Very good rant
I'm in Southern Ontario as well.
Did you post the rant about cheap products? I remember a really good rant from last year where someone (I think it was you) mentioned how all the stuff we buy is complete junk.

I agree with so much you have to say here, good rant! I'm also in the Southern Ontario and it seems like everything is just going up price wise, pretty damn ridiculous if you ask me.
As for $4 Hothouse tomatoes, not sure where you buying your produce from but I've never seen them for that price each or per/lb. I usually get all my stuff from Freshco. You ever bought there? Tomatoes aren't in season now, but in summer months I can get them anywhere from 65c-75c / pound - Ontario product. I always bargain hunt for in-season products.

I think it depends what type of bread you buy and where. I buy Country Harvest Sunflower and Flax Bread. This bread can cost $2.50-$4.25 depending where you go and if it's on sale. But I can usually get the same bread a lot in the cheaper range I quoted at places like Giant Tiger or similar places that actually carry this brand.
Regular commercial bread (Wonderbread) can go for as cheap as $1.69. That's the stuff that might have L-Cysteine though (derived from human hair in China) so I don't eat that stuff.
You can get cheap milk too if you're willing to go to Wal-Mart or Giant Tiger. Luckily I live close to places like this and can save money by shopping from the evil corporations. At least Giant Tiger is Canadian owned though, but their stores are disappearing.
