Gonna be the old man yelling at the cloud but they lost the plot when the Superbowl format moved away from being 30 second one off art projects like 3 frogs intoning your brand name. If your ad has a multimedia plot I'm out. If you buy 2 minutes you've failed. If you tell a serial story 30s at a time across all 5 hours that's not a Superbowl ad, it's a smurfed YouTube ad.

Fashion Nova is a "Fast fashion" brand that mainly aims at female Instagram models and rap stars. They pop up a few times a year for having SCANDALOUS advertising, here's the latest.

Other companies are now getting their 15 minutes in off the back of M&Ms retiring the M&M polycule or whatever they were. Personally I think the A&W bear should choose not to wear pants a la Donald Duck.
Pants are one thing but other cartoon mascot bears are very clear on whether or not they enjoy wiping their asses, why the silence from Rooty? What are these new pants hiding?

I don't know what's going on here, but the words are not wrong. Distribution prices are still climbing, vendor prices are also climbing. If the grocery store is raising prices, it's not entirely out of greed.

The ‘grocery store’ in question is basically Canadian Wal Mart and the largest food distributor in Canada

having the official corporate twitter angrily arguing with everyone who complains about rising food prices is a dumb marketing move though

Don't forget buying up Shoppers, and then making a pharmacy sell dairy and eggs

We transferred our prescriptions to a London Drugs and the cost of some of them dropped by more than half. Plus while you're there you can buy a new computer monitor, a minifridge, a drone, and if you're very lucky, get some 35mm film photos developed.

(The difference between Shoppers selling groceries and London Drugs being a cut-rate emergency Zellers with a photolab is that London Drugs was always like that. Back in the 90s my dad bought a 56.6 modem for our 386 at a London Drugs)

IIRC, Canadian supermarket chains already got caught in a price fixing scandal some years ago, so there's that.

For further context, the no-name branding is basically a national institution at this point so folks take it a lot more seriously than price raises for just about anything else.

I believe we've always been able to buy milk and eggs at Walgreens and CVS here in the States, at least. Good for unforeseen shortages, especially when the drugstore is open 24 hours.

Drug stores were the original "what 5 items would you use to freak out the cashier" shop before Walmart added housewares to the mix.

Why not pick up a dozen eggs, bengay, astroglide, a bottle of red table wine, and a dozen eggs?
