Up untill a week ago Nofrills carried these “three packs” of salmon for $10. Now the same pack contains two for the same $10. I thought it felt light when I bought it yesterday.

This comes to about $0.02 increase per gram, and a $1.10 price increase overall. Or a 11% increase in price overall. Meanwhile inflation is at 6-7%?

    If you are paying a restaurant to make your chef salads and chicken strips you have no reason to complain about price when you can easily make those for 1/4 the cost yourself with ingredients from a grocery store.

      Sometimes a guy just wants to not have to cook and to just go eat some god damn chicken strips

      Apparently even the simplest pleasures in life are luxuries now.

      I’ve never been able to make a single salad for less than the price of a salad at a normal-priced resturaunt, ever. Sure I can make 10 salads for the price of one, but it’s really hard to buy 1/4 a tomato, or 1/2 a head of lettuce from a grocery store.

      “If you like eating at restaursnts once in a while, you deserve not to be able to afford to eat!”

      Fuck off, prick.
