@coupongirl : here the anwser explanations about none lays at shopper and other loblaws banner: it was posted by anne in the blog a couple of days ago also check the blog for great infos and printables coupons
Frito-Lay stops shipping chips to Loblaws stores in pricing dispute. At issue is a dispute over pricing between Frito-Lay Canada and Loblaw Companies Ltd. Frito-Lay, the maker of brands like Cheetos, Doritos, Lays, Ruffles and Sunchips, says it’s trying to recoup higher costs. The situation has left the chip and snack food aisle of many Loblaw stores less full than usual, or stocked with house brands, such as President’s Choice or No Name.
Frito-Lay spokesperson Sheri Morgan confirmed there is a “temporary disruption” with one customer. “Our business has faced unprecedented pressures from rising costs of items including ingredients, packaging and transportation,” she said in an email. “To help offset these pressures on our Canadian operations … we have made adjustments to our prices that are consistent across the marketplace.”
Loblaw spokesperson Catherine Thomas said the grocer is “laser focused” on minimizing retail price increases. “When suppliers request higher costs, we do a detailed review to ensure they are appropriate,” she said in an email. “This can lead to difficult conversations and, in extreme cases, suppliers don’t ship us products.”
The rift between Frito-Lay and Loblaw exposes deepening tensions in Canada’s food industry that many experts say could worsen as supply chain challenges and inflation continue. Some argue that grocery retailers are simply trying to keep sticker prices low for consumers and stop suppliers from using inflation to justify unreasonable price hikes.

Speaking of Dollarama, has anyone noticed the proliferation of Dollar Tree/Dollarama/Dollar Stores?
I've seen 3 pop-up on my common routes this last year. I did read an article about their expansion in preparation for hard economic times.My food may not befit a king, but I eat like a horse.

Good Morning Everyone,
I am trying my best and I think that is how this week is going to go for me.
I tried writing my to-do-list to focus myself and that just lead to me realizing I have over committed myself for this week. There is a lot on this week's to-do-list that is time consuming and needs focus and all my attention so that is going to tricky.
I needed a break this morning so I did up some hand dishes. I am trying my best to stick to my routines and just try to find that feeling of being in control because I know I am spinning.
I am really struggling to be happy with what I am getting done, I am stuck in that trap of what I need to do next and that being my focus. But I am going to consider this a win because I see what is happening. But I also realize this is slightly out of my control as the anxiety has taken over.
I am doing my best to stay positive and take it one step at a time but it is a struggle.
I still need to figure out dinner for tonight, part of me is hoping Mom will make dinner but the other part of me knows that cooking would be a good distraction.
Happy Monday Everyone2022 is going to be my year, the year I find organization in my life and the year I focus on myself,
follow along as tackle day to day life and whatever else 2021 throws at me:

Yes thank you everyone my daughter did get a few answers with her family doctor today ,she is on meds for an infection starting today.The walk in clinic doctor told her to get to the hospital on sat as he thought it may be kidney stones.So i hope the antibiotics help her and she starts to feel better .
I think she may have had a panic attack over all her symptoms ,i wish she was in the same city as i would have taken sebastian as she only had an hour sleep last night ,but she is always calling me .
I feel her job can be overwelming for her at times as it is hard being a single parent and trying to do your job 100% with deadlines .Sassy i feel sometimes for you and her with your demanding jobs,plus hers runs in to evening sometimes due to the time difference.
