Finally made it in to town today and after Kathi reported that Walmart
up her way had Pickle Crisp we checked the local store.
They had it too and we picked up two jars. Up here, of course, it's
Bernardin branded.
But, they want $2.49 for a box of 12 Bernardin regular lids!
For the last few years we've been buying our lids at Dollarama and
paying $1.00 a box.
A new Dollarama just opened about 3 stores away from Wally so we
headed directly there to check for lids. Rats, they've gone up 25%
which I figure is a pretty hefty increase in just a year but, at $1.25
a box they're still a good deal so we picked up 20 boxes.

buck twenty-five is what I paid for regular Golden Harvest lids at Big
Lots the other day Ross. Everyone has gone up. I think my US$1.25
actually cost more than your C$1.25 in real money, hard to keep track of
exchange rates anymore.
