In order to help our readers cope with, among other things, the repercussions of rising food prices, our new collaborator Myriam Gendron, creator of the site Simply eatoffers a low-cost menu every week based on the best grocery discounts of the week.
Week from November 28 to December 4
For this Black Friday week, we’re leaving room for specials. For once it’s worth it when it comes to grocery shopping (especially for meats)… and the discounts are on something we really need!
December is upon us, but it’s not too late if you haven’t yet started shopping for your menu! Here are the stars of the week in anticipation of the holiday season:
· Assortment of 10 packages of house brand frozen fondue meat (2.6 kg case) at $45 for Scène+ members (Friday November 29 and Saturday November 30 only) at IGA (best price)
· Top sirloin steaks at $5.77/lb at IGA (best price)
· Cubes of beef bourguignon at $5.77/lb at IGA
· Frozen turkey at $1.44/lb at Super C
· Fresh pork shanks at $2.77/lb at Super C (best price)
It’s the best special in over a year on fondue meat!
Turkey is at its second best price of the year, steak and beef cubes are excellent bases for a pie… and pork shanks, perfect for pig’s feet stew, are at their best down !
· Private label butter (454 g) for $4.87 at Walmart
· Flour (10 kg) at $11.99 at Maxi
· White sugar (2 kg) at $1.97 for Scène+ members at IGA (best price)
