The names on the outside are different, but most grocery stores are owned by the same companies — yet CTV News shopped around and found they charge significantly different prices for the same items.

Never heard of that where I am, sounds pretty cool.

Do they have any restrictions preventing “well-off” looking individuals from shopping for the cheaper items, or possibly are these cheaper items a different brand with the same thing lower priced?

They have a store brand for immigrants. So you’ll look in the international aisle and there will be a big tub of T&T branded cashews, which are cheaper, fresher and better than the ones sold in the baking section or beside the bulk section under Club Pack or whatever brand.

You are so ignorant to so many things in that statement.

It looks like I must be cursed ever to remain so because the only person with the insight I clearly need to be a complete human being does not deign to share it, but rather lords it over me like some kind of selfish occultist.

Your comment was less than useless. Next time you feel like telling someone they are stupid without any elaboration, keep it to yourself.
