I personally think that issue with prices is greed. If I can import something from USA, pay postage, GST and save 40-50% then purchasing in my local store in Australia... How the hell Costco, who has only few petrol stations in Australia, can constantly sale their petrol 20-40 cents per litre cheaper then Woolworths or Coles who have petrol stations on every corner? Immigration is not problem, Australians are not going to be hungry. Apparently Queensland itself produces enough food for 100 million people. Often you hear on TV eg. Cherrys are overabundant and then you go to shop and they charge 20$ per kg. People,do yourselves favours and stop getting your shopping at supermarkets. Do business at smaller shops,and shop around. You can get 5kg of potatoes for 5$ or you can get 2kg French fries for 12$+ Yeah, require bit work,but you can invest in commercial grade French fries cutting machine that will last forever and will pay itself in few months.

Grocery shopping as a single person you have to get creative, buy items you can freeze since lots of produce is difficult to eat fast enough before they go bad. $100 won't get you much groceries. What's sad is that the Dollar Stores used to also be a good option to buy some food, not anymore.

We shouldn't be paying tax on any food, including so-called junk food. Food is food. Go to an undeveloped country and tell them that certain kinds of food is junk. When the GST was introduced I was just a young kid. We were told that it would not affect food, clothing, and other essentials. Then they slowly started taxing us on it as the years went by. Carbon tax? That's a way for them to tax the rest of the food that they can't get away with calling junk food. So in other words, it's the tax on veggies and fruits, meats and dairy. As far as you know it, carbon tax. It's the farmers paying into it, thus that price being passed onto us.

The situation is similar here. When you adjust the prices it’s not that much different at a regular grocery store in the US for many items. Krogers is the largest owner of grocery stores in the US although they aren’t all called Krogers. We shop mostly at Aldi which is definitely cheaper than Krogers but about the same as Walmart and Target which are also major sellers of groceries. By the way the color of eggs has nothing to do with nutritional value. What may matter is how the chickens are raised. Food quality, space etc.

Russian supermarkets are full of food stolen from Ukraine. And Russia doesn't have distributors and suppliers and they don't pay farmers for the goods being sold. In Canada, produce, chicken, beef all comes from local farmers who are paid a fair price for their food so it's why we pay a bit more. Climate change has also been affecting crops so farmers have been charging suppliers and stores more for their food so the stores have to slightly increase prices for us. It's called mark up. Also not to mention rubles are worth literally nothing in Canadian dollars.

Why did Canadian vote liberal Trudeau back in office. Under prime minister Harper was better. Some young people eating greens to save money if any up there. Sad it is getting too costly to live there. Some moving to the states. More people living in USA driving food cost and other things too in USA! Lots of talk not enough action to cool off high food cost. Now Walmart food cost going up again in Oct 2024.We all are getting poorer. And not much of a raise! We need real HELP! Less talk more action on inflation!

I have never considered Fortinos to be middle or upper middle class. Fortinos is known to be one of the expensive stores. Upper middle class is the regular Loblaws stores. I find Fortinos to be the highest priced items in the Loblaws brands. I used to Instacart so I see prices and see how much things cost on the regular.

Fortinos is upper middle class. I don’t think you can group it in the same category as high class stores such as McEwan, Bruno’s, Pusateri’s, Whole Foods, etc. Price-wise, unless there is a good sale somewhere, retail pricing is similar to most other stores such as NoFrills, Walmart, etc.
@Thejazzerc

@KouroshKamyabi I wouldn't compare sale prices at Walmart/No Frills/Food Basics/ Frescho prices to a sale at Fortinos. It's still quite a significant difference. I stopped Instacarting this year, and I honestly notice who purchases what in each store. Fortinos, you guarantee that these will go to a massive house in a super rich area. While it is as expensive as McEwens and I have shopped for customers there, it is a little misleading to show prices at Fortinos bc most people will not shop at Fortinos and people will tend to shop at the cheaper stores to reflect the true prices of what most Canadians pay.

When I buy olive oil I look for the cold pressed. This is important and why you pay more. I would say close to $85.00. Wow! $109.00. You shop at high end stores and the Italian stores are very expensive. Fortino's, and Longo's, expensive, more so than Lob Laws, Soby's or Metro. I live in Mississauga and my hubby is Italian. I know we are being gouged no matter where we shop. Walmart is one of the worst for gouging us.

Foods from grocery stores should be vegetables, dairy, milk, eggs, flour, sugar, butter and meats. People should really stop of being lazy and cook more themselves, stop buying pre-made foods, frozen foods etc. I paid in my town 2 weeks ago for 18 eggs and they were 6.29$, 4 liter of milk 3.25% for 7.29$, 2 lettuces for 0.99 cents, butter at 4.99$ each so i bought 20 X 454 grams and frozen them in my freezer, i had cans of corn, green beans etc at 0.89 cents each and grab 24 of each etc. Chips, soft drinks, beer are not needed in every day life, they are fun once in a while but not regularly either. People need to prioritize their own priorities and not fall into the trap of consumption either, come back to reality.

You can't forget the stuff we pay 15% sales tax on. As for butter, it's roughly $6-9 dollars. Six bucks, if you're lucky, and it's either on sale or cheap quality No Name brand.

That bill is so insane. I had to rewatch the video to see watch you bought. Tips......making kefir and hummus are super easy and cheap. Don't buy process foods which you can make at home cheaply. The tomatoes were ridiculous, rather go without. The chips, not only expensive but some of the most toxic foods you can eat. Gnocchi, again so cheap and better to make at home. Olive oil, need to check as 80% are fake or blended. If you didn't include the Epson salts, tomatoes, hummus and kifir, the bill would have been at least CAD 25 cheaper. Bottom line.....the more it's processed and " convenient ", the more you pay.
