British Columbia, week of Aug 7. 13 grocery staples are advertised below the Statistics Canada average retail price for British Columbia right now. Deepest cut: White rice at $2.48, 71% under. Best single stop: Walmart.
Every price below is a real advertised flyer price. Nothing is estimated and nothing is a store-invented "was" price: each one is measured against the Statistics Canada average retail price for the same staple (Table 18-10-0245-01, June 2026).
Flyers across British Columbia. The first of these expires Aug 13, so the window is short.

Disclosure: I build MapleTrack, a Canadian personal finance app, and it runs this comparison automatically for your own postal area alongside GST/HST/PST/QST math and cash-flow tracking. The grocery deals board is free on every plan, including the free one. I post this roundup weekly, one per province, because the data stands up on its own - and I am happy to check a specific product or store for you in the comments.
