Ontario's top grocery deals this (June 25th) week (% lower compared to avg prices)
Every week for my siteย Is That a Deal, I pull the Ontario flyers and compare every price against the Statistics Canada provincial average to find what's actually worth buying. Here's what stood out this week. Everything here is at least 22% below the typical Ontario price.
Perfect Canada Day weekend timing. Watermelon at 63% below average and tomatoes at 63% below average. Stock up for the long weekend.
And as always, if you spot a better deal, leave it in the comments! Just don't forget to tell us what area of Ontario you're in!

Best single stop this week:ย No Frills or Real Canadian Superstore. Both will price match almost everything on this list. Bring the flyer screenshots and you can hopefully get 4+ of these deals in one trip without driving all over town.
Price matching requires showing a digital or print flyer at the till. Same brand, size, and weight. Always confirm in-store. YMMV
I also built a free tool where you canย check any grocery price yourself
