I think the reason I blame them is because it's their fault, but I'm not Canadian, so I don't count.

My partner works at a Sobeys doing file maintenance and she does all the price and label changes. She regularly shows me pictures of shrinkflation and price gouging. Some things doubled in price overnight.

It's crazy and she says it's a little bit depressing. And unlike a normal shopper, she's aware of all the deals as well, so that's nice for us.

Hope you get an employee discount too. I loved that when I worked at Sprouts. Of course they maxed me out at 39.9 hours every week. So I kinda got a discount in lieu of healthcare, but still, I liked the perk

If you care about what happens in Canada, that counts for something.
