Target prices in the west higher

Next week Target flyer May 31-June 6 Windsor Black Diamond cheese 500g $3.77 and Red Deer is $4.88,Windsor Tropicana juice $2.99 and Red Deer is $3.49,Windsor Cashmere 12 pack toilet paper $3.49 and Red Deer Purex 12 pack toilet paper $4.99 and there coupon stacking is non existent coupons at target.ca that are name brands are manufacturer coupons and Target brands have no manufacturer except Target so no coupon stacking.I was actually softening towards shopping at Target but no more.I just bought one item.I would rather stick with getting west higher prices at old stores and stacking at some stores than shop at Target.

Prices in the West are almost always higher than in Central Canada. Doesn't seem to matter which retailer it is, we pay more out here....

You have a higher cost of living than we do. Wages tend to be higher, and so is the cost of housing and goods.

I've noticed in many of the West flyers that the prices are usually $1 or $2 higher than what we pay. We also don't have coupon stacking here.

Eh but we pay 5% tax in AB, it all evens out in the end

yup much higher out west in BC it's always higher then back east yes we have stacking but stacking was questionable until just a few weeks ago.. and i wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't last

Don't be too upset.

being in BC & AB is still far better than being in ON and saving a few cents here and there :)

Interesting thing about wages though is that it all depends on who you work for. I would for a big bank-owned firm and the wage scales for every position are the same no matter where you live. I do get ticked off sometimes at the higher prices out here in the West, but really, it is what it is....and I love living where I do.
