    Anyone else hear that the price of peanut butter is drastically increasing as of tomorrow? Heard today that the price could triple?? Hopefully that is an exaggeration!

    I'm not in your area, but it has been in the news for months now. Since October, I believe. Due to a drought. If you google it, I'm sure there's tons of news articles still up.

    I guess that would explain why you do not see the peanut butter on sale at $2.49 anymore! The best I have seen is about $1 more...so glad we stocked up in the fall!

    Food Basics had it on for 1.88 a 1 litre jar of Kraft. I stocked up and have a bunch of jars in the freezer.

    I hadn't heard that, but good to know. I normally buy the 1kg of Kraft PB for $2.49 when it's on sale. The best I have seen was 500g Kraft PB at Superstore for $1....that was an excellent price and I stocked up.

    I was just in a Superstore and get a load of these prices.

    500 g Kraft Peanutbutter $4.99
    1 kg Kraft Peanutbutter $3.99 (on Sale)
    2 kg Kraft Peanutbutter $10.99

    Update: Sorry to lead you astray, the 2 kg is $8.69. Our store is in the middle of renovations, so I am guessing the price on the shelf the last time was for something that used to be in that spot.

    What is Peanutbutter like after you take it out of the freezer.
    I tried this will cream cheese and never again. Even thawing it out in the fridge, it goes all crumbly when you cut into it.
    I am hesitant to try it with peanutbutter.

    Shoppers still has their sale price of 2.99 til today for 1 kg if anyone needs peanut butter. I suspect the next best price for peanut butter will be 3.99/1 kg on sale in the future.

    Sobey's flyer for Feb. 10-16 has 750g - 1 kg Kraft Peanut Butter on for $2.99.
    WM's flyer has Finish Powerball dishwasher tabs (25 pk) on for $4.97. There's a $2.00 coupon in this week's SmartSource insert. $2.97 is not a bad deal!
    I received my red/pink bag of flyers yesterday.
