My wife and I shopped there one night and I took note of fresh, skinless, boneless chicken breast. It retailed for $1.99lb US dollars. That was regular price, it was not on sale. We also stopped at the Walmart in Sarnia on the way home. It also has a full grocery. The same product there retailed for $13.54kg Canadian dollars. Raube BeuermanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
