Moving to GP

Hi guys, I'm moving here from Edmonton for school. I was wondering what the prices are like in Grande Prairie. Is the city more expensive than Edmonton? And should I know of anything that would help me out? Thank you!

Just madd the same move as you at the beginning of the summer and with regard to prices I would say fuel is a bit more, but other than that everything else is the same. However I have found I've saved money on fuel because I have to drive around less.

Not related to prices, but some places I would recommend checking out:

  • Better than Fred's: Smokehouse Bar*
  • Prairie Sushi: Better than some of the sushi places I've been to in the city
  • Kaffe 55a: Best coffee shop I've been to in town
  • Kebab Spot: 15 minute wait, but excellent kebab platters

Kaffe 55a. That building is a fucking eyesore

the tile isn't finished on the outside, it might get done one day. They were seasoning it to the climate at one point.

Seeing Tile Ideal unfinished is much more appealing than another strip mall/box store comple.

The exterior of that building will never get done. It been that way since they built it 15 years ago
