I bought a ton of stuff from Flashfood this month — more than usual!  Lots of groceries but lots of household staples too like toilet paper and items I needed for a 60-person party!

Flashfood is what I use to offset my family’s budget by purchasing things that stores can’t sell (either they’re nearing the “best before date” or because they have an excess of inventory they want to eliminate from the store).  Enzo’s provided that for me this month — nothing was short-dated; they simply wanted to remove things from their store as they were changing ownership. ^_^

Loblaws Richmond Hill:

• Mixed Produce Box (4 bags of limes) $3.  Paid $3.17.

I was in a rush when I bought this, thinking it was avocados instead.  I gave them away to friends instead; we have too many limes and lemons at home still from previous produce boxes.

  • Paid $5.27 for nine items.

I actually purchased four of the thin egg noodles as they are our family’s favourite kinds of noodles but when I went to pick up my order, they were missing.  Thus, the store gave me an extra pack of “chow mian” instead and then I asked for the money back of the two other packs.  Such a great deal of noodles!  Each pack has a large quantity of noodles too.

  • Paid $24.81 for nine items.

What a deal!  Look at how cheap the cashews are!  They were priced that low because the tub was dented on the outside!  They have a “best before” date of 2027!  Perfectly fine to eat!

The pork rinds were new to me and so I thought I’d try it.  Great snack!  Surprisingly, the kids like it too.
