BOYCOTT

Visited today, only got 1 loss leader using points. It seems that consumer
traffic is similar to old times now. Hopefully, it is a temporary loss.

The group needs to do something concerted post their earnings call. We missed
Canada day as a solidarity event, similar to May June 12th. I guess the apathy
from sold-off presstitutes and wrong reporting is one big reason (E.g. It is
over, it was only months long) .

Old habits, do die hard :( .

[PUBLIC STATEMENT] Removal of multi-buy deals at No Frills stores
u/loblawsoutofctrlMODS

ADMIN MOD • 17 hr. ago [PUBLIC STATEMENT] Removal of multi-buy deals at No
Frills stores
Moderator Post

We are excited to see Loblaw follow through on their commitment to remove
multi-buy discounts at No Frills stores, as we know every penny counts for many
of our peers. We commend this action as a step in the right direction, however,
do not wish for our community to forget there is plenty of work to be done in
addressing the issue of food security for Canadians. We are disappointed it only
appears in No Frills stores, but hope this can expand to other stores in future,
and serve as a best practice for other grocers in the industry.

Thank you, Mods

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nous sommes très heureux d'apprendre que Loblaw ait décidé d'aller de l'avant
avec leur engagement d'éliminer les rabais à achat multiple dans leurs magasins
No Frills, comme nous savons que chaque sous compte pour plusieurs d'entre nous.
Nous les félicitons pour ce changement comme un pas dans la bonne direction
mais, nous souhaitons que la communauté n'oublie pas qu'il reste encore beaucoup
de travail à faire pour s'attaquer à la sécurité alimentaires des Canadiens.
Nous sommes déçus que cette politique ne s'applique que dans les magasins No
Frills, mais espérons que cela puisse s'étendre à d'autres épiceries à l'avenir
et que cela serve d'exemple de bonne pratique pour d'autres chaînes dans
l'industrie.

Merci, Mods

Posted before? Possibly. But spreading the word always helps!

Tell people you know about this; it is still Loblaws, just under a different
name. Remember; a turd is still a turd, no matter what you cover it in to hide

Reminder: ask for rain checks
u/Beepbeepboobop1

ADMIN MOD • 1 day ago Reminder: ask for rain checks
Cost Saving Tip

This is not meant to be condescending. I just wanted to remind people to ask for
rain checks when a sale item they want is sold out. Afaik most stores will
honour this.

I’ve been wanting to buy some cherry tomatoes that were are on sale at Food
Basics (I do the bulk of my shopping there) but they’ve consistently been empty
on the shelf for 3 days now. Asked the cashier for a rain check-initially she
said no, but then decided to check the rain check book and they were in fact a
listed item. On top of that, because it was a rain check I get an additional 10%
off the sale price when I do pick them up next.

So take advantage of the rain check system and (politely) ask cashiers to double
check if they try to dismiss you immediately.

Shoppers Drug Mart Points Scam
u/Coutoria

Rant

I was at my local Shoppers the other day (Lowblaws) for some bobby pins. A pack
of 90 was advertised that you get a bonus 6000 points if you spend $35. I was
like, ok, I’m def spending more that $35 in the store. Checkout and no points
applied. Turns out I have to spend $35 on these bobby pins, not on anything in
the store! So at $6.49 a pack, they are expecting me to buy 540 bobby pins. No
woman would ever need to buy that many at once. It’s just such a mind f*ck.

RULES

1


BE RESPECTFUL

Remember there is a human on the other side of your comments. Personal attacks
nor insults will not be tolerated.

2


KEEP THINGS REASONABLY LIGHT

We know things are tough right now for a lot of us. With this being said, we
kindly ask users to avoid sharing very personal details or sob stories.

For example: “Things are tough for my family right now because of some personal
circumstances that have come up” is ok “I don’t know how I’m going to survive,
my nephews pet hamster died in a marching band accident and the cost of the
funeral is too much for me” is not ok

Please see our pinned post or sidebar for mental health resources.

3


STAY ON TOPIC

The sub was created to point out how absolutely absurd the cost of groceries are
right now and have some fun together. We know this will inevitably touch on
other topics related to the cost of living. Do your best to keep the
conversation on topic

4


NO OFF-TOPIC POLITICS

Please refrain from off-topic political discussion and debate. Everyone is
entitled to their own political opinions, however, if your politically charged
statement is not directly related to the cost of living/groceries/gas/rents, it
will be removed at mod discretion.

Something like "Prime Minister X is a proponent of XYZ which resulted in this
increase to cost of living" is okay.

Something like "TruDUMB is a filthy liar!!!!" Is not.

5


NO COVID CONSPIRACIES

Please, for the love of the Overlord, no discussions of vaccination status,
conspiracies of the "plandemic" or any other public policy related to the COVID
Pandemic/Vaccination Debate.

Discussion of vaccination status, lockdowns, etc. which are not DIRECTLY related
to the topic of cost of living increases will be removed.

6


FLAIR SATIRE APPROPRIATELY

Please flair Satirical articles and images with the "Satire" Post Flair.

7


NO SPAM

Please do not spam the sub with the same content.

Furthermore, please do your best to use the search function and engage on a post
instead of reposting.

8


USER SHAMING

Rhetoric intended to shame certain generations or users for "not working hard
enough" including ideas like "just pull yourselves up by the bootstraps" and
"just don't shop there" and it's kin are not welcome here. We aren't going to
waste time arguing that we are seeing an affordability crisis like we have never
seen before. If you are bothered by this fact, and want to yell at millennials
because they're "snowflakes that just need to work harder", please go seek
refuge in another sub.

9


NO ANTI-IMMIGRANT RHETORIC

Anti-Immigrant sentiment including blaming refugees, immigrants, permanent
residents, international students and so on for the current affordability crisis
is not welcome here.

General anti-immigrant rhetoric is also not allowed.

Discussions around the foreign home buyer's tax may be allowed at moderator
discretion.

10


ENCOURAGING THEFT/MISCHIEF/VIOLENCE

Please do not encourage users to steal items from any store. This includes but
is not limited to: encouraging reuse of discount stickers, theft, and
intentional damage to products.

These can result in criminal charges which we do not want for the user base.

Additionally, encouraging violence is absolutely prohibited and bans will be
implemented depending on the severity of statements made.

11


NO ADVERTISING

There are plenty of subs to advertise on. This isn’t one of them.

12


BOYCOTT BREAKING

Not everyone has to participate or agree with the community boycott, but we ask
that everyone is constructive in their feedback about this event.

Accounts posting repetitive, negative feedback such as "this will never work"
and the like, which are aimed at "breaking" the boycott and community morale
will be banned until the boycott is complete.

13


NO PM'ING MODS

Please use modmail for any community related matters, NOT the moderators'
personal messages, and/or following them to other communities.

Bans will be implemented depending on severity of message.

14


NO MISINFORMATION

Misinformation is prohibited. Please provide sources for claims made.
