Last week I went on and on about the long weekend, how I hate that places raise prices before the long weekend and wishing everyone a safe long weekend…
Why, WHY didn’t anyone tell me that the long weekend was NOT last weekend but THIS coming weekend?! See what happens when you live in a hospital? Time passes but has no meaning. You guys must have thought that the nurses had me good and drugged! lol
Sadly, the whole raising prices before the long weekend holds true. Except Walmart and Food Basics. Walmart has some steaks on for a great price. No place has great sales on juices Pam but Walmart’s prices are usually better than anyone else.

You’re right! Walmart often advertises products as a sale but it’s actually the regular price. I only added it so you guys could use Ad Match at Loblaws. It’s not really a sale though.
