The difference between prices of the same in-house brand snack foods at two Loblaw-owned stores has caused a stir online, with some customers blaming the company for “price gouging” and others pointing out why one store may be more expensive.
The items in question are the No Name regular ripple cut chips and the PC Kettle Corn found on shelves at Superstore and Shoppers Drug Mart
Both No Name and President’s Choice are in-house brands at select Loblaw stores.
One eagle-eyed shopper snapped a photo of the chips at Superstore, which were priced at $1.49. At Shoppers Drug Mart, they noticed the chips were more expensive at $2.79, but are currently on sale for $1.99.
