Now that the dollar has gone up shopping in the US has become a better deal! Great buys, especially the chicken breast; the cheapest I've seen in Canada is $2.99 a pound.

Awesome deals-gotta love the price of milk and eggs-I'll never understand why we have to pay so much-it just don't add up....Thumbs up to you.

If you want to find US coupons - check out a website called DealSeekingMom.com - lots of connections to printables and advice about how to "stack" and where to find good deals.

Have to see if I could get the day off work. If not, then I'll go Saturday. Of course most of the good deals will be gone, but still worth going.

At the new walmart supercentre right next to the factory outlet mall of niagara on military road. Very close to the Lewiston border crossing
