Just for perspective:
Middle of July whole chickens were on sale. I bought 6 of them.

View attachment 927088

This is the last one.

4 portions, $1.08 each
$4.32!?!?!?!?!

Daaaaaaaamn, I need to take a trip to Ontario for my next round of groceries. Cheapest I've seen these dive up here in the Yukon is $10-11 and I usually buy a couple at that price. Normally, they're $17-$20.

You guys are noobs. Go to grocery stores that price match and use the cashback cc that gives you the highest % on groceries.

Also buy bitcoin, you noobs. How on earth have none of you at least bought some BTCC in your tfsa's?

I gave you all the recipe for financial freedom and instead you guys made chili

Hunt your own food
I could and have but I don't enjoy hunting. I'll eat meat but don't want to do the killing and/or butchering myself.

I also know a lot of peeps that would tell you they've spent far more getting set up for hunting and making the trips out, than they save by getting the animals. Or in a lot of cases, going and not getting said animal lol.

Bro, seriously, I was joking. Nothing you can do about the prices in Yukon, my man. That said I think it's time to move from Yukon.

Hahaha well then. Derpa derpa. Hunting is a pretty common activity here, so I took ya literally lol. I have done it and my brother goes out every year, but it's not really a money savings thing, especially with everyone hunting like they camp now with equipment galore. Great for kickin it in the bush with friends, but there's a saying that getting the kill ruins the hunt and that's about where I land.

We do get some good benefits here too, so probably not the full story, but ya, food prices are the shits.

This is an example of one meal with the help of my garden that I managed to make for $.67 per portion. You could do that too but it appears you would prefer to waste money where ever you can. You also seem to assume we are eating chili for 5 nights straight. lol Ever heard of a freezer?

When was the last time you asked a prisoner if he was well fed?

lol


I clearly stated before I have a garden. You're laughing at me because I figured out how to reduce my cost?

Along time ago there used to be this thing that was delivered to your house each week by kids or sometimes adults called flyers. They would tell you when stores that sold things like food would go on sale, Many people were angry because they looked at it as junk and would just stick to their routine of going to the same store every other week and spend money on what ever they wanted and would just pay the bill. Some people though would look at those flyers and notice some places have better prices for stuff than other and noted that if they bought certain things from certain places they could actually save money. Then a terrible thing happened, most houses stopped receiving flyers. Luckily while that was happening the internet came to the rescue and gave people even more flyers to look through and again save money. What's great is you don't have to blindly go to each grocery store in the city to find a deal.

Thank you Internet.


You're welcome.

Here in the Czech Republic we have a site like this that's searchable too. Search for your ingredient and you can see everywhere it's on sale and for how much and until when. Great if I know specifically what I want as opposed to going to one store and judging what's on sale
