Up untill a week ago Nofrills carried these “three packs” of salmon for $10. Now the same pack contains two for the same $10. I thought it felt light when I bought it yesterday.

This comes to about $0.02 increase per gram, and a $1.10 price increase overall. Or a 11% increase in price overall. Meanwhile inflation is at 6-7%?

    Perhaps the people whose job it is to know shit a actually do know shit

      People will just tell you “Ah, that’s the excuse they gave you to not raise you to match the inflation”.

      And we won’t and can’t know who’s right until we know who you work for and what’s their past and current financial output.

        I know who is right because I’m not some bottom-tier employee parroting what I’ve heard. My job requires me to work with our finance team, M&A team, COO, and SG&A team as part of overarching strategy.
