ive had zero problems with it. in fact every canadian item ive bought over previous american purchases are far cheaper.

my wife keeps a list, and price compares everything, its her talent.

we have saved a shit load of money so far because the items we buy are cheaper, we also buy less overall, and find ways to recycle or upcycle things we own, and as far as groceries go we save our leftovers and meal prep, allowing us to have healthier, cheaper meals, that we cook to taste. we bake our own bread, make our own pasta, we make our own broth from bones and vegetables to can for various uses.

its been extremely rewarding so far.

you just gotta get creative with it. i find the joy it brings far outweighs the minute increase in difficulty while shopping.

No name mustard from the states is cheaper, than the rest of the mustard on the shelf. That might be one of the few exceptions.
