Amid soaring prices at grocery stores, a new survey has found that 24 per cent of Canadians have had to cut back on the amount of food they were buying.
There�s not many people who can just carry on without changing their buying patterns. I wouldn�t be surprised to hear that that was a very low number compared to reality.
That's what I thought as well. I almost started a poll on this post but had trouble wording the possible choices to respond to.
We don't go to multiple stores based on flyer deals but we do notice when something we use anyway is on a good deal and buy an extra one if it's reasonable. We are simple eaters anyway so are not too impacted by price increases. We have become more conscious about using up perishables before they go bad and more often take a look at what we have to determine what to make for meals and this creativity can be kind of fun since we both like to cook.

I'm sure that nearly everyone has taken some measures to cope with rising prices.
Yes, when I could no longer afford bread, I started buying cake.
Seriously though, we were always careful when it came to grocery shopping, and we try to buy as much as possible when it's on sale.
