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%?
Pretty sure this is Canada, no frills is a franchise chain under Loblaws. Loblaws is the kind of company that increases a product price by 20% and then puts up a “same price everyday” sign to gaslight customers.

Meanwhile Kroger raises their prices and then puts a giant yellow tag on them labeled “Everyday Low Prices”.
It’s not on sale, it’s always more expensive than it was before, but they want you to think it’s a discount.
Cool business move… NOT!
(Should we even be bringing back the ‘not’?)
