superstore still has the cheapest baby spinach you can buy....1 kg for $6ish
Costco eggs (36 for $10ish) and egg whites (2L for $10ish)
I buy all my beef from a single farmer in Alberta or restaurant hookups for bulk order.
Chicken I buy from Costco (3 whole chickens for $30 bucks, I trim/section myself) or 8 breasts for $27ish
Pork I buy from T&T when it's on sale....I track prices in a separate spreadsheet
Anytime I want fresh/quality meat, I go to local butchers in surrey/langely...I know a few guys
All produce I buy from Greenfield's or Farm Fresh in Surrey. You cannot beat their prices ($1 for a bag of broccoli, $1.50 / head of cauliflower, $1 box of strawberries....etc)
Soy/Almond milk I buy from SS or Pricelow (whoever has the best price)
All my pastas/italian food I get imported thru a restaurant supplier ($1 / pack of pasta, $27.kg of 3yr parm...etc)
Obviously any specialty asian stuff I go to T&T or H mart.
Superstore still has the cheapest spices (cayenne, dried herbs, garlic, etc)
Superstore bulk for my cous cous or bulgar.
Cheese....states. I live close to the border, so it's a 10 min drive to pick up a block of tillamook cheese for 9.99 USD
Me and wife eat pretty damn good, don't really go out to eat unless it's something I don't know how to cook or I don't have the equipment to make it.
Roughly spending $480 - $500 per month, including any eating out together.
