Last week one of my followers commented about the "sale" price of Bick's pickles and I wanted to take a moment to address it. Walmart - and Loblaws - often advertise products that are the regular price. It is very sneaky of them because you think that you're getting a deal but you really aren't. … Continue reading Weekly Flyer Review – Groceries

Do any of you watch HGTV? I may - MAY - have a slight addiction to watching the channel. In fact, my TV is usually left on it. It really just provides background noise so that I don't have to listen to the daily, and nightly sounds of hospital living.

Don't you hate how some places raise prices right before a long weekend? Like gas? Bastards! Anyway, you don't care that Loblaws does not have great sales … Continue reading Weekly Flyer Review – Groceries
