Is this possible to pricematch with FS/BB? Or will they feed me a load of crap and tell me it's a cupcake?

I highly doubt it'd be price matchable.

Assuming this applies to Fortinos as well? Are we talking Groceries and Electronics or just Electronics? If we're talking both my parents will take me to the one on Main West in an instant.

I'm not sure. It might be both? Just tell them to do their grocery shopping that day just in case =P

Well I just got back from my local Superstore, and they were charging tax. So I guess this is an Eastern Canada thing <_<

yeah its between 5pm and close.
When is close today? 6:00 p.m.?
A good strategy is to go in at say 4:00 and get all of your items, then check out at 5 to save time. Plus, you would have a better chance at getting more of the item you want if you shop early.
Two Coke cases for $5 anyone? :applause:

Every SS around here closes at 10pm every night. If you want to avoid lines DO NOT go in at 4-6pm, it's always nuts then on normal days. Go in an hour before closing, there usually aren't even lines.
between 5 and close today, if you just went, is that between 5pm and close?
Yeah, I got through checkout at around 9:45pm.

lol, I had the same strategy. But my dad said screw it and just went during the morning (we just needed simple stuff like bread).
