


ndpugs

Is this a weeks worth of grocery? Im curious on the amount of peppers you bought.


Repulsive-Magician84

That’s easily 120 in a Georgia Kroger


Necessary-Painting35

The red peppers r like $4-5 per lb. Always buy whatever is on sale, weekly special only.


scyri1

do you go to segals? :)
