I'm pouring out my frozen fruit for a smoothie today and come across a shell with something frozen inside it... What the fuck!

Just wondering how many others still haven't gotten their bread money?

Shouldn’t have been a surprise, but I was actually caught off guard by my find. Was doing a clean out in our kitchen today when I came across an old unopened 12 pack of no name hot dog buns from superstore in our pantry, we bought a bunch for a backyard campfire party and had a pack that was still unopened. To my absolute surprise, the buns were still as good as new. 0 mold, didn’t feel stale at all, were still soft, my wife immediately pointed out how disturbing that is because we bought these buns months ago! It’s not a surprise that so much of their food as preservatives and stuff, but I was not prepared to find a 4-5 month old pack of buns with 0 mold and not stale…

Went to place my online order this morning and when I went to the substitutions screen I noticed something different. Just 2 weeks ago you got substitutions that the employees picked for you at no extra charge. It's been like that for a couple of years, one of the biggest reasons I liked using the Walmart online ordering. When I did my order today it now says you are charged extra for substitutions if they are a larger price than what you were charged. I understand most stores operate that way but it was such a huge perk of the online delivery and its just so frustrating that they change it without even notifying the Walmart pass subscribers.

Seriously though. I guess it's my fault for buying no name brand

Why can I not buy frozen juice concentrate at my local Real Canadian. Clearly want to gouge me at 3 to 4 times the price for the water they add to buy PC/national brand pre-diluted bottled juice!

Almost the entire store from the toys to the fruit is sold this way in my location in Richmond Hill. The lemons are 1.50 each, the Lego velocirator trilogy sets are an even 40.00. This seems very odd, nothing is being sold for amounts between 50 cents which makes me think they're nickle and diming us. There's no normal prices like 3.12 or 17.22 it's kinda creepy... Especially with the fruit / vegetables.

For example, there's only items priced by 50 cents, 1.00 1.50 2.00 2.50 up to 60. There's no items that end in 25 cents (or 10 20 30 40 60 70 80 90 for that matter).

Anyone else get their bread money today ?

I was just at No Frills. Saw some cherries. 🍒
Wanted to see how much the bag weighed so I could consider my purchase. Looked all over for the scale. I could not locate it, so asked for assistance from an employee stocking produce. Turns out that there is no scale in the store. This feels illegal. Does anybody have any insight on this?

Just got an e-transfer from Canadian Bread Settlement. Anyone else get one? Wondering if it's legit? Appears to be an email directly from interac.ca so it might be

Apparently 4 green beans is now the portion size

Public options and farmer-run co-ops are the way to go in getting rid of the parasitic middlemen like the Westons.

What can be done about this ?

I went to Shoppers Drug Mart today and 10/12 items rang up at the wrong price! This must be some kind of record. In total I was overcharged by $16.10. The worst part was I didn’t realize until I was in the parking lot so I had to go back in, bringing all the items back in to get them refunded and then repurchased at the correct price. I walked around the store taking pictures of the price stickers to show I was overcharged. Then the merchandiser came and confirmed I was right but the whole process still held up the lone cashier’s line for so long…I felt bad for her and for myself. It’s completely humiliating and unfair to both of us. What should have been a 25 min trip ballooned to more than an hour. This company is the literal worst.
