Exciting Deals for Valentine’s Day
Whenever a significant event approaches, retailers tend to roll out exceptional discounts and promotions. We recently witnessed this phenomenon with the Super Bowl festivities.
This week, as we gear up to celebrate Valentine’s Day, several unique and enticing offers have emerged. It’s encouraging to observe a constant enhancement in options for consumers eager to support local products, as they are becoming more prominently featured in flyers and on the websites of major retailers.
Featured Offers You Can’t Miss
Let’s kick things off with a fantastic deal on Canadian Steelhead trout fillet, priced at just $7.77 per pound at Maxi. It’s quite common to find trout or salmon priced under $10 per pound, but coming across them below $9 is less frequent, and below $8 is truly exceptional. This is a remarkable find, especially for a Canadian product, since much of the farmed trout or salmon available tends to originate from South America, particularly Chile.
Next up in the realm of proteins, we have Grizzly salmon or tuna tartare available in a 140g package for $6.99 at Super C. Typically, this product retails for around $9.99 in flyers. In fact, we’ve only seen it at this reduced price three times last year, and each time it was at Super C. Additionally, it’s worth noting that this item is prepared locally by a Quebec company.
Shifting focus to fruits and vegetables, you can grab a 454g basket of Mexican strawberries for just $2.44 at IGA. There are plenty of strawberry options available this week, with Maxi and Provigo pricing them at $2.49, while Walmart lists them at $2.84. Although these strawberries are primarily sourced from Mexico, they sometimes come from the United States, so be sure to check the packaging if that matters to you.
Returning to local products, Canadian English cucumbers are priced at an attractive $0.99 at Super C. This is an excellent deal for a locally grown item. To sweeten the pot, Maxi and Provigo are offering them for just one cent more, making it a great opportunity for shoppers.
As winter evenings continue, many are seizing the chance to cook at home. For those baking enthusiasts, Five Roses or Robin Hood flour is available at Super C for $11.97 for a 10kg bag. This is a fantastic offer, especially for private brands, as the regular price is $19.99, resulting in a substantial discount that hasn’t been seen since the start of the year.
For Valentine’s Day, IGA is promoting a 454g can of chocolate fondue from Chocolats Favoris for $12.99, which is a compelling price for this format. This deal is even sweeter when you consider the bonus offer of a complimentary 454g basket of strawberries, normally priced at $2.44. It’s the perfect Valentine’s treat!
Continuing the Valentine’s Day theme, the Monsieur Gustav raclette cheese platter is available for $13.99 at IGA. Although it may not seem particularly striking at first glance, this offer comes with a free sliced charcuterie or a Fantino & Mondello dry salami valued at $7.49. With this bonus, the offer becomes significantly more appealing, especially since it features a product processed in Quebec.
Let’s not forget about fondues! Super C is offering Canton broth in a 1.1L container for just $2.99, a rare find indeed. The last time this was available at such a price was during the holiday season. This suggests that exceptional offers for this product are usually reserved for holidays or Valentine’s Day, so it might be wise to stock up while you can!
Finally, the timing is perfect for enjoying Chinese fondue beef, which is also available at a great price. You can pick up a trio of 250g trays for only $15 at Maxi. While many retailers have deals for this product, this particular offer stands out as the best, costing just $5 per package. Wishing you a delightful Valentine’s Day filled with love and great food!
